Webkinz have always been a hit around our house with our daughter who’s almost 9. She loves the stuffed animals and loves to play on their website even more. As any mother of more than one child you know how the younger kids watch the big kids play and they get upset because they want to play too but they’re just too young. However, that’s all changed with the Webkinz Jr. Now your younger kids can have their own cuddly plush toy AND play on a safe website designed just for their age group. Their adorable animal plush comes to life online where they’ll be able to feed their animal, “cook” for them, help them brush their teeth, and play with them.
The Webkinz Jr. site is easy to navigate and the games are age-appropriate. Directions for the games are explained by happy and engaging characters so no reading skills are required. Something I really love is that the games, which teach math, shapes, colors, and more, allow extra chances to guess correctly until the right answer is chosen giving positive reinforcement along the way. Through playing the games your children can earn what’s called Kinz coins. Kinz coins are a fun “reward” allowing your children to “buy” online items for their Webkinz pet. My son likes to buy his purple monkey lots and lots of food and loves putting his monkey to bed. Like his sister he’s now a HUGE Webkinz Jr. fan and so am I.
