The Prize Klaw
The Prize Klaw is a brand new activity that you’ll be seeing in Webkinz World every now and then. Use the arrows to move the Klaw left and right and the down button to try and grab a capsule. If you get one, move the Klaw over the drop zone to claim your prize! You must drop the capsule into the tube in the drop zone — if you miss, you’ll have to try again. The Prize Klaw will be available to everyone between 6am and 11:59pm on December 2, 2009 — keep watching the Today’s Activities page for more chances to play! Update: Now that you’ve had a chance to play, what do you think about this new activity?
