Haunted High is our 17th Season! Here are some more details, tips, tricks, and links to more information about the daily, week 1, and week 2 tasks.
Dailies
Your daily tasks are the following:
- Collect a candy from the Arcade
- Buy a lunch food from the W Shop
- Tickle your baby
- Exercise your pet
- Spin the Wheel of WOW in the Arcade
Collect a Candy from the Arcade
Click on the Kinzville map and then the Arcade (or click on the Arcade building when you’re in Kinzville). Look for the candy icon above the claw machine. Click on the claw machine to get a random candy.
Buy a lunch food from the W Shop
Click on the W Shop icon in the lower right and then head to the food category. Under Classic Foods, you’ll find a variety of foods. Pay attention to the descriptions — it will say at the bottom whether it’s a breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, or dessert food.
Tickle your Baby
This doesn’t have to be your baby — you can visit any friend with a baby and borrow theirs to complete this task. The tickle icon is the big red heart smooshing against the stuffy.
Exercise your Pet
You can exercise your pet with a pool, a trampoline, or a treadmill. Pools and trampolines can be found in the outdoor section of the W Shop, while the treadmill is in the Living Room section.

Spin the Wheel of WOW in the Arcade
Visit the Arcade by clicking on its icon from the Kinzville map or by clicking on the building when you are in Kinzville. You can spin the Wheel of WOW once a day. If you’re playing when the day ticks over (midnight, Eastern Time), you may want to log out and back in before spinning to make sure it counts properly. The Wheel of WOW in the park does not count towards this task.

Kinzville Academy 101
Collect 5 Gems from the Gem Mine
Click on the Gem Mine on the Map, or go through the Curio Shop. Look for glittering stones and break them with your pickaxe. Keep the gem you collect to count towards this task.

Earn 100 KinzCash playing Lily Padz
Visit the Arcade from the Kinzville map or by clicking on the building from Kinzville. Click on one of the Arcade machines to bring up the list of games and look for Lily Padz. With a bit of practice, you’ll find this game quite a bit easier. This goal is cumulative — you don’t have to earn 100 KinzCash in one go, so every little bit counts.
How to play Lily Padz
Sell 10 Crops to Farmer Will at the Farmer’s Market
Harvest crops from your gardens and the Farmer’s Plot and head to the Farmer’s Market on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. Farmer Will will be purchasing different crops each time, so be sure to plant a variety of crops. Plants take 4 days (96 hours) to be ready to harvest, so factor that into your time. You have 5 weeks to finish this task, so don’t stress!

Spend 20+ Wish Tokens at the Wish Boutique
Click on the Curio Shop icon on the Kinzville Map or click on the Curio Shop building from Kinzville. Head to the Wish Boutique at the back right to see what items are available. Some items cost as little as 5 Wish Tokens — you don’t have to spend all 20 in one go, so feel free to keep collecting or purchase less expensive items up front.
Buy something from the new fall clothing line
Click on the W Shop icon in the lower right. Look for the New and Promos category on the left and look for the new autumn-themed clothing.
Participate in the Great Cake Cookoff 3 times
The Great Cake Cookoff is regularly scheduled — you can find the schedule here — you don’t have to rank or win to complete this task, just join in and complete a full game three times.
Fill a Pet Care heart 5 times
Complete pet requets to fill the Pet Care heart. Some activities, like exercising and feeding a hungry pet, will also give you Pet Care points the first time you do it for that pet in the day. If you have more than one pet, you can switch to another once you’ve filled a heart. It doesn’t have to be the same pet each day.

Take your baby to slide on the Baby Slide 3 days
You’ll need your own baby for this task. If you don’t already have a stroller, you’ll need to get one from the Interactive section of the W Shop. Then, drag the stroller into the property that has your baby. Click on the stroller to select the baby you want to put in the stroller. Now, click on the Kinzville Map and go to the Baby Park. Once there, click on the Baby Slide to have your baby slide down it.
Strollers and the Baby Park
Play Kinzville Pinball on 3 different days
Head to the Arcade from the Kinzville Map or click on the Arcade building from Kinzville. Click on an Arcade unit and select Kinzville Pinball from the list. Have fun playing! You’ll need to play at least once on three different days to complete this task.

Gardening 101
Have your baby return from Daycare
This requires your own baby, and this baby must have room for growth moments. A baby who already has a full growth meter can’t be sent to Daycare and cannot complete this task. You will receive credit for this task when your baby returns from Daycare.
Daycare in Webkinz Next
Buy something from the Werewolf room theme
Look for the new Werewolf theme in the W Shop — you can find it under New and Promo, or under Room Themes.
Buy a Rare Item from the Curio Shop
Check the Curio Shop (from the map or clicking on the building from Kinzville) and look for the glowing door behind the register — that means there’s a rare item. If you follow us on Twitter, you can find notifications for rares during business hours, Monday to Friday.
Invite a friend over three different days
Click on the message center to bring up your friend list and find a friend that is online. Click on the invite button to invite them over. You get credit for this action whether your friend comes over or not. Do this on three different days to complete the task.
Get 9000+ on Goody Gumdrops 5 times
This game takes practice! Find Goody Gumdrops by clicking on a Arcade unit in the Arcade (which you can visit by clicking on the Arcade button in the lower right, clicking on the Arcade icon from the map, or clicking on the Arcade building from Kinzville). There are two numbers that are tracked in Goody Gumdrops — distance and score. This task is looking for 9000+ in score.
Cook 3 recipes on the stove
Click on any stove to see the list of recipes you have available. You do not need to own to stove to do this — you can even use the stove in the Showroom. Materials can be obtained by clicking on the Material Pick Pack vending machine outside of the Curio Shop. You also get a Material Pick Box once a week.
Crafting 101
Spend 50 Prize Tickets at the Arcade
Visit the Arcade by clicking on the Arcade button, clicking on the Arcade icon from the map, or clicking on the Arcade building from Kinzville. Click on the prize machine at the back right to see everything you can purchase with Arcade Prize Tickets! Earn Prize Tickets by playing games in the Arcade. This is a cumulative task, so you can purchase 5 Game Tokens or an item that costs at least 50 Prize Tickets.

Complete 3 Days of Classes that include the Art Class
Visit the Kinzville Academy by clicking on the icon on the map or by clicking on the building in Kinzville. Complete classtime each day — you’ll get a different set of classes each day. You have four weeks to finish this task, so keep checking for the Art class each day.
Earn 100 KinzCash playing Glideheart
Visit the Arcade by clicking on the icon in the dock, the icon on the map, or the building in Kinzville. Click on an arcade unit and select Glideheart from the list. This is a cumulative task, so you can play as many games as you need to reach this KinzCash amount.

Sally, this is so helpful! Thank you so much for putting this together. It’s much appreciated.
Thanks for the article it really has been helpful with things I didnt know for sure! I just wish they would do some serious updates. I miss being able to sell anything and everything back to the W shop!
Fantastic write up.
I still don’t enjoy being forced to get/use gems or other special items (KVA and wish boutique) and I really don’t like spending money on things I can’t get rid of and using game tokens needlessly is the worst. When you have to play six games to get to the tokens it means being online for way too long or wasting games.
Those tickets and wish tokens are hard to come by and I would like to save for things I want, not be forced to buy for the season. Too many of these tasks in a season means skipping and not getting the season completed.
9000+ on gumdrops five times, I laugh I can’t even get 700 points. There’s often unreasonable arcade game tasks.
I wish someone would make a survey for feedback because I’d still prefer to pick my KVA classes like in classic so I can avoid the art (that is never right no matter how close you appear to be), the music (I always x out on purpose) and the hard treadmill is nearly impossible to reach when the target is at the end most of the time. I still think the 4 letter wordle is harder than the 6 letter (less chances and less letters can be eliminated and too many possible correct words).
Also, I’m sitting on dozens of screenshots of incorrect answers in the quiz (some even have the correct answer twice but if you pick the wrong one you lose).
As for the Cookoff, it would be great if I stood over an ingredient it would be picked up. Just played a whole round and couldn’t pick up a single ingredient. With an empty cart it makes no sense.
So yeah, I’d love to fill out a survey so Ganz has a real picture of what needs improvement and what is loved as is.
I totally agree with you! I wish they would make it so we can use the arrow keys to control our pets too! I got dizzy trying to pick things up in that cook off game! And I absolutely hate that we cant sell certain things back to the W shop so we have so much extra stuff we dont want or need, like 8 suitcases!
okay then maybe dont do it? other people like it
Replies like this, are not helpful. Especially when so many points were brought up and you just encase it all into one reply.
We do understand we don’t have to do things. And I pointed out that I skip things, but they do end up getting costly near the end of the season and we can’t get the grand prize.
And as I said in my post I would love a survey we could all fill out so Ganz could get some much needed feedback.
We know someone reads our posts but we are never acknowledged and nothing gets done. We want to be heard and appreciated as without us all there’s nothing. We are the customer and many of us offer awesome suggestions that would benefit everyone.
I completely agree with this. I remember seeing a daily task asking for us to use a material box and I found it irritating because I like saving up my daily boxes so that I can save it for bigger projects. I would also like to say about how some of the arcade requests for Sparky are literally impossible to complete too. If you thought that 9000 on Goody Gumdrops was insane, I get requests over 50% of the time from Sparky, asking if I could beat his score on Goody Gumdrops of 25000+ points. I mean, is that really possible? I just wish that surveys were constantly given out. I appreciate the current acorn survey, but I just wish that there was a way for more of our feedback to be heard too.
Oh no, goody gumdrops again. Makes me dizzy.
Me too. And Glideheart too
Very useful! I am so bad at Lilly Padz so I am happy when I can use the whole season to obtain the score.
Week 2 is not working. Yesterday I scored more than 9000 points on Goody Gumdrops 5 times, but I did not get credit for it. Also, why can’t the haunted school desk be traded? In fact, why are there so many items that can’t be traded?
You may have made 9000 in distance rather than score. Score is the number that counts. Most items should be tradeable–if it’s not, it’s been missed. Will check on the Haunted School Desk.
I liked the article, but I’m still having trouble getting over ~8500 points on Goody Gumdrops. Are there any other tips to help me break the 9000 mark?
My usual tips are:
Thank you! I’ll keep trying!
Thank you for the helpful tips! 😊
Sorry the end is meant to be a smiley face. :) 😊
Sally Webkinz, this is the most helpful, thorough article that I have read in a long time. Thank you for all of the time, care and love that you put into crafting this extremely helpful guide, complete with links!
I agree with my friend, kalcan8. Thank you so much Sally. This is very helpful and thorough. I really appreciate it.
I didn’t know you could use other players’ babies for the tasks. Good tip!
Yeah i have done that.
