WEBKINZ - Reindeer

My 7-year-old LOVES this webkinz. It arrived Super-Fast - before it's estimated arrival date. It's difficult for a child to order something on-line and then have to wait for it. But this arrived so quickly, it was a terrific learning experience for him (ie, how the world works, patience, delayed gratification, etc.)

My daughter is having lots of fun both with the reindeer itself as a toy and on the Webkinz web site.

When my daughters first received their other webkinz, the webkinz site was fast and fun. I guess the website is too busy or something, because they couldn't even get the rooms for their reindeer finished. The ganz company needs to update their system so everyone that paid for their webkinz will have fun playing. My daughters used to play on their webkinz all of the time. Now, whenever they try to play, the "Please Wait" sign comes up. Webkinz used to be a great way to spend some free time, but, now, it's a waste of money.

This is a great toy! i am a ten year old girl and i love this reindeer! I have over 65 webkinz. This is one of my fav. webkinz! it is very educational because it has a place online called Qizzy's Corner. You can use it for studying. For any subgect. It also has a different age group for kinder garden and up! THIS IS A GREAT TOY!!!!

That each stuffed animal comes with access to a fun website is a big plus and a large part of why you would pay what you pay for a small stuffed animal. However, the website is constantly down. The problems range from not being able to log on to being booted off after 1-2 minutes of play. A topic of conversation in our house is when one of the kids say, "Hey, I was able to be on Webkinz for over ten minutes today without being booted off." Ganz knows of the problem but rather than fixing the website pockets the profits. Do a websearch on webkinz or Ganz and you will see 100's of similar complaints. Oh, writing to Ganz gets you no response.
