Welcome to the weekly edition of Feedback Friday, where we ask a question and look to our wonderful Webkinz members for answers that we will use to make Webkinz World better. This is your chance to influence the way that Webkinz World evolves!
This week, to look back at the holiday past, we want to hear from you about how we did this holiday season. This year’s holiday celebration had plenty to do. Ms. Birdy handed out a gift every day for twelve days in the Christmas Countdown, Santakinz asked everyone to pick what they wanted as a present, we had three Webkinz Newz contests and a Sweet Tooth Tiger giveaway, there were some great eStore sales, and so much more.
This week’s question is…
What did you think of our holiday events?
What did you like about our holiday events this year? What didn’t you like? What would you like to see next year? Give us some feedback by commenting now!
This is my first year on webkinz. I liked it a lot. I wish that there was more christmas trees in the W shop. I am not allowed in the Estore. Mrs.birdy was hard to find but over all, i liked it a lot.
I really enjoyed your holiday events! I loved the fact that we could PICK the gift we wanted, it was just like asking “Santakinz”! The Miss Birdy countdown was a lot of fun too! I really liked all those prizes, the Rubber Ducky is adorable!
I thought it was the sweetest thing EVER of you to give out a few Sweet Tooth tigers! It gave people like me a chance to have one! I really loovvvveeeee that tiger! I made a clay one, because I rather doubted I’d win. (I’ve never been very luck inn contests….) I didn’t win :( but at least I have my clay one. :) I also made his item.
So, THANK YOU GANZ! For all the cool holiday events!
Even though we have over 300 Webkinz, on two accounts, my grandaughter and I had a ball in our first year on Webkinz. Every holiday so far has surprized me. I’m not able to get out, but my grandaughter will call me to meet her in the clubhouse. It’s a way to connect with her and have a lot of fun. I do agree with the comments on the e-store. We do have deluxe membership and I do buy all the pets and different things. Sometimes, I would rather use a debit card, instead of having to charge. I also think if you need to have $3.00 more to buy something, you may not have the $10.00 to put in. I also thought there should have been more trees in the W-Shop and we weren’t able to purchase any X-Mas cloths. But in reality, this is the most amazing and innovative website I have ever seen. I do not worry at all that my young grandaughter will find anything inappropiate. Keep up the good work and kudos to your amazing workers for there brillant ideas.
well I loved the cristmas room in the clubhouse, since i have kinz chat plus i thought it was more fun there. I think you guys should always have a room where you can visit santakinz! :) And mrs. birdy was way more better then the ghost because, you could find her everywhere you looked (well i could). :) thanks for all your christmas work GANZ and happy 2010!
I really enjoyed the countdown to Christmas and getting to visit Santakinz. I do however wish there had been more Christmas trees available in the wshop. I didn’t like the purple tree and I am hoping to see regular chirstmas trees next year.
ms. birdy was a great idea but I almost never found her so maybe she can stay in one color zone for the whole day.
picking your own christmas item was a great idea too!And I would love it if next year you put clothes i the kinz style outlet like you did on halloween
keep up the great work ganz!
My large family is very into webkinz and the overall replies for this question were positive. We liked all the things that were going on,Santakinz,and miss birdy and most liked was the gift option.
The dislikes were the the tiger givaway and the small number given away.(that would have made an awesome christmas gift), and that the santa suit was advertised to be in the w-shop and never did and didn’t last year.
What we would like to see next year is less e-store and more ww stuff and more clothes.
I loved Ms. Birdy; although, I agree with the earlier posts that it was hard to find her at times. Maybe next year, she could be in one color zone for the entire day?
I also loved choosing my own Christmas item.
I did miss seeing the Christmas trees in the W shop that were there previous years. And I would like to buy Christmas outfits like we could do during the Halloween season.
Keep up the great work, Ganz! Your efforts to create a safe hobby for my kids and me to do together are greatly appreciated.
Dear Webkinz staff:
This is my third year on Webkinz World, and this was the best Christmas Holiday so far yet. My entire family young and old have accounts, and this is a wonderful way to bring the generations together. We very much enjoyed finding Ms. Birdy together every day and this gave us something to look forward to. It was also exciting to get to go and sit on Santakinz lap, and to ask for what you most wanted. This was so much fun that we hope that you continue this as a yearly tradition. We had three recommnedations: 1. It would be nicer to be able to see your pet while they are sitting on Santakiz lap. 2. We really missed the snowflake event. 3. We do not have credit cards, and you do not take debit cards. This causes for us to not be able to participate at all in the e-store, and this is probably true for many webkinz account holders. This causes many people to feel left out and sad that they can not obtain some very nice items that are only available at the e-store. We can also not obtain a deluxe membership for this same reason, as must be true also for many. We would like to suggest for this reason, that you could possibly offer a pre-paid card (points) available at retailers, where you could then pay cash and be able to still participate in the e-store like everyone else in this way. Thank you for all of your hard work in making Webkinz world so much fun and for making lovely stuffed pets.Wuthering.
They were awesome! Finding Ms. Birdy was tough, but fun, and Chossing what we’d get from Santakinz was a wonderful idea. Christmas Day was fun too. Spinning the Super Wheel is always fun, and getting a chance at an Employees only Webkinz was awesome. All together this Christmas Holiday was awesome in Webkinz World!
