Jumbleberry Fields Tips
Felicity Tiger here with some handy tips to help you get the most out of Jumbleberry Fields! 1. If you manage to get any purple Moonberries, keep them. Those are worth the most and they’re the hardest to get. Whether you assign them to the Moonberry basket or one of the number baskets is up to you – but definitely keep them if you roll them! 2. If you happen to roll one of each color, put it into the Mixed Basket right away – it’s hard to get one of each color! 3. Jumbleberries and Sugarberries are the easiest to get, so look for these ones when you’re trying to fill your four and five baskets. Obviously, if you manage to get four Pickleberries or Moonberries, wonderful! Save up the berries you earn and you’ll have your jam jars filled in no time! Happy berry picking!

Stoogles’ Check-Up
Stoogles here, feeling kind of sorry for myself. I don’t know if you heard the bad news, but I fell off my trampoline and broke my flipper! Can you believe that? I mean, if I broke my flipper during the school year, well, that wouldn’t be the end of the world, right? But on summer vacation? What a drag! Anyway, I just got back from a check-up with Dr. Quack and he said that my break is healing nicely, but that I have to continue to take it easy. Do you know what ‘taking it easy’ means? It means more hanging out with my grandpa while the rest of my family has lots of awesome summer fun. So long, amusement park. Hello, cold noodles and naps. At least my friends have been visiting me. Molly and Nibbles came over the other day with cupcakes for me and Sparky lent me his new video game. I guess that kind of makes up for the fact that I am stuck here with nothing to do. Hmmm… maybe I should call Roberta and play up the pain a bit. After all she hasn’t brought me anything yet and she is an awesome baker. … Read more
Nibbles Misses Plumpy
Hey everyone, Nibbles here. What a tough summer I’ve had so far! It just hasn’t been fun at all. I think the biggest problem is the fact that my sister, Plumpy, is on her honeymoon. She’s traveling all over Webkinz World with Charles, her husband. I wish I was with them! I bet they’re having the best time, sightseeing and eating in good restaurants. In fact, I know they are. Plumpy phones me or emails me every single day. I asked her if I could buy a plane ticket and come and meet her somewhere, but she said no. I don’t know why! I’m a fun sister! Anyway, I’ve spent my days watching TV and emailing my friends. I stopped by Roberta’s the other day, but she wasn’t home. Molly is so busy babysitting Millie and Holly, Stoogles has a zillion Googles events to go to and Sparky is ALWAYS at the Curio Shop or taking swimming lessons. I think everyone has forgotten about me. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I wish school was going to start again tomorrow. Love, Nibbles
PJ’s Summer Fashion Show
PJ Collie here with a fabulous summertime fashion show. Check out these AWESOME styles and tell us who you think is wearing the BEST outfit! First up, Hailey is wearing a fabulous black dress with pops of neon. Her sunglasses and shoes are bright pink, which works with this vibrant outfit perfectly! Next, we have Joe. Joe looks super cool in neon green shorts (neon is SO in this season, by the way). His black shirt and shades help to keep the outfit from being TOO bright, and his sandals are a great final touch. Looking good, Joe! A little summer rain won’t dampen the spirits of Elora! She’s looking seasonally sensational in this long floral dress! The ruffled sandals are perfect for a garden party, and the hat is a fun accessory! And for a casual summertime look, we’ve got Hank. Hank is decked out in a camouflage hat and shirt. His shorts are a dusty brown, and his runners say “I’m ready for a day in the sun!” If summertime has you thinking pink, you’ll LOVE Steph’s look! This lovely magenta and orange one piece is super stylish – and … Read more
Roberta’s Craft: Flower Prints
You guys will NEVER believe the fun I had at craft camp today! I had the best time making a painting out of flowers. Sounds interesting, right? Here’s how to do it yourself! What you need: Flowers with different colored petals – we used purple, yellow, red and pink; flat rock, two pieces of white paper What you do: Put down one piece of the white paper. You’re going to want to do this craft outside (on concrete is the best place). Sprinkle your petals all over the paper. Put the other piece of paper on top. Start banging your rock around on your paper. This should release the colors in the flower petals. Lift up the paper to see how the colors look. When you’re happy with the result, discard the petals and proudly display your floral print! One special note: be careful when you’re banging your rock – don’t let your fingers get in the way!
Postcard from Elwin
Dear Hailey, Wow! I am pumped! We finished the album and I just got to listen to it all the way through for the first time! Oh, Hailey! I can’t wait for you to hear it! This really is the coolest thing that has ever happened to me! I think you’re going to be impressed. Well, I know you’re already impressed. Listen – I don’t want to go all goopy on you or anything, but I thought this would be a good time to let you know how much I appreciate all the support and encouragement you’ve offered me my whole life. I am so lucky to have a sister like you, and being away from you has really shown me just how much I always lean on you. Okay – goopy moment over! Sorry! I hope I can get back to Kinzville soon so I can play you the album. I just know you’re going to love it! Gotta run! We’re doing some promotional photos for the tour and my ‘handlers’ are waiting for me! (Ha ha – can you picture me with handlers?) El
The Almost Big Sister
Oh, wow! Let me tell you – it’s not easy being an almost-big sister! This can be very stressful! The baby is due, like, any second and last night my mom started having these pains and I thought this was it! I was running around, boiling water and trying to find clean sheets, (isn’t that what they always do on TV?) when my dad told me to calm down. Calm down? Hello, mister?! There’s a baby on the way!!! He told me to be quiet and stop yelling (I was yelling?) because my mother was on the phone with the doctor. Her pains had stopped by then and the doctor said that it was false labor. Ugh! Now I know what Molly is talking about when she says Millie gets on her nerves – I mean, how could my new little sister or brother do this to me? Then my dad told me that when the time comes I don’t need to boil water or get clean sheets because the hospital will have all of that. And then he made me tidy up the linen closet. Geez – I was only trying to help! Oh, I don’t know how much … Read more
Hailey Interviews Designers
Hailey Interviews Designers Well, I’ve received a pile of resumes from potential design partners so, as part of the interview process, I decided to put forth a design challenge and ask each candidate to design a kitchen. Based on their work experience, the candidates that I asked to provide designs are PJ Collie, Wiggles Pig, and Tabby Von Meow. PJ has a lot of retail experience from working at the KinzStyle Outlet. Tabby seems to be a Jack-of-all-trades after running the Employment Office for so long, and Wiggles Pig is a great designer in his own right. We just need to see if we could forge a partnership. The weirdest thing is that when I received all their design proposals, there was another set of drawings that were submitted. I just found them on my desk and I have no idea where they came from. And the thing about the drawings is that they’re really – well, I’ll let you judge for yourself. So here are the designs submitted by Tabby, PJ, Wiggles and… ? Tabby Tabby decided to go with a country theme for her kitchen. She used the Wind Farm Wallpaper to really capture the country feel. She … Read more
Cowabelle’s Summer
Dear Roberta, Remember how I said my vacation with Dacey was going great? Well, let me just change ‘great’ to ‘horrible.’ What happened? Her BOYFRIEND showed up. Yes, that’s right. She has a boyfriend. His name is Trevor and he’s ALWAYS around. He and Dacey hold hands and share drinks and they’re constantly together. And what about me? I’m spending a lot of time with Dacey’s mom (who doesn’t really approve of Trevor, by the way). Also, I’m reading a ton of books (there’s a library close by). I asked Dacey if she wanted to go shopping and maybe get manicures and guess what she said? “Only if Trevor can come along.” You have GOT to be kidding me! I told her to forget about it and returned to the library to see if they had any new magazines in. I don’t know how much longer I can take this, Roberta. I might just end up coming home early, movie or no movie. I’m bored and tired of being left on my own. Some summer this is turning out to be. Love, Cowabelle PS – How are things with you?
