Check out the Message Center!
As you’ve probably noticed, we added a Message Center to your Dock in Webkinz World. Be sure to check it out, because you can do the following things there: 1. Use the Friend Finder to find a friend (and invite them to join your Friends List). You can do this by using the “Friend Finder” button on the bottom right hand side of the Message Center. You’ll see a list of possible friends and you can choose whether or not you want to add them. You can send 8 Friend Requests per day. 2. Receive requests from your friends for Challenge items. Challenge items are things a friend needs to complete a task in a Challenge. To ask a friend for an item, just use the ‘Ask Friend’ button next to a task when you’re doing a Challenge. (If you don’t want to wait for a friend to send you an item, you can just buy it from the eStore.) You can only send one request per friend each day. Remember: Challenge items don’t appear in your Dock, they only count towards the goal in your Challenge task. … Read more
Molly’s Great Idea
Hey! It’s me, Molly. Millie and I have had a long day and I am exhausted! What started out as a small project turned into a major undertaking. I found out that there was a Kinzville toy drive and asked my mom if she would take us to the W Shop and let us choose some gifts that we could give away to kids who are less fortunate than us. I have some KinzCash saved up from my allowance and I thought this would be a pretty good way to spend it. My mom loved the idea and then she said that if any of my friends wanted to donate too, she could drive over and pick up the toys and deliver them to the toy drive. Isn’t that a great idea? So I sent out an email to my friends telling them what I had in mind and the response I got was overwhelming! Almost all of my friends said that they would donate at least one toy to the toy drive. I made a list of everyone who wanted to donate and told them that we’d be there … Read more
School Council Minutes
In attendance: Stoogles, Salley, Purr-Cilla Minutes: Because a certain Googles and certain Alley Cat can’t seem to see eye-to-eye on anything, I, Purr-Cilla, am writing these minutes. You’re welcome. First, I just want to say how completely ridiculous Stoogles and Salley are being. Like, really! What is up with those two? Just chill out and apologize. That’s coming from ME, queen of not apologizing. It’s just so insane. They’re not even speaking, as I take these minutes. Just glaring at each other. We’ve got to plan the holiday assembly and carol sing, but can I get them to agree on anything? NO! Well, I’m going to force them to talk and I’m going to write down, word-for-word, what’s said at this meeting. P- OK, Ms. President and Mr. Vice-President. Open your mouths and start talking. I’m not sitting here all lunch hour wasting my time if you’re just going to glare at each other. SC- Fine. We need to start planning the holiday assembly. P- Yes. Yes we do. What kind of songs should we sing? S- Who cares? Let’s just use the list from last year. SC- Oh, that’s really great. Really … Read more

Roberta’s Homemade Holidays: Desk Set
Welcome to my crafty workshop! Today, I’m working on my mom’s gift. She loves being crafty – I guess that’s where I get it from! Mom’s desk is ALWAYS messy, so I thought I could make her a desk set to help organize some of her stuff. Here’s how I did it: What you need: scrapbooking paper (three different patterns or colors works well – make sure they look good together), scissors, ruler, pencil, shoe box top, paper towel tube, small square box, paper cup, long rectangular box, double-sided tape, craft glue, stickers (optional) What you do: Cover the shoe box top in scrapbook paper. You don’t really need to do the bottom, but make sure you cover each side and the inside of the box top. Measure the paper so it’s large enough to fit around the outside of each of your containers. Cut it to fit. If you’re covering something like a drinking cup, you might find it easier to cover with strips, as opposed to larger pieces of paper. Strips work better since the cup is curved. Glue your paper in place. Add stickers, if you like. Make … Read more

Hailey and Elwin Make Over Fluffington’s Yard
No! No! No! This is all wrong! I cannot believe what Hailey and Elwin did to my yard! I mean, I know that I already let them loose in my living room and games room. I tried to cope with the fact that all my golden furniture and purple accessories had been removed to be replaced with red and green (how common!) and that my games room had been turned into some sort of giant white checkerboard. But this yard is all wrong! Don’t Hailey and Elwin understand that I represent Kinzville’s gentry? I am from one of Kinzville’s oldest and most established families. I mean, if Great Aunt Meriwether sees a snowman, what is she going to think? That I’ve been rolling around in the snow in my expensive clothing? What about those ridiculous ice sculptures of the fairies and this poofy red gazebo. (Why can’t they get that I like GOLD?) I asked Hailey and Elwin what they meant by all this whimsy and they said that they were trying to create a fun area where the children of Kinzville can play when they come … Read more

Fluffington’s Living Room gets a Makeover
Elwin checking in! So Hailey and I were offered a major project for the holidays! Fluffington St. Bernard has asked us to oversee the decorating of his home for the big party he is throwing for his whole family on Christmas day. This is really huge for us. If we can impress Fluffington, he might introduce us to some of his rich, bigwig friends and then who knows how many fabulous design jobs we could get? The first two rooms that we did were the Games Room (you might have seen that) and his living room. He has a pretty swanky pad here, marble flooring, and rich wooden accents. And a glorious combination of rich colors like deep purples and dazzling gold. Fluffington is anything but understated when it comes to decorating so Hailey and I both know that whatever we do, it has got to be over the top. This is just the kind of challenge we love! The first thing we did when we went to work on Fluffington’s Christmas themed living room was to remove some of the statuary and sculptures. We wanted a pretty clean slate to add our … Read more
