to want to play Club Penguin myself?!?!

[LolaTheShowgirl]

Come on, we all know how fun the slopes are!

I sometimes play when dcs are at school. They are always amazed when the come home to loads more coins than they thought they had!

lol it is cool

are you all subscribers then? dh & I scoffed at the idea of paying for subscription and told dd1 to use other websites instead...

is it actually worth it?

I keep saying to dd that I will just have a quick game "to earn her more money"

Haven't subscribed yet, but might do

I didn't realise you can play without subscribing (that would have averted a tearful tantrum and having dd1 shove her pocket money at me )

We haven't subscribed here. Just play for free. The only thing is you can't buy things apart from different colours for your penguins, background pictures or things when the fair visits but that's no problem coz basically the only things we cant buy are decorations for the igloo and clothes for the penguin. It's definately worth just joining on a free membership. Apart from the above, there seem to be no other restrictions. It's really good fun and really safe too!

You can buy puffles too

Yeaaa, puffles are cute

I actually can't believe several mumsnetters have admitted to playing it!

I think it's really worth joining. Apart from anything else, I use it as a reward/sanction - ds has to maintain a reasonable level of behaviour or I put off renewing his membership for few days. It's done wonders for his reading,he has huge amounts of fun and he's also learnt the hard way that if you tell your friends your password, it's possible that someone will log on as you, say a rude word and you end up banned for 24 hours!
