And now for a special report…
Webkinz Newz Week has begun and it’s your time to shine! Ella needs your help to write a front page story for the Kinzville Times, and if you manage to complete your special assignment by midnight, Sunday, April 19, you’ll earn a framed copy that you can display in your pet’s room!
To start your assignment, look for the Newz Week challenge icon. It will be displayed on the left side of your screen:
When you click on the icon, you’ll be able to review the tasks you’ll need to complete in order to finish your assignment on time:
Don’t leave the Webkinz Newz challenge to the last minute… Some tasks take time to complete. But, if you do manage to complete your assignment by midnight, Sunday, April 19 (EST), you’ll earn a special framed copy of your cover story that you can proudly hang in your pet’s room and a Newz Blogger Mug!
You will need to feed your pet 4 cans of Fizzy Newz Soda to complete the Webkinz Newz challenge, but you’ll only be able to find them at webkinznewz.com. You can easily access Webkinz Newz from the THINGS TO DO menu. Look for the daily floating Webkinz Newz Soda can and click on it to send it back to your account. Drag a can of Fizzy Newz Soda onto your Webkinz to feed your pet.
You can also visit the Newz Room at the Clubhouse for even more prizes throughout Newz Week. You can use the THINGS TO DO menu to get there:
Once you’re inside the Newz Room, you can click on the Podkinz recording booth to watch a short video about this year’s Webkinz Day. As soon as the video ends, you’ll be awarded a special coin in honor of the 15th anniversary of Webkinz (limited to 1 coin a day).
You’ll also be able to click on Ella McWoof to get a special prize. She’ll likely be blogging away at her desk, but don’t worry, she’s always excited to meet her fans!
There are 8 prizes to collect, including the rare Webkinz Newz Team signed posters. You’ll only be able to get 1 prize daily, so make sure you check up on Ella every day during Newz Week.
How close are you to finishing your assignment? Let us know in the comment section below…
Yay! Another chance to get all the signed posters for my Newz room!
Never mind. It took extra time for it to get in my inventory.
I did not get a chance to get the 15 year coin. It said I already watched and earned the coin, even though I did. Can someone help?
didn’t*
I lost a can of the Fizzy Soda. I got 2 yesterday. One when I signed back onto WW, and one from the Webkinz Newz floater. Tried to feed them to my pet for the Challenge this a.m. I fed him one can but the system glitched right at that moment. When I re-signed back on again, that one can did not register with the Challenge and apparently did not go back into my Dock (was left that that one remaining can. Can anything be done so I either get that one lost can back, or have the Challenge show 2 cans?
I’m not sure how that works. I am guessing that you have a time difference. You said yesterday, which would have been Sunday, April 12, so it must have been a glitch as the challenge didn’t start until today, Monday, April 13. If you are referring to the WKN day, their clock resets their day at around 8:00 PM EST. If you collected a Fizzy Newz Soda after 8:00 PM last night, then you will not be able to get another one for that same account until after 8:00 tonight. You shouldn’t have technically been able to get 2 during this challenge yet as the challenge just started today, 4/13. I hope that this helps to make things a little clearer.
I stumbled upon this code for a podkinz recording booth W24Y-D7F5-XCCA-HXTG and a podkinz host chair W24Q-PAF8-VGDC-6FZ8 These are perfect for this week. They are old codes that do not expire so those of us who weren’t around when they were offered them can still enter the code and receive. I hope Ganz lets me post this. Thank you Ganz for everything you’re doing during this pandemic
Wow, thanks so much! I just used these and they worked great :D
how do you use these?
click on things to do and look for for Code Shop (second row from the bottom) Click on it and enter the code
i might add in WebkinzWorld to clarify
Thanks!!
Ultrasonic3, thank you so much for the codes!! I’ve been wanting a podkinz booth for a while but didn’t know how to get my hands on one. You’re the best! -Anigodfr
glad I could help! There are few more that don’t have expiration dates and still some that have not expired
If you may, can you share them with us?
Sorry they won’t let me
Is anyone else having trouble getting the Podcast thing to work to get a coin. I have logged in and out of that room so many times I was able to collect all my Kiwi medallions and still hadn’t been able to click the booth in the correct spot. Maybe if it weren’t behind the bulletin board you could get to it more easily. Frustrated to say the least !!
How frustrating wasiki99. I clicked the “ClICK TO PLAY” button that is near the bottom of the Podkinz booth and it worked for me. Sometimes it hesitates and then just try again clicking on the button. If a pet is standing right in front then you may have to wait or switch room and return. Good luck and don’t give up. Hopefully it will work for you, as the coin is pretty cool.
I understand how frustrated you are. I have never been able to get the Podkinz booth to work for me. Then, I read jingles4 comment and clicked at the bottom of the booth. It said “Please Wait” and then it did nothing. I never watched a video. I just looked in my dock to see if I got the coin. I did get one! Look in your dock under the Star (Special Items) and see if you got the Webkinz Year 15 coin.
what do you do with the coin
Just click on the recording booth and watch a very short video (or you could skip if you’re impatient like me) and get your coin!
I save the special coins in my treasure chests that I’ve won throughout the years. It seems a good place to store fancy coins. :)
I’m wondering if there will be something special that is announced on Webkinz Day, maybe, hopefully?!?
awesome event and prizes
sadly, only one child can finish it since it takes 4 fizzy cans and only one per day to be found. I’d need 12 cans.
You can collect 1 can per Webkinz World account per day. If you already have a Webkinz World account associated to your GanzWorld account, simply log out of your GanzWorld account and hunt for the can to redeem it to different Webkinz World accounts.
But do the coins give prizes or money? I don’t see the point of saving them if they are for Kinzcash. Sorry, I just am confused and have been playing this long enough to know.
Coins can be sold for KinzCash, sure. They’re meant to be collectible items. You don’t have to save them if you don’t want to.
Happy Easter everyone!! I was wondering since Ganz will be 15 soon and with everyone stuck in our homes if Ganz would consider giving another chance to those who have been permanently banned but still have accounts. I met someone in park (who was using their friends account) because when they were young they messed up and she has over 20 pets and knows she was wrong…. I just thought it would be a nice thing to give people a second chance especially in these times! Thank you for reading!! Stay well everyone!!! Sending Hugs :) Keeping fingers crossed!
