We were recently lucky enough to be sent the Hatchimal
Colleggtibles Hatchery Nursery to unbox and review.
If you are a regular to our blog and YouTube channel you may
have read our previous review of a Hatchimal Colleggtibles toy here. If you
have you will know that my children Annie and Freddie love these toys.
They were therefore excited to open this toy and get
playing.
Hatchimals Colleggtibles are an impressive set of toys that
all revolve around the mini plastic creatures that each come inside a cute
little 'blind bag' egg. You can buy the eggs individually or in various sized multipacks or
get them inside toy sets such as this Hatchery Nursery.
The eggs ‘hatch’ by being cracked open just like a real egg,
and you then discover which character is inside. Normally you do this by rubbing the pink heart on the front of the egg until it changes colour at which point it will be soft enough to crack. The wonderful thing about the Hatchery
Nursery is that it includes a lift, or elevator if you speak American as my son
often does (thanks YouTube), and as your egg travels up in the lift it cracks open.
This was exciting for the kids to try however, as the set
only comes with one egg you would have to collect more to get a lot of use out
of the lift.
Not to worry though, there are many more ways to play with
this set.
Your characters can hang from the trees, take a rest high up
in the tree top nests, relax on the high chair, take a spin on the roundabout,
swing on the double swing and slide down the slide. If that weren’t enough they
can also take a shower.
This set is aimed at children who are five plus which I believe
is a perfect age range suggestion. For guidance Annie is eight and Freddie is
five and they both enjoy this set.
It is a fun toy set that is well made and will be very
appealing to children. It also gives your child the option to start a
collection by buying more eggs and characters. A single egg is priced at around
£3 so is a great price point for avid collectors.
If you want to see this toy in action, then watch Annie and
Freddie’s video review of the set here:
The recommended retail price for this set is £29.99.
Please note we were kindly sent this item for the purpose of
this review, all opinions are mine.
Thank you for reading.
