Greetings Fellow Webkinz Lovers!

Today I have some breaking news to share with you: Ganz has released pictures of their Valentine's Day Webkinz Collection for 2011!  The new offerings include the Webkinz Love Spaniel, a Love Puppy Kinz Klip, and a new Mazin' Hamster named Cinnamon.  Ganz will begin shipping these products in early to mid December, so these products ought to hit stores right before Christmas.

Check out the pictures and leave a comment telling us what you think!  Do you like the new Valentine's Day Webkinz, or were you hoping for something different?  Is the Webkinz Love Spaniel as cute as last year's Webkinz Love Lion?  Are you eager to build a maze for Cinnamon the MAZIN' Hamster? Love 'em or hate 'em, let us know!

The Small Webkinz Jr. are now available for purchase on our website!  The price is $14.99.  To see our selection of Webkinz Jr., please visit our Webkinz Jr. Page, or scroll down for pictures.

Webkinz Jr. are similiar to regular Webkinz pets in that they are plush toy animals that come with a secret code which grants you access to online games.  However, unlike regular Webkinz pets, Webkinz Jr. are designed for children ages 3-6 and the Webkinz Jr. website (webkinzjr.com) is separate from the regular Webkinz site (webkinz.com).  At webkinzjr.com, children can play with and care for a virtual version of their plush toy.  The games on webkinzjr.com are designed to encourage pre-reading and math skills, stimulate creativity, and develop computer skills.  Parents have complete control over their child's online account so they can rest assured that their children are safe.  For more information, please visit the site's FAQ page.

Our selection of Webkinz Jr. includes: Pink Elephant, Giraffe, White Bunny, Kitten, Puppy, and Mouse.  Clicking on the pictures will take you to the page on which you can purchase that product.  Links will open in a new window.
