The Webkinz phenomenon has been around for a while now, with collectors and kids alike fascinated by the fuzzy creatures and their associated Webkins web site. One you have "adopted" a toy animal you can go online and care for it in a virtual world on the site for one year. Parents need to be aware that the site does promote shopping and spending -- there are plenty of ways to earn and spend KinzCash (to buy clothes and furniture for the pet's room), and kids can purchase other Webkinz toys on the site's store. Also, sprinkled in with the fake "ads" (links to other areas of the site and "ads" telling kids to go out and play or to eat fruit) are a few real ads (for kids' movies, for example). Kids can participate in "controlled chat" (the exchanges are pre-scripted and personal information can't be shared). There are lessons to be learned about the responsibility of pet ownership: If a pet isn't fed regularly, he or she gets "sick" and makes a sad, droopy face. Happiness and health levels are shown on a meter that's affected by how often the pets are visited on the site, but if a kid loses interest in the site, the pet will be "sad" but won't actually die. With constant new features and daily and hourly events, kids might feel they miss out if they aren't online constantly, so you might want to limit computer time.
Families can talk about the pros and cons of computer play. How can you balance computer play with playing in the "real" world? Families can also talk about the responsibilities of caring for a pet.
