Description

This grow your own hatching egg toy keeps a shark tucked away inside a speckled shell, waiting for a little water to bring it out. The egg is a soft creamy yellow scattered with fine dark speckles, rather like a real bird's egg. It stands 11cm tall and 7.9cm across, a generous size that sits comfortably in a cupped hand. It comes in a deep navy box printed with the words Grow Your Own Shark and illustrated with sharks, so it looks the part from the moment it arrives. The shark inside is one of three varieties chosen at random, which means nobody knows quite which one they have until it hatches.

Hatching is simple, and watching it happen is the best part. Submerge the egg completely in water, then wait: after 24 to 48 hours it hatches and the shark appears. Over the five to eight days that follow, the shark keeps growing until it reaches its full size, so there is something new to see every day. It suits a kitchen table, a windowsill or a desk at home, anywhere it can sit undisturbed and be checked on each morning. Anyone who enjoys a slow, hands-on project will like keeping an eye on its progress.

All it needs is the egg itself and enough water to cover it, and a clear glass bowl or jar makes the growing shark easy to watch from every side. We would stand the container somewhere level and steady, away from the edge of a counter, and keep a soft dry cloth close by for any drips or splashes. The egg weighs just 0.141KG, so it is light enough to tuck into a parcel. Its printed box means it is ready to give as it is: a small gift with a slow, satisfying reveal for anyone with a soft spot for sharks.

Once it is fully submerged in water, the egg hatches after 24 to 48 hours. The shark then grows to its full size over the following five to eight days.

Which shark will I get?

The shark inside is one of three varieties chosen at random. We cannot promise a particular one, which keeps the hatching a real surprise.
