 KIDS LOVE IT! April 15, 2008
I really can't say enough about the Webkinz. Both of kids (boy 5 & girl 10) really enjoy playing with their animals. They really are a great gift and I've seen in both kids more repsonsibility with taking care of the stuffed animals and keeping up with everything that goes with them. They really are happy with the Webkins line and so am I.
 Fun, but know what you are getting into when you buy one of these! April 9, 2008
First of all, the husky is very cute, and my five year old boy is in love with it, and the idea of selling cute stuffed animals that have a second life in a web world for kids is brilliant. But, know what you are getting into when you by one of these.
First, you'll of course have to get the pet "adopted" on the Webkinz web site. Then, you'll have to study the online user manual for the Webkinz web site because unless your child has a certain reading ability, maybe fourth grade, they won't be able to read it all by themselves.
Then of course, you'll have to teach your child what you learned. You might be with your child for a few hours at this site while you both learn your way around. With a five year old it is going to take a while. Of course, you may view it as a bonding experience, so it's not all bad, but there is a time commitment you make when you get one of these.
Then, you'll have to cope with the technical glitches at the Webkinz web site. My ordeal was in getting my son's Webkinz husky to send messages and gifts to another Webkinz husky owned by my son's best friend of the same age. The site has a "post office" where you can send letters and "gifts" to a friend on your "friend list", but they don't tell you on the site how to get a friend on the friend list, so I had to do research out on the Internet to see how this is done.
Once we had mastered that, we found that the mailbox doesn't update with new messages unless you log out of the Webkinz site and log back in again.
Some of the navigation controls on the Webkinz site are very narrow and hard for very young children to master because they require a lot of mouse precision. You may end up sitting with your child at the computer getting them through some of the things they want to do.
Finally, your pet's life is one year on the site unless you buy more Webkinz toys or buy a renewal of your pet at the end of one year. They want to hook you into spending more money. I'm glad these cute little things don't cost too much.
So, now you have an idea of what you are committing to when you buy one of these toys. Good luck!
enjoyable toy February 26, 2008
My son continues to expand his cache of webkinz with this little animal. He enjoys the website and I like the games he plays to earn wcash. The toy arrived sooner than promised and in excellent condition.
webkins rule! February 19, 2008
webkinz is awesome and i like it better than club penguin and i played that all the time for months. i like webkinz better because it has alot more stuff to do, plus you get to see many kinds of animals. you get to name your pet and my husky is named spike. i also got a black lab and named him mike. many of my friends are playing webkinz now and we interact online by giving each other presents and sending letters. i have never had a bad experience on webkinz and i have just turned 7. i like playing polar plunge the best. my parents kinda like it too--it sure keeps me busy and happy. i sleep with my webkinz and want a real husky when i grow up.
Great Quality plushies January 30, 2008

Our Pug had eaten the poor huskies eyes right off the Webkinz! We were all sad-but I ran the husky through the washer and dryer and he came out fluffier and we can hardly notice they're gone-I cant even see holes in it-these Webkinz are great quality-we have alot of them-I have to wash our plushies because of asthma and allergies in the house and they always come out looking better than when they go in the laundry!
