HATCHIMALS WOW, Llalacorn 32-inch (81.3 centimetres) Tall Interactive with Re-Hatchable Egg (Styles May Vary)

Product Information

You can’t cuddle it and be close to it when you are playing with it, as it has to be on a flat surface. I share interiors, recipes, parenting tips and lots more. I also have a popular YouTube channel if you want to see more of us! There are so many things you can do with your Hatchimals WOW. There is a comprehensive list in the instructions and I will highlight some of the things we managed to do, after we had figured out the Hatchimal needs to be on a flat surface. Sometimes you will find it in surprise moods so if you know how to get it into a better mood that is lots of fun. How to play with the Hatchimals Wow

We are already huge Hatchimals fans in our house, after reviewing the Hatchimals Hatchibabies last Christmas. We also love the Hatchimals Pixies and Hatchimals CollEGGtiblestoo. Spinmaster seem to come up with something fabulous every Christmas, as was the Luvabella and Luvabeau interactive dolls the previous Christmas, which captured both my girls’ imaginations. When it is ready to hatch you will see rainbox eyes through the egg shell and then the llalacorn will keep growing taller and taller until the egg shell has been pushed off! You can re-hatch the egg, which means the excitement continues and you can do this as many times as you want. It can get hiccups with orange eyes or go cold with blue eyes but we didn’t see this before it hatched! The Hatchimal suddenly has rainbow eyes and you hear “ready to hatch music”. You then have to remove the ribbon band and it will hatch if upright. The top of the egg pops off and it sings “Happy Birthday”.As I wrote right at the start, it has to be on a FLAT SURFACE. We spent AGES trying to get it work at the start, until given a tip! A flat surface is not a carpet, it is a table.

It’s very cute and kids who love to care for something, will love it. Cuddling and playing with it. The product has to be on a FLAT SURFACE or it doesn’t work. We spent ages playing with it on our carpet and it just would not do anything. I continually had purple eyes, which I believe is cuddle mode. We couldn’t get it to record our voices, we couldn’t get it to grow or feed with the fruit. We changed the batteries to a new set, as it is recommended after the first hatching and it still wasn’t doing anything. By chance we tried it on a table and after some follow-up advice IT WORKED! The thing you want to do the most (well we did) is make it grow! There are various ways we had success with! Sometimes it will start to sneeze and rise up and say "ahh ahh". Touch it's forehead to move it down. If you reach the bottom the sneeze goes away. If it reaches the top it will do a big sneeze.

My girls needed help with understanding how to work the product. I had to show them and my eldest is 6. Bear this in mind and you do need to read the instructions or perhaps watch a video for help. It’s a good sized product. All kids love something that is big and can actually grow as big as them!
