New Year’s Eve is here, and after a long year full of great new additions to Webkinz World and some fantastic contests, we’ve got one last contest going on right now to ring in the New Year.

We want to hear your Webkinz-related New Year’s resolution! The five (5) most original entries of 1000 characters or less will each win a Party Machine virtual item (the “Prize”), one of the rare items that can only be acquired randomly by adopting a Pet Of The Month.

The contest is open now and closes tonight at 11:59 p.m. EST, so don’t miss your chance to enter! For details on how to enter the contest and the official contest rules, and to submit your entry, visit the Contests page. Good luck, and Happy New Year!

While Christmas Day has come and gone, the sales in Webkinz World continue! There’s a whole bunch of different Christmas-themed items to buy this year that you’ll only be able to buy for a limited time. All of our special Christmas items can be found in the W Shop under “Room Themes” and then “Santakinz Workshop”.

What should you buy? Well, the charming Cheery Chimney Fireplace will keep your Christmas spirit burning through to the New Year. Or what about a Merry Magic Sleigh Bed, where your Webkinz can dream sweet dreams of opening presents on Christmas Day every night? If neither of those suit your fancy, look no further than the Santakinz Desk, where you can plan out next Christmas’ surprises in the comfort of your Webkinz room!

These are just a few of the great items on sale; there are more to discover in the W Shop. These items will only be available until January 5 and not January 6 as advertised on the items, so be sure you buy them while you can before Santakinz swoops them up in his sleigh and heads back home!

New Year’s is approaching, and we’ve started to think about what resolution we want to make. Should we vow to log in every day so that we never miss the chance to play Jumbleberry Fields? Will we vow only to feed our pets nutritious foods? There are so many possibilities.

What about you? We want to hear your Webkinz-related New Year’s resolution! The five (5) most original entries of 1000 characters or less will each win a Party Machine virtual item (the “Prize”), one of the rare items that can only be acquired randomly by adopting a Pet Of The Month.

The contest opens at 12:00 am EST on December 29, 2009 and ends at 11:59 p.m. EST on December 31, 2009. For details on how to enter the contest and the official contest rules, and to submit your entry when the contest opens, visit the Contests page. Good luck, and Merry Christmas!

Welcome to the weekly edition of Feedback Friday, where we ask a question and look to our wonderful Webkinz members for answers that we will use to make Webkinz World better. This is your chance to influence the way that Webkinz World evolves!

This week, to celebrate the holiday, we want to hear about your Christmas. After twelve days of receiving gifts from Ms. Birdy in our Christmas Countdown, everyone is abuzz with talk of presents. Now that Santa has visited us all in the real world, let’s share what we asked for this Christmas!

This week’s question is…

What’s did you ask Santa for this Christmas?

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! We here at Ganz wish you and your families all the best this holiday season. We hope you’ve enjoyed the events leading up to Christmas in Webkinz World, and we look forward to having even more fun in the days that follow!

The Christmas Countdown concludes! Each day for the past eleven days, we’ve unveiled a new line in our adaptation of the Christmas classic “The Twelve Days Of Christmas” which will reveal what present Ms. Birdy will be giving away in the Clubhouse for the following day is.

Today, we reveal the final delight which dances and dazzles all day:

Friday’s present is a dazzling Dancing Toy Robot! How delightful! Visit Ms. Birdy in the Clubhouse tomorrow to claim your prize. Tomorrow also marks the conclusion to our Christmas Countdown for the year.
