<p>Have you tried the new Building Kits in Webkinz World? They’re so much fun to make, why not try creating some Building Kit-inspired pieces in real life?</p>
<p>Here’s how you can make your very own log cabin.</p>
<p>What you need:</p>
<p>-          An empty milk carton, rinsed</p>
<p>-          A package of drinking straws</p>
<p>-          Card</p>
<p>-          Glue</p>
<p>-          Scissors</p>
<p>-          Brown paint</p>
<p>-          Paint brush</p>
<p>-          An adult assistant</p>
<p>What you do:</p>
<p>Have your assistant help you cut a small door in front end of the milk carton (the side that makes a triangle at the top) and two windows on either side.</p>
<p>Trace the triangular top end of the milk carton onto a piece of card and cut out two pieces.</p>
<p>Cut about 40 drinking straws to the width of the milk carton. Cover the sides of the milk carton with glue and stick the straws to the sides, leaving a gap where the windows are cut out. Cut enough straw pieces of about 1” to cover the walls on either side of the windows.</p>
<p>On the front of the milk carton, measure the space on either side of the small door, and cut enough straws to make the logs on either side of the door. Cut enough straws to the wide of the carton front to cover it up to the base of the triangle and glue the straws onto the carton. Repeat on the other side.</p>
<p>Take the small piece of cards that you traced from the triangular top of the carton and glue straws onto them. Trim the straws to the same size as the triangles. Glue the straw-covered triangles over the triangle at the front and back of the carton.</p>
<p>Allow glue to dry and cover the entire cabin with brown paint. If you like, you can decorate the cabin by hot gluing small stones around the window and door, and even make a small chimney out of stones.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you check your inbox you will have noticed that a special letter was sent on Wednesday from the KinzPost headquarters informing that something BIG is coming to Webkinz World… have you guessed what it is? We asked Nuts and Bolts to offer some more information to help reveal Webkinz World’s biggest mystery…</p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-39433   aligncenter" style="line-height: 24px;" title="ImgForArticle_Nuts&amp;Bolts" src="https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/ImgForArticle_NutsBolts-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></p>
<p><strong>NUTS:</strong> “The best part of building something yourself is being able to decide how it looks and make it right just for you. Imagine Kinzville was a place that you could design yourself, add roads and even plant flowers to make the prettiest place to play!”</p>
<p><strong>BOLTS:</strong> “I think you’re giving too much away Nuts…”</p>
<p><strong>NUTS:</strong> “Imagine a new way to explore Webkinz World like never before… a place where your pets can parade down the streets…”</p>
<p><strong>BOLTS:</strong> “ummmm… NUTS… I don’t think you should be…”</p>
<p><strong>NUTS:</strong> “And if you log in between October 17<sup>th</sup> and 24<sup>th</sup> you’ll get a special gift that you can place in your town to show off that you were here for this special reveal…”</p>
<p><strong>BOLTS:</strong> “NUTS! THAT’S MORE THAN ENOUGH!!!!”</p>
<p>If you still can’t figure it out you’ll just have to wait and see. The BIG reveal is only a few days away…</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey <a href="http://www.webkinz.com/bumper.php?adv=ext&amp;clickTag=https://apps.facebook.com/webkinzfriends/?cnl=WKNED&amp;st2=feature&amp;st3=36531">Webkinz Friends</a> players! We’ve got some great news to share: we wanted to make Kinzville even more customizable, so now you’ll be able to edit and sell the roads you initially get on the map. You can make your town look just the way you want!  We’ve also changed the way you get expansion lots.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-36578" href="https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/webkinz-friends-update-customize-and-expand-your-town/expansion-2/"><img class="size-large wp-image-36578 aligncenter" title="expansion" src="https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/expansion1-370x205.jpg" alt="" width="370" height="205" /></a></p>
<p>Now, instead of visiting the KinzMart’s “Expansions” section, you’ll be able to simply click on the lot that you want to purchase and buy it directly from your Map of Kinzville. Time to grow that town into a city!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Changes to your Webkinz Friends Town Quality Meter! <a href="https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/webkinz-friends/important-town-quality-info/">Read more <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Big news from <a href="http://www.webkinz.com/bumper.php?adv=ext&amp;clickTag=https://apps.facebook.com/webkinzfriends/?cnl=WKNED&amp;st2=feature&amp;st3=36536">Webkinz Friends</a>: your town’s Happiness/Town Quality bar has been redesigned!  Now Happiness isn’t limited by your Town Quality. You can raise your Happiness to 100 at any point in the game! Remember that your minimum happiness is still based on the number of pets in your family, with a maximum of 50 points.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-36568" href="https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/important-town-quality-info/meter1/"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-36568" title="meter1" src="https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/meter1.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Another thing to note is that your Town Quality is now leveled. There’s no more limit of 10,000. You can increase your Town Quality level as high as you want! For the first ten levels, you’ll get a great new prize for leveling up your town (that’s 9 prizes in total!). You’ll also increase the potential town bonus that you can receive.   If your Town Quality is already higher than level 1, you can find the prizes you earned for leveling up in your inventory.  Keep raising your Town Quality level as high as you can; it’ll be needed in future expansions and missions!</p>
