HOW TO MAKE YOUR TAMAGOTCHI GROW
Hatch, raise and take care of Tamagotchi Friend! They can grow from baby to adult, and
even get married! This fun, interactive virtual friend will grow and develop differently
depending on how well you take care of it. Once your Tamagotchi egg has hatched, feed it
food when it is hungry, give it medicine when it is sick, potty train it, bathe it and play
games to earn Gotchi points. And “bump” with other Tamagotchis to send text messages,
send gifts and even have your virtual friend go on a playdate! The more you “bump” the
more points and rewards you will earn and the higher your best friend meter will go. Then
use your points to buy meals, snacks and jewelry in the shop or share items with your
friends by giving and receiving gifts.

Tamagotchi; place 2 - 1.5v AAA batteries into
