Welcome to the world of Shining Stars (shiningstars.com) where wishing, shining and sharing makes our world a special place! You can record and name your star and Shining Star friend, play games, and send greetings to all your friends! That's because you are one of the very first Shining Stars in our family of constellations and we need you to make this the very best site we can!

Russ Berrie will be adding many more games, activities and fun so look for shooting star banners for regular updates. Russ Berrie and Company, Inc. creates smiles all over the world. A leader in the gift and juvenile industry, they design, develop, and distribute innovative products that help people celebrate and commemorate milestones in their lives.

Next time you wish upon a star...let it be your very own shining star! RUSS® has partnered with the International Star Registry® in a revolutionary new Shining Stars™ program. The program includes a plush Shining Star® friend, crafted using only the finest of materials and identifiable by the star icon and embroidered Shining Stars® logo on the paw pad... and the chance to literally become a star by having your name recorded with a star in the sky.

You can choose from a wide variety of Shining Stars® Friends to buy for yourself or to give to your own shining star. Once purchased, you can log on to the Shining Stars® website and using the secret code found inside the sealed hangtag, you can register and name your star with the International Star Registry®.

Where is the Star Registered? Your Star Name and Star Date is reserved to a unique star location within the constellation of your choice and recorded within the International Star Registry. International Star Registry star naming is not recognized by the scientific community. We do not own the star. This is like adopting the star. It is something you can point at to know that there is something special out there for you.

The website will show an image and the coordinates of your star that can be printed on a certificate that verifies its exact location in the cosmos. But there's more...for children of all ages, the website is a virtual universe where they can send e-cards, play customized games designed for different age groups and find a galaxy of fun activities.

Young or old, anyone who receives a Shining Stars® friend will have a cherished keepsake to treasure forever, as well as their own personally named star to shine brightly throughout eternity. So, reach for the Shining Stars® and get ready to embark on a magical virtual journey where everyone can...

Wish... Share... Shine!

Shopping for Webkinz? Where to buy Webkinz? We are a store that sells Webkinz and baby Webkinz called Lil'Kinz. The Webkinz Company is Ganz that makes Webkinz for kids. Ganz Webkinz pets are lovable plush pets that each come with a unique Secret Code that lets you enter Webkinz World and play with a Webkinz virtual pet. First you adopt your Webkinz pet and name it. Then you can custom design a room for the Webkinz animal. You feed your Webkinz pets and keep them healthy. You can play games in the Arcade, or compete against other players in tournaments. You can answer quizzes in Quizzy's Question Corner and enter contests, too. All of these things earn you KinzCash, which you can use to go shopping for your Ganz Webkinz pets online in Webkinz Shop, where you can buy toys, furniture and Webkinz clothes. There are stories to read and fun daily activities. The best part is that things are added to Webkinz World frequently, so it's always getting better and bigger. They come in two sizes-- the large ones are called Webkinz (sometimes called Webkins) and the smaller version of baby Webkinz are Lil'Kinz or sometimes spelled Lilkinz, Lil kinz, Lil'kins, Lil kins or Lilkins.

Access to Ganz Webkinz World comes with the purchase of Webkinz plush animal and the family is always growing. The pets without a 'W' on them are part of the first generation of Webkinz Pets! The 'W' is put in every Webkinz pet's paw, so if you see a pet without a 'W' you know it is a first generation Webkins pet.

Newly released Webkinz plush pets or Lil'Kinz pets may take some time to arrive at our Webkinz shop, The Crystal Pineapple, but you can always go to shop for Webkinz stuff at The Crystal Pineapple and ask us to pre-order them for you. We will be happy to do this for you or you can put in an order online. Some new limited edition Webkins by Ganz coming out in the fall and winter are Webkinz Black Cat and Webkinz Reindeer and they may be ordered now for future delivery.

Webkinz World began on April 28, 2005, it is getting bigger every single day. The Ganz Company have a huge team of technical wizards, creative writers, awesome artists and support people who work hard to make Webkinz World wonderful.

You can buy a Webkinz at The Crystal Pineapple and if we are out of stock please enter your order and we will ship them out to you as soon as they arrive. We are Webkinz retail stores that are trying to keep all of the Webkinz toys in stock. We also carry Webkinz clothes and various Webkinz costumes and Webkins accessories and other Webkinz items for the Webkinz pets. Ganz Webkinz gifts are so loved by countless children.

Our Webkins toy store sells Wepkins pets such as Webkinz dogs, Webkinz cats, Webkinz monkey, Webkinz Black Lab, Webkinz pig, Webkinz frog, Webkinz Clydesdale horse and Webkinz beagle. The newly introduced Webkinz Trading Cards make great gifts for Webkinz kids. The kids can collect the Webkinz Trading cards and trade with friends. Soon there will be Webkinz mouse pads and Webkinz Bracelets with Webkinz charms. These are just a few of the new fun things coming from our friends at Webkinz Ganz.

Webkinz.com, with their easy-to-use, pastel-colored Web site filled with positive reinforcement and endless activities combine two key elements that kids crave -- cute, Webkinz stuffed animals and exciting online activities. Unlike some other virtual pets, Webkinz never die (although they might get sick and need to visit the doctor.) They won't poop on the rug.. Sometimes the people call them Webkins, Wepkins, Lil kinz, Lilkins or Lil kins. We all love them no matter what they are called
