Description

This giant hatching egg hides a little fairy inside, and all it asks for is water. It measures 11cm tall and 7.9cm across, a satisfyingly big size to hold, with a pale yellow shell scattered with fine dark speckles like a real bird's egg. It comes from the Fairies in the Garden design and arrives in a deep teal box printed with fairies, butterflies and garden flowers. The fairy tucked inside is one of three varieties, picked at random, so the one that hatches is a surprise until the shell cracks.

Hatching takes a little patience, which is half the fun. Set the egg in water deep enough to cover it completely, and after 24 to 48 hours the shell starts to crack open. Keep it submerged, and over the following five to eight days the fairy grows to full size, a slow reveal that is a pleasure to check on each morning. A windowsill, a kitchen table or a bedroom shelf all make a good spot for the container, wherever the household can keep an eye on progress. It is a toy for watching as much as playing, and once grown the fairy is ready to join in with games and stories.

The shell has a smooth, gently glossy finish with its speckles scattered freely, so it looks convincingly like an egg from a hedgerow nest. We love how simple it is: water, time and a little curiosity are all it takes. Choose a container roomy enough for the fairy to grow into, and place it somewhere steady where it will not be knocked. As a present it sits neatly in its printed box, ready to wrap, and the hatching makes a lovely shared moment, so we would give it at the start of a quiet week with a few days at home ahead.

Frequently Asked

How long does the egg take to hatch?

Once it is fully covered with water, the egg hatches after 24 to 48 hours as the shell cracks open to let the fairy out.

How long does the fairy take to grow?

After hatching, the fairy reaches its full size in five to eight days in the water, so it is well worth checking on every day.

Which fairy will I get?

The fairy inside is one of three varieties chosen at random, so we cannot promise a particular one. Finding out which one hatches is part of the fun.

How big is the egg?

It measures 11cm tall and 7.9cm across, large enough to feel like a proper giant egg when you hold it in your hand.

What do I need to hatch it?

You need water and a container deep enough to cover the egg completely. A clear bowl or jar lets everyone watch the shell crack.

Does it make a good present?

Yes, it arrives in a box printed with fairies and garden flowers, so it is easy to wrap, and the hatching makes a lovely moment to share.
