Don’t unbox your Hatchimals or Hatchimals Surprise toy until you read these Hatchimals cheats, tips and tricks.

Hatchimals are loaded with sensors. Through sounds and eye color changes, they communicate their feelings. It’s up to their owners to raise and nature them. That’s after they’ve incubated them long enough that they feel comfortable coming out of the egg that they come in. They get their name from that egg; they actually peck their way through it.

On paper, Hatchimals sounds pretty simple. They can be. Kids nurture the egg and teach them the things that they need to know through games after they’re out. That doesn’t mean that the entire process is straightforward. Here are some Hatchimals cheats and tips to get you and your child started with the new toy.

Hatchimals Cheats and Tips: Knowing the Life Stages

Hatchimals are like owning a new pet without necessarily springing for all the things that come along with one. Each Hatchimal has a life cycle. The longer they are played with and taken care of, the further in their life cycle they get. By the time they reach the end of their life cycle, every activity and feature they have is unlocked.

  • The Stage One is the Egg stage. By touching, tilting or tapping with the egg-shell, you nature it.
  • Stage Two is Hatching. During this stage, the Hatchimal starts to break through its shell. Rub the egg to encourage it to hatch faster.
  • Life Stage Three is considered the Baby stage. The Hatchimal has to be fed and cuddled with.
  • Hatchimals learn to walk and talk in Stage Four. They also learn the Dance game.
  • Stage Five unlocks new games. It’s called the Kid stage.

Besides the sounds, you must pay attention to a Hatchimal’s eyes to know exactly what they need or what they want. If you know what each of the eye colors represents, it’s much easier to manage a Hatchimal’s life stages.

  • When a Hatchimal’s eyes are pink, it wants you to listen to its heartbeat. You can do so by holding the bottom of its egg or petting its head.
  • Red eyes mean that the Hatchimal is upset about something. Rub the bottom of the egg or pet its head.
  • Orange means that your Hatchimal needs a burp. Simply pat the bottom of the egg or tilt it forward and pet its head. If the eyes are flashing orange your Hatchimal has the hiccups. You must make a loud noise to scare it.

  • When a Hatchimal’s eyes are green, it’s sick. Rub the bottom of the egg or tilt it. If it’s outside of its egg, tilt it or squeeze its stomach.
  • Light Blue eyes mean that the toy is cold. You’ll need to rub its egg, or rub its head and squeeze its stomach.
  • Scared Hatchimals will have dark blue Rub or tap on the bottom of the egg. Pet its head if it’s outside of the egg.
  • Your Hatchimal is hungry when its eyes glow purple. Tilt it forward.

When a Hatchimal’s eyes don’t glow, they’re listening. Just tap on the egg.

    Regarding the Hatchimal Cheats. . .

    I’ve got 3 that weren’t mentioned.

    Yeah team.
    (Life Stage 4 and 5)
    And, we found 2 of these out by accident. Well, actually by playing with the Hatchimal, over many hours, days.

    First is the Potty Game.
    To get your Hatchimal to go Potty.
    When the eyes glow any color, squeeze the neck loosely while walking toward the bathroom. As you’re walking raise and lower the Hatchimal, up and down, gently, in the air about 2 feet up and then 2 feet down. Like being in a boat and riding the waves.
    Once you’re in the bathroom, Stop the up/down motion and turn on the water, in the sink.
    Letting it run.
    Since Hatchimal’s are sound and touch sensitive – they react to the motion and sounds.
    You’ll see your Hatchimal’s eyes turning many different colors as it starts to go potty, and it makes strange clicking noises.
    Pretty Funny…

    I’ll reveal my other 2 cheats later.
    Hint: How to Hypnotize your Hatchimal. (Life Stage 5). And what you can make it do?
    Stay tuned!
