It's a good website, it teaches about the responsibilites of owning a real pet. There is even a place where you can answer trivia questions and learn new facts. However, there is a chat system where users can type what they want, but it has to pass the swear filter. Users do all sorts of tricks the send hate speech, ask for information, etc.

I love webkinz, its cute and I love collecting the plush toys "although a little expensive" I love making a house, earning money, and getting all these neat things. The things that i do not like is how kids act in the chat rooms-which isn't intirely the websites fault. It is just people constantly date, kiss, and even "attempt" a sexual act. Webkinz doesn't allow this- that goodness. But what they lack is showing warnings that things go too far, they do that, but not often enough. The site is very respectful to its players too, which makes me feel welcome. They even have an advice place! I recomend it. But if you don't want your kids exposed to bad behavior in the chat room, there is always a kinzchat ( which has words picked out )

This site is PERFECT for young kids. However, if you trust your kid to type in their own message in chat,you never know what they can pull on you. most children know the basic curse words and somehow will say it online without notice. beware.

I love it! It is very safe and fun.

You know what, i am 9 and i still love webkinz.I think it has fun games that anyone can play, including adults! It continually adds new updates to make it better and better! They even added little creatures that you can buy to be friends for your webkinz.I do not care what anybody says, webkinz is fun, safe,and easy to use.Plus, you get that from a member!

a cute website thats fun to go on when you are bored. The one thing is the has you consistantly spending. When you purchase a webkinz, you get a year of membership. When that ends, you MUST buy another pet to be able to log in to your account. It's a bit of a gyp, actually. Although, you could always just buy a pack of trading cards or something maybe.

I went on Webkinz when I was a bit younger, and found it rather fun. Any teenager will PROBABLY (some like Webkinz) think it is lame, but littler kids love it. What I find interesting about it, though, is the fact that the "game" is centered around economics. You might find the notion laughable, but your goal (besides having fun, obviously) is to get KinzCash and make purchases with it. Playing games is comparable to working at a job. So, I'd say that it can teach little kids more about how money works. In conclusion, you obviously don't want your child (if you are a parent) doing nothing else, but this is a clean, educational website.

I have 58 of them myself. It does teach you responsibility, how to type, how to manage money, and they have a curricular Quiz section. Safety is not much of a problem because you can't give any phone #s, addresses, or any other personal info. They do have fake ads for stuff inside the site. However, they advertise their "Deluxe Membership" and "eStore" items, as well as for movies and other stuff that they aren't affiliated with. But... that can be turned off in the Options section.

Great safe fun and gives your kid or you a fun way to take responsibility for a great price and a safe parental trusted site to play on Webkinz for all! Has Advertisement mostly about webkinz on side not a problem what so ever! You'll love Webkinz!
