Feedback Friday: What special places would you add to Webkinz World?
Welcome to 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! There are a lot of great things to do in Webkinz World™ every day. You can go to the arcade, the tournament arena, the Wshop, the Curio Shop, Quizzy’s Corner, and much much more. There’s even a travel agency in Webkinz World, so that your pet’s can go on vacation. Even though there are so many great things to do and places to go in Webkinz World, we understand if you, our faithful users, might have some ideas for new locations and activities. This week’s question is… What special places would you add to Webkinz World? Maybe you would like to see a high school or university, that pets can attend after Kinzville Academy? Or maybe it’s a Kinzville Bank, where your pets can learn about investing? Whatever ideas are, we’d like to hear from you! Give us some feedback by commenting now! http://www.webkinznewz.comx/wp-mu/2010/07/feedback-frida…oad-trip-event/

Caring Valleyâ„¢ Weekend at Ganz eStore: Touching Tiny Lives Foundation
This weekend is The Caring Valley™ Weekend. To celebrate, we will be having a floating item contest on Webkinz Newz. Visit Webkinz Newz from October 9, 2010 at 12:00am until October 10, 2010 at 11:59pm to enter! You could win a Haunted Hickory tree or a recipe food! Read the full contest rules here. This Caring Valley Weekend we will be focusing on the ‘Caring Round The World’ area of the Caring Valley, which currently features the "Touching Tiny Lives Foundation". Many babies and children in Lesotho, Africa, suffer from health problems caused by HIV/AIDS. Touching Tiny Lives Foundation uses money they raise in the US and Canada to care for these kids and buy them food and medicine. A team of volunteers and local staff helps hungry, sick or orphaned children become healthy and strong. You may find Caring Valley Tree Kits at Ganz eStore. Once you have unlocked the feature code, you can plant your trees in the ‘Caring Round The World’ area to show that you care about Touching Tiny Lives Foundation. Webkinz Foundation will consider your planting choices in making donations to child-focused charities. To learn more about Touching Tiny Lives Foundation click here.
