CPS Elementary Media & Technology

Preuss Pets is having a Free Webkinz Party April 25th, 26th, and 27th. No purchase necessary. Parents/guardians must be present. Please bring as many kids as you would like.

We are planning four free games. We will have snacks and a live pet class for the kids right after the games. The pet class will feature select animals from each department. A Preuss employee will talk a little about the pet to educate the kids.

Here is our current schedule:

• Friday games start at 5:00pm and end around 7:00pm. We will then have snacks and watch the free live pet class.
• Saturday games start at 12:30 and end around 2:30pm. We will then have snacks and watch the free live pet class.
• Sunday games start at 12:30 and end at 2:30pm. We will then have snacks and watch the free live pet class.

We will be giving out lots of Webkinz and Ganz items to the kids just for playing our games. Everyone is a winner at Preuss Pets! We will also have several free drawings each day (April 25, 26, and 27) for Webkinz stuffed toys to give away!
