Webkinz Green Gecko
Wednesday, May 28, 2008

The Webkinz Green Gecko is kind of cool looking. And when it comes to Webkinz, cool looking is an important thing for my 5 year old son. He's in Kindergarten and getting his first taste of peer pressure, so the cute and cuddly Webkinz won't cut it anymore.

I think one of his classmates must have said that Webkinz are for babies or even worse, they might have said that Webkinz are for girls. Because for a month or so, my son wouldn't play with his Webkinz at all. But my wife says that all his friends have Webkinz and when they all get together for storytime at the library, all of the boys sneak off to the computers and log into Webkinz World. There's nothing babyish about goofing off at the library with you buds, so I'm guessing that the Webkinz bashing is over with.

And the Green Gecko is pretty boy friendly. He's green and a lizard, so he'll probably pass the coolness test until at least first grade.

Here's what the Webkinz Catalog has to say about the Green Gecko:

Geckos are cute, funny, and love nothing more than spending a day in their yard, playing in the bright Webkinz World sunshine. If you want to make this lively lizard even more cheerful, be sure to pick up a big cup of Sticky Spider Cider at the W Shop!

Webkinz Black Cat
Tuesday, August 28, 2007

With Halloween still about two months away you may think that there's plenty of time to get ready. Well not really. You could start thinking about your costume at this point but I wouldn't go and stock up on candy just yet.

There is one thing that needs to done before it's too late. You need to get your hands on a Webkinz Black Cat before they're gone.

The Webkinz Black Cat is a seasonal Webkinz Plush Toy that became available in August of 2007. It's green eyes give it a spooky Halloween look and it's special item is a Witch’s Brew Bathtub. The Webkinz Black Cat's special food is Fried Batcakes. Yum!

Remember this is a seasonal item so it won't be long before they're gone.
