Zhu Zhu Pets and Kung Zhu come to life at Naperville's Ribfest July 1 through July 4

We all know and love Zhu Zhu Pets and the new Kung Zhu hamsters. These cute little guys and girls hamsters play, laugh and giggle all day long. We watch them act silly and train for battle.

Do your kids wonder what it would be like to run the Kung Zhu training grounds or dance the Zhu Zhu dance?

Now they can. The Zhu-niverse tour will be making a stop at Naperville's Ribfest. Ribfest runs July 1 through July 4 at Knoch Park in Naperville, Illinois.

The Zhu-niverse area offers children a full sized interaction with Zhu Zhu pets and Kung Zhu. Kids can run the Kung Zhu training grounds, dance with Zhu Zhu pets and find their perfect Zhu Zhu pet for her. Whether your kids play with these hamsters or not, the Zhu-niverse Tour is a definite must stop at Ribfest.
