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 Each Hatchimals WOW Includes: 1 Hatchimals WOW, 1 Re-Hatchable Egg, 1 Confetti Fruit Accessory, 1 Instruction Guide. It’s really interactive and once figured out, is really good fun. It’s also good to play with your child for some time together.

Recording your voice is fun and we did manage this. You hold both of the Hatchimals feet and the eyes go a teal colour. Say what you want to say and let go of the feet. You can make your recording be on repeat on pitch up depending on holding toes or touching the forehead or belly. The instructions are so hard to decipher. As they cater for all languages, you have to wade through a lot, to find what you are looking for. Also they are complex! For example when recording your voice, there are so many things you can do and kids will need help with this. 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. 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. Touch one of it's toes three times to make the Hatchimals Wow sink down. Tap one of the toes again to make it start growing again.This year we have also tested out the fab Owleez flying Owl from Spinmaster, which is another fab toy for Christmas. You can read more in our review. Play peek-a-boo. If you put the egg top on the top of it's head it's eyes will turn off and it will make curious sounds. Take the top off and it's eyes will light up and it will say peek a boo! Try tapping one of it's toes while the egg is on top of it's head too.

Hatchimals WOW is the first ever rehatching Hatchimal, and inside features a character called a Llalacorn, which is a super soft, super cute creature – part unicorn, part Llama. 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. Inside the largest Hatchimals egg ever, you could hatch a pink or purple Hatchimals WOW in only 5 minutes! Then, extend the egg play and hatch again and again. I love this idea, as the magic isn’t over. Each time Llalacorn wakes up, she’ll be in 1 of 10 surprise moods!When touching her toes the Llalacorn is supposed to pump up and grow before “popping” like a balloon and deflating down to her usual height. Whilst we did manage to get her to do this on a couple of occasions (and the height she grew to was really impressive when it worked!), many times she did not respond, and I was never able to successfully capture this on video.

You can then remove the Hatchimal from the egg base and start to play! You can see on the picture below it is moving, as my eldest was removing it from it’s egg base. As the egg can re-hatch, there is much less waste. I found with previous Hatchimals product, the egg goes everywhere and it is a lot of plastic waste. The pink egg is re-usable and actually fun to play with in another context! Then I heard about the release of Hatchimals WOW – and quite literally WOW – I was pretty impressed by the concept even as a grown up! A hatchimal that not only grows and changes in size, but can be hatched over and over again, waking up in one of 10 different moods!! The hatching is by far the girls favourite part, so I felt that Hatchimals WOW would offer something a little different to what we had experienced before. Spinmaster very kindly sent us a Hatchimals WOW to review with the girls, and we were all pretty excited!Hatchimals WOW is a new type of Hatchimal, a Llalacorn! Part Unicorn and part Llama. They come from Cape Confetti in Hatchtopia and can grow... 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!

You can tilt the egg and hold it there to cuddle it - it will show pink eyes. If you keep it tilted for more than 30 seconds it will fall asleep and show white eyes. The new Hatchimals WOWfeaturesover 250 sounds and reactions; so much to discover.She shrinks down when she’s held; chases her accessory up and down; sings along to music; grows tall to reach the high note and more!Overall I have to say, I was a little disappointed with the Hatchimals WOW, in comparison to the Hatchimals Hatchibabies we reviewed last year. Even though it re-hatches there are a couple of niggles, such as it doesn’t work on carpet or when you are holding it and the hatching process is not as fun. I share interiors, recipes, parenting tips and lots more. I also have a popular YouTube channel if you want to see more of us! It’s very cute and kids who love to care for something, will love it. Cuddling and playing with it. 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”. A fun part of knowing how to make your Hatchimals WOW work is knowing how to make it grow - it is quite a sight to see and the toy's main cool feature.
