Hatchimals Hatchibabies are aimed at children aged 5+ and I think that's just about right for the amount of understanding you need to learn and play the games, younger children my enjoy it, but I don't think they would get as much out of it and the small accessories would be a risk for very young children. But this Christmas there is a new Hatchimals in town – Hatchibabies – with two new EGGciting species to be hatched!

The very top of the egg hatches and you know when your Hatchibaby is born because it sings Happy Birthday, and then you can take it out of the egg to see if you have a new boy or girl to add to your family. To feed your Hatchibaby what you need is put the bottle in the Hatchibaby’s mouth and press down on his lower beak. When the music plays bounce your Hatchibaby backwards and forward, when the music stops, you stop - just like musical statues!You can hear sounds and music coming from inside the egg, it sways from side to side and you see the HatchiBabies eyes glow from beneath the shell. The HatchiBabies come in two new species – Ponette and Cheetree – both from the Hatchery Nursery in Hatchtopia. Whenever we receive a toy to review I am always interested to see how both of the children react to it. Bear in mind one your HatchiBabies has hatched you can switch it off an on, as there is a switch on the bottom to turn it off and on. To discover your HatchiBaby’s trick, hold the back of your baby’s head and touch their forehead sensor twice at the same time and see what it does.

It really adds to the excitement when it comes to hatching your egg, just like it does for parents in real life.
