The latest rage in the toy making industry seems to be including a website where children can interact on-line with the toy or game. It’s a great idea to have a safe website where children can learn and play. Ganz, the maker of THE SOFTEST plus toys (in my personal opinion), created a line called Webkinz and recently they have branched out to make an even younger line called Webkinz Jr for ages 3 to 6.
It was like they have been reading my blog and my daughter’s obsession with purple because they sent us a pink dog with purple ears. Of course, I’ve decided to donate him to charity. We have too much around here so we’re sending it off to the next lucky charity Mom Start supports.
When you go to create an account with the code your plush comes with, you can create two accounts. You will be creating an adult account and a kids account. What’s nice about this is that you can monitor everything that your child does on-line as well as send your kid a little note or adjust their activity difficulty. The activities range from naming pets, learning math, reading words, drawing pictures to learning simple science facts. Your child also gets to take care of their pet, which matches the plush, on-line (virtually).

What a fun site for kids! My nephew visits frequently. I think it’s great that the parents can keep up with their child’s activity. The plush pal is a bonus!

I think it’s a cute, safe site for the children to be on. My Bella adopted her little pony on the site. She loves it.

My son loves to watch his sister play and this would be great for him. He likes the tan puppy.
I like the parents area and I also like that I don’t have to worry about this site.

Oh what sweet fun!
The website is easy to use, looks fun for kids, and I like that there is a parent’s section.
Looks like a fun site. Really cute animals (I like the Orange Kitty)and young kid oriented. Best of all, parents can monitor child’s activity

I like that there is a Parent’s Area for parent’s to check in and for FAQ’s, etc.
I love the idea, but not the price!
I like the fun activities for the kiddos. The cute animals help to keep their attention and the parent section is great for keeping track of what they are doing.

Kids can have loads of fun here. Thanks for this offer.
I took the tour. First I loved the store locator. We live in the country and sometimes it’s hard to find retailers.
Also, I liked that there was a Parent’s Area.
The E store looks like fun to shop in.
