Teaches: a watch me toy

CTR Review

Part Furby, part Furreal Pet and part Tamagotchi, Hatchimals are plush/robotic bird-like creatures that live inside of eggs. Each egg contains one of two interactive Hatchimals (you don't know which) and there are five in total, which makes this toy into a collectible. The idea is that if you "take care" of the plastic egg it will crack open and you meet a surprise creature. Your creature then develops, through three stages.Your Hatchimal sings “Hatchy Birthday” each time it enters a new stage. It interacts through light up LED eyes, and makes sounds to tell you how it feels. Hatchimals can’t hatch on their own. Your touch encourages them to peck their way out of the egg. It can walk, dance, play games and repeat what you say. Requires 2 AA batteries (included).
