Webkinz Jrs. For Seniors... Hmmm.

[webkinlover5678]

Well, Hello there everyone! I have an awesome suggestion for everyone who are Webkinz fans. Well, here's my story:

About 7:00 PM EDT on Monday, after dance class, I went to my local gift shop down the road, and I was looking in the Kinz section, and I thought about the Webkinz Jr. I thought, hey, I like soft stuffed animals, (Since I am not too old) And a nice animal to sleep with at night, so I thought about getting one! Then, my mom and I said, well, they don't really have much of a selection, so we are going to the other gift shop tomorrow. But that is not all! I got home, did some research on the Jrs. website, and just discovered, Webkinz Jr. is WAY more fun compared to our Webkinz World. This may sound REALLY REDICULOUS!!!!!!! But it's true. Before I go and spend money on whatever I am getting, I want to know your opinion! Please be totally honest, and think about your answers!


Thanks so much for your time, and don't forget to PoSt!

If you have questions about this, you may want to check out the Webkinz Jr. section of the forum. Their is a lot of great info there that could help you in your decision.

My whole family loves Webkinz, and we each have a Webkinz account except the baby. One of my children has a Webkinz Jr. account also, and she loves it because she can maneuver the screens and play the games by herself once I get her logged in. I don't mind helping her with that account, because it is very cute. The games are great fun for her, and her next oldest sister likes to play them, too. I like the Webkinz Jr. loveys because they are so big and soft, and I wouldn't discourage you getting one just to collect. I would be concerned that you would quickly tire of the games, though, unless you have a little sister, brother, cousin, etc. to play with. Little kids get a sense of accomplishment from them; without that, I would be surprised if they held your interest after the novelty of the account wears off. (I can't ask you how old you are, but pretty much anyone old enough to type is not going to be excited that she found and clicked on three Cs on the screen.) Decorating options are severely limited (and very glitchy right now). So...the site is cute, and the loveys are cute, but I wouldn't say the Webkinz Jr. site is cooler or more fun unless you're little enough for the games to be developmentally appropriate.

I have an orange cat that I have had since they came into the store...I am still afraid that I am going to get TOTALLY hooked on the Junior site, so I have refrained from adopting. I LOVE the At Paw Level playing field. none of this looking into a box thing. The games (of course) are made to be easier to handle for the little ones and it is all so bright and vibrant. It truly is an attractive virtual pet venue.

I like the viewing field, also. It makes it really cute.
I have a brown puppy named Scruffy, who I
absolutely adore! I agree with you, the Jr.
website totally rocks. I love changing my
setting in the Parent account, also. I go from
Pre-School to Enriched Kindergarten to see
how different the levels are. And did you know
that you can change your pet's name? This may
be a feature that GANZ needs to add to the original
Webkinz site. Thanks for listening to my opinion,
and I hope you have as much of a blast as I do on
the Jr. site.

My dd is young for it but understands it so i have given her one for her b'day she loved it but it deopends on what you want it is m,ade for liittle ones but if you want to get one that is your option. I for one loove the animal but am not in the age range for what it helps with it s a fun way for kids to learn is how I might explain it but if you would llike to have the plush then just seell the code on ebay I liove the little plushes and you might find it in my room sometimes but they are extremly soft and cute.

I think it is really your option on whether you decide to get it or not.But i think it might be to litle for you but that's my choice me and my mom both have an ac**** and we love ww we dont have a webkinz jr. acount but love the plushes!

[tarsky781]

jj8, do you play on it with your DD to see what it's like? I am definitely not in the age range for them, but I might get an orange cat, they're so cute

[iluvginger33]

yeah, it does seem pretty awesome! ganz should add more fun things like that to Webkinz!

Hehe, I haven't heard much rave about Webkinz Jr. I mean, I've heard it's good, but not amazing like Webkinz World. Personally, I love WW way more. But that's my opinion.
