Wow! And wow some more is all I can say! Ganz has really outdone themselves with this year’s Winterfest. There are prizes galore, challenges and even an awesome pet designing contest happening in January.
I even dressed up some of my pets in celebration on Winterfest:
(If you like my Blue Persian Kitten, be sure to check out my adoption video.)
So much is happening in January that I made a little list to keep track of it all:
If you’d like a copy of this list to print or to save for reference, the PDF is right here: 2017-winterfest-events.
I also made a calendar of all the events so you won’t miss a thing with all the excitement happening in Webkinz World throughout January.
If you’d like to download and print your own copy, you can find the PDF here: january-2017-webkinz-events-calendar.
Of course, all of this information is available on Webkinz Newz, but I thought it might be handy to have it all in one place. 🙂
Between now and January 10th, make sure you “max out” on snowflakes:
That means finding the floaty click snowflake on Webkinz Newz:
AND collecting 5 floating snowflakes in Webkinz World!
This year the floating snowflakes award items related to ice skating, which pairs well with the prizes you can win if you feed your pet Winterfest Cookies from the Ganz eStore.
Here’s the snowflake prize pool:
Which of these prizes are your favorite? I really like the Girl’s Figure Skates, and I’m hoping to get enough Skating Rink Floor Tiles to build an ice skating room. Do you have any plans for your snowflake prizes? (Hint: Stay tuned to crazy4webkinz.com for a room design drawing!)
Speaking of prizes, don’t forget to complete the Peek-a-Newz challenge each day on Webkinz Newz. This month you’re looking for the Zig Zag Zebra, which is January’s Pet of the Month. Here are the prizes you can win when you find the Zig Zag Zebra five times:
Which of these prizes are you hoping to win? I really like the green couch and the red window in the “uncommon” prizes.
A few days after the floating snowflakes disappear until next year year’s Winterfest, the Winter Shopping Spree starts. I’ll talk more about the Winter Shopping Spree later this month – get ready to collect retired clothing pieces AND floating SPREE dice!
Are you excited about this year’s Winterfest? Have you been collecting your snowflakes? Let me know in the comments for a winter prize via kinzpost!
Thank you so much for all the valuable information on Winterfest. Love the printable calendar! We are enjoying winter in Webkinz World! I think our favorites are the same prizes as yours. The snowflakes are coming pretty quickly this time. So we just stay on the map and wait for them to drop! Loving all the Winterfest fun!

Thank you for the time you put into your posts! The snowflakes seem to fall about once a minute, for me. Which I’m totally fine with! And congrats on winning the grand prize from the cookies! I actually won one too, which was pretty cool! The main reason I bough the 6-pack though was for trading purposes, but I found out, the prizes aren’t tradable! Oh well, at least it wasn’t a total waste! (Btw, please ignore the name on the email I’m using. It’s my friends, he lets me use it) I’m a girl, haha!

I didn’t know they weren’t tradeable – thanks for the tip! The snowflakes are definitely falling faster this time around, which is great since I don’t spend much time in the clubhouse unless I’m trading. Thank you for the compliment on my posts. 🙂 I love Webkinz, and I love sharing my experiences with fellow Webkinz fans!

You’re welcome! Yeah, I’m glad they’re coming quickly. Can I friend you on Webkinz? And what pet(s) do you usually use in the trade room? Maybe I’ve seen you before!

I’d love for you to friend me on Webkinz! I’m treehuggerjess and gabirdgirl. In the trade room, I mix it up quite a bit. Right now I’m usually a vampire kitten (Precious), a Blue Avenue Kitten (Marilyn) or a Blue Persian Kitten (Audrey). Which pet do you take into the clubhouse?

Thank you! Hmm, I don’t recall seeing any of them.. Do you use Kinzchat Plus or no? Oh man, talk about switching up pets, I switch pets, sometimes multible times a day! I’m usually Blissful Winter (Frosty Fawn), Winters Frost (Signature Snow Leopard) or Sketch (Rainbow Rascal racoon)! I’ll try to add you today! (My user starts with 11m)

I don’t think I’ve ever done the Kinzchat Plus room before. I got signed up for my parent’s permission (LOL!), but I haven’t used it. I’ll be on the lookout for your friend request! 🙂
