Great interactive toy!

My kids loved playing with this toy! We loved that it was interactive. It was very cool that it was reactive to touch and even rolling the ball! There were quite a few mini games to play as well.

Pets for the family who doesnt want pets

This toy was a nice surprise. My kids have been asking for a pet for years and this was good dry run for them to remember to care and feed for a pet. The hamster was really cute and I really liked that you could control the volume on this toy.

Fun toy

The hamster ball was a treat for my kid. Even though he is small he enjoyed looking at the virtual hamster running around. He was fascinated by the bright lights and movements. Love this toy, such a fun gadget to have for your little ones.

Fun and unique virtual pet toy

A really fun virtual pet that my kids have loved playing with. We have the original bitzee and this hamster ball is such a great new version with so much more content, games and characters to interact with. It’s been fun for both my 9 year old and 4 year old to play with.

Cute and interactive!

Such a fun little toy with lots of ways to play. Really cool that you can unlock 20 different kinds of hamsters/characters so it keeps things interesting even after playing with it for a long period of time. All the different types of interactions (touch, rolling, pressing, etc.) are intuitive and easy to learn, also quite enjoyable to see how your pet reacts. There's even mini games too!

Not user friendly

I received the spin master as a free product to try. This try looked promising and my daughter was very excited to try it but unfortunately it did not live up to the hype. The toy was very hard to use and she eventually got frustrated and put it down. There are no writings on the toy it is controlled by moving the slobber at the side which was difficult to do. You had to read the manual to know what the symbols mean which I think as a child’s toy it would be sometimes hard for them to remember. The toy does not talk it only makes sounds which again makes it seem like a baby toy. Overall my daughter did not like this toy and Hans not picked it up since I asked her to try it. I was curious and tried to use it to see why my child didn’t like it but as an adult it was difficult for me to use and it also did not catch my interest

Fun pet toy

Bitzee Hamster Ball is a fun pet toy to have fun for both children and adults. Designed for kids ages five plus, this Hamster Ball features many digital activities to involve. The toy includes a stand and a ball has a digital screen to play with hamster pets. It reminds me of pet apps but I like that this toy is created to be more tangible and interactive. The ball has a big screen and kids can roll it over to show how hamsters run on roller wheels. It is not a toy to play and forget, it offers an evolving journey a player has to take. From baby to teen, from teen to Super Bitzee, there are activities for a pet owner to participate in. A pet owner has to take care of the hamster pet, feed it, play, change clothes, bath and many other options to be involved. Our kids like that there are various ways to customize a hamster's look and choose what food to offer it to eat. It is amazing there is an opportunity for a hamster pet to play with other pet friends. There is lots of personalization in this toy, our children like choosing pets' looks and their outfit. I find it is not quite easy to evolve for a hamster pet but this makes the connection between a pet owner and the pet stronger and better.

Cute semi digital toy

Although impossibly hard to get out of its packaging, my kids figured this toy out quickly and started to have fun with it. It meshes digital and physical engagement which i appreciate. My 10 and 7 year olds both enjoyed on a long car ride (once i got them to figure out how to turn off the volume as the sound effects are the type that drive parents crazy).

Fun interactive toy!

The Bitzee hamster interactive ball is a fun toy that kept my kids entertained and engaged for a long time.
Even my teenager enjoyed playing with it.
My kids were excited to unlock new pets, play games and twist the outer part of the ball to see the hamster run on the wheel.
I've heard them say; "this is so cool!", "wow, it has so many features!", "I didn't know there were so many pets".
My kids also like that the ball is portable and they can play anywhere.
It comes with a stand for easy storage and display and the instructions on the manual were easy to follow.
The adjustable volume is a big plus for me as a parent.
Overall it's a great toy and a hit with my kids.
Thank you Butterly and Spin Master for sending over this fun toy (free product) for my kids to test and review.

My kids love it!

Spin Master Bitzee Hamster Ball is such a cute fun interactive toy. My kids love playing with it. It is like a digital pet and responds to touch. It is like a real pet without the mess and feeding. The animations are so cute and surprisingly detailed. It keeps my kids busy and encourages responsibility and nurturing. Overall a well made imaginative toy that combines the charm of a hamster and digital play. It is also battery powered so no charging and portable
