For those in Webkinz World that celebrate Hanukkah during the holiday season, we have Menorahs that you can pick up at the WShop and use in your pet’s room.
This year, Hanukkah runs from the evening of December 24th to January 1st. Each night, one of the candles on the Menorah will light until all the branches are lit on the final night.
This year we’ve released a new Glass Menorah, along with the re-release of the Modern Menorah and the Brass Menorah in the WShop.
Here’s a look at all the Menorahs we’ve released in Webkinz World over the years:
What traditions do YOU have over the holiday season? Let us know in the comments below!
Cool! My favorite would be the Colorful Manorah.
what about kwanzaa?
what a great idea!! even thou i do not celebrate Hanukkah, this is a great thing!! great thinking webkinz!!
I’m glad we at least get a Menorah, but like others here, I’d love to see more. Dreidels would be nice, or a wall paper. In the share center gallery for holiday rooms, I posted my ‘Kinz play Dreidel room, but I had to use floor tiles to make the letters on the Dreidel and to make any sort of Hanukkah themed background. I used crayons as Dreidels. It may not look as nice as the Christmas rooms, but I worked with what I had (not much.) I understand we are the minority (by a lot) but it would be nice to have a few more items, and for you to feature Hanukkah rooms that don’t have Christmas trees in them (nothing against those who are in mixed families, just call it a holiday room, or something fun like Hanuchristmakuh.) Have a happy holiday everyone! You could also give away Hanukkah themed foods like Jelly doughnuts, Latke’s and Fried chicken. Everyone loves fried food!
Great ideas! Could be quite educational, too! ;)
Racoon600, I just want to say that I love the rooms you have in the share center,especially the ‘kinz play dreidel one! You are so creative!
Raccoon6000 Brilliant suggestions!! I for one would love the see Hanukkah themed items.
I agree. I’m not Jewish, but I have spent time with a Jewish friend around the holidays, and I think it would be nice to be able to have the full experience in Webkinz World. Even though there are more players who celebrate Christmas as opposed to Hanukkah, having the Menorahs available pretty much begs for a Dreidel. It wouldn’t be unreasonable to suggest a set of items/gifts that can be obtained spanning the days of Hanukkah, either. Anyways, happy holidays!
Please with a cherry on top Ganz ,please make a Hanukkah themed room.Who agrees!!
I agree. :)
I agree, too! I’s also love to see latkes, gelt, and jelly donuts in the food section of the shop!
I agree, too! That would be epic!
I only have a few of these (I never knew there were so many!) My favorites are the Magnificent Menorah, and the Brass Menorah. I like the old-fashioned, real candle look best. Thanks for sharing this gallery! It can really help collectors, and everyone gets to enjoy your beautiful designs!
I thought I had them all, but it appears the silver shining menorah is hiding in me… XD These are really pretty (:
These are beautiful menorahs. Thanks, Webkinz, for including those who celebrate Hanukkah. It is so nice to see everyone included.
It is! I’m incredibly happy to see that the Webkinz team respects the Jewish community. =^^=
Well you know, the founders of Ganz were Jewish.
Really, gezundteit? That’s so cool! There are just too many great Jewish people out there to count!
Yeah, it’s cool that they respect them.
Agreed! I personally don’t celebrate Hanukkah, (I celebrate Christmas) but it is so great that Webkinz designed these beautiful pieces to keep Jews in mind. :) The new glass menorah is so pretty that I might just have to get it myself!
I celebrate Christmas too. I don’t do Hanukkah.
I’d like to see some dreidels in the future. :) All religions and holidays should be celebrated, the Webkinz community is beautiful and diverse.
I agree. I suggested last year that the game developers create a virtual dreidel game, maybe even multi-player. You would “spin” the dreidel, and then follow the directions on the side that it lands on. Whoever finally wins would receive a pile of gold foil-wrapped chocolate coins. I think that the whole WW community could enjoy playing the dreidel game, not just the ones who celebrate Hanukkah. May everyone enjoy a happy, healthy holiday season!
Hanukkah is more than just menorahs. It’d be nice to see some draydels, gelt and even wallpaper/flooring among the available decorations
Oh yes! that would be so cool! :D
yup! I celerbrate it by the way
