What is a webkinz?

Do your kids have any video games you could steal?

webkinz is a website that comes with the purchase of stuffed animal there you can play with your toy in a virtual world. You get a home you can furnish, jobs to do etc. When you play games ( alot of them are educational based) you earn money so thatyou can buy food, clothes, furniture etc for your little friend. Great concept but the games are addicting to me and I just can’t stop.

Perhaps you could transfer this addiction to something else…

Ever played The Sims?
Or World of Warcraft?

Oh, wait…do you want help quitting this addiction, or furthering it?

Ruff ruff, meow, croak, quack quack, etc… i am also an adict. perhaps we should start a wa (webkinz anonomous) club. i have over 40 of these little creatures, piles of cards and even clothes (real ones to put on them) my lord i have lost my mind! but oh how i love it by the way, i am in my 60s and received one from my grand daughter for christmas. she is miles away so we have fun playing together. to be honest, i play with her mom (my daughter) too!!! i have also “hooked” 2 of my adult neighbors! so, guess i am of no help. i just can help myself!
No house work getting done
The laundrys’s piled up
’cause i’m having lots of fun
On webkinz with my pup

Oh i have kitties, frogs and pigs
And loads of other “kids”
So hubby gets no attention
While i give my “kidz” affection

My husband thinks i am addicted as well. i agree but I figure as long as I get my responsibilities done during the day then what is the harm. He thinks I am am a true addict and need to seek help….he thinks it is no different than a cocaine addiction….I am beginning to think he is crazy.
