Every time she saw the picture in the catalogue – of the pixie flying above a little girl’s hand – she became more and more determined to have one. But it’s remarkably sturdy, and we’ve had the Pixie more than a month now and she’s probably logged more flying hours than the average Ryanair pilot – and yet she’s still going strong. Lift your hands high and she’ll fly high, move them low and she’ll fly low, dancing through the air!

She believes that having a culture of positive behaviour in school, where the whole community works together, holds key to success. So when we were scouring the Argos catalogue, trying to work out what she wanted for her birthday, we invariably ended up settling – time and time again – on the Hatchimals Pixies Crystal Flyer. GORGEOUS DETAILS: Glittery wings, an iridescent dress and metallic makeup make this pretty Starlight Idol Pixie a must-have for your collection! And then the rotor blades began to whir and Ella let go of the legs and the pixie was up in the air, dancing around our living room above Ella’s hand – and only occasionally spinning out of control and crashing into various objects in the room.

GORGEOUS RAINBOW DETAILS: Glittery wings and her colourful dress and makeup make this pretty Pixie toy a must-have for your collection. With just your hand you can guide your own Hatchimals Pixies Crystal Flyers from Spin Master Global! Nurturing positive behaviour in children is as important as teaching maths and English, says Helen Gee, Bowdon Prep’ Headmistress.

Inside this beautiful crystal egg, your little ones can discover the gorgeous grown-up pixie doll, Krystalina Rose with glittery wings. Inside of the gorgeous crystal egg, you’ll find a beautiful Crystal Flyer Pixie with glittery wings, an iridescent dress and metallic makeup. You have to keep it in check with your hands so it does not get on the ceiling, in loose hair, in burning candles or in house plants.Ella’s rating 9/10 – she loves every minute of it, but as with all flying toys the charge doesn’t last very long. Featuring a built-in sensor, your Rainbow Glitter Idol Pixie doll can sense where your hands are as you help her to fly indoors. Once it was fully powered up though, we gathered around for the maiden flight; and I thought, this is the part when her dreams will be shattered.

Personally I didn’t want to get one and neither did my wife, who hates flying toys – as does our Jack Russell terrier – but no matter how many times we told her it probably wouldn’t be very good in real life she still wanted it for her birthday.Crystal Flyers flying toys for kids are safety tested – if you touch your Pixie’s wings mid-flight, she’ll stop flying.
