HATCHIMALS HatchiBabies Ponette, Hatching Egg with Interactive Pet Baby (Styles May Vary), for Ages 5 and Up

Great product, bought it on sale at a fantastic price for £22.99 (can't go wrong) my nieces face lit up on Christmas day, the baby versions are really cute and come with accessories, they also hatch and talk just like the original ones (same size too). I found these ones looked more cuter than the mystery ones, which I also bought one of those versions for my other niece. Very pleased with the price, the RRP is around £60, so this was a great buy.

I bought my niece for one of these for christmas on the advice of some ladies at work. I couldnt quite believe it as the thing hatched, it was a bit surreal! there was a lot of instructions that went along with it and although i think kids get the hang of things pretty quick i do think the parents need to invest some time understanding how it works and show the kids how to look after it. This can be a good or bad thing depending on how much time you have to invest but i do think to get the most out of it the kids will need help and some direction, so dont buy unless you are prepared to do that.

Not the easiest to get it to sit in the egg for a child, but she rarely wants it sat in the egg so its a minor

Daughter had been wanting one of these for ages and I was dubious due to the cost. Bought for half price in the black Friday sale and at that price, think the hatchimals are worthwhile. Kids loved the hatching process and learning all the things it can do. The novelty has worn off a bit now, but I think that seems to be the way with any toy after a few weeks.

My nearly 4 year old had one for Christmas. What a fab present , she’s carried it around with her ever since , caring for it as required. She’s already learnt what the different colours of the eyes mean . We did buy it in Black Friday so was only about £30. Not sure I’d pay £60 for it.

I bought this for my daughter for christmas when she opened it she was so excited. We then went through all the instructions and held the egg and rocked it etc etc only for the eyes to just flash red. We left it a few hours and still the same thing the item was faulty and did not work as intended. Daughter was upset and now i cannot find one for the price i payed for this which was around £70-£80

My 5 year old absolutely loved this gift. She was so excited to see the little Hachimal slowly hatch before her very eyes and then discover if she had a boy or a girl!! The instructions for caring for them afterwards was pretty straight forward too. She loves looking after it.

Simply amazing bought as fun gift for my daughter who was as intrigued as I was - from the hatching sequence to the chicks ‘awakening’ and subsequent reactions to touch and speech! Kept thinking of Gizmo in the Gremlins. Fortunately this one was entirely benign!
