My little City fan plays it every day!
A tiny Etihad that opens right in their hands!
Our little William has carried the City pop-up book from room to room all week. Being able to turn the sound down is very welcome after the sixth replay! There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign.
We opened Victoria's parcel after dinner and ended up doing our own commentary too. The buttons are easy to spot and give a good response. Only thing I would change is making the commentary a little longer. Feels special without being fussy.
My grandchild Toby recognised Etihad at once and would not stop smiling. Each bit of commentary follows the picture, so it is easy for a young child to understand. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign.
At breakfast, Nicole suddenly announced that City were about to score. The build-up to the free kick has become a whole performance in our house. It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car.
For Cameron's fourth birthday, this was the present that got opened twice. The team line-up, the foul and then the goal make a nice simple story. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign.
Sarah got a proper little surprise from the free-kick page. It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car.
My godchild Adam opened this and forgot about the rest of the presents. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign.
Tiny Jasmine gave us a huge "wow" when the stadium appeared! It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car.
Connor's first glance turned into half an hour on the floor. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign.
Already City mad, Amy now has a little Etihad for the carpet. It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car.
Saturday mornings with Mason now include a tiny match at Etihad. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign. Simple idea, done really well.
For Lauren, Christmas came early because I could not keep this hidden. It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car. One of those gifts that actually gets used.
Ryan spotted the City badge before I had even taken the wrapping off. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign. Glad I went for this one.
For Abigail, the free-kick wall wins every time, no contest. It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car. Would happily buy it again.
Bought for Reuben, who is normally hard to impress, and it worked straight away. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign. Very happy with this purchase.
This survived Brooke's very enthusiastic first week without a problem. It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car. The current favouite in our house.
For Dylan, I picked it because of City, but the moving pages won them over. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign. The buttons are easy to spot and give a good response.
For quiet little Rebecca, the goal page brought out a very loud cheer! It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car. Each bit of commentary follows the picture, so it is easy for a young child to understand.
With Nathan's small hands, I expected the pages to be tricky, but they were fine. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign. The build-up to the free kick has become a whole performance in our house.
Somehow Phoebe has made the commentary part of the bedtime routine. It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car. The team line-up, the foul and then the goal make a nice simple story.
It took Harvey about ten seconds to find every sound button. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign. Being able to turn the sound down is very welcome after the sixth replay!
The shout from Rachael when the goal scene popped up was brilliant! It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car. The buttons are easy to spot and give a good response.
Every replay gets Rosie doing the same excited goal face. Being able to turn the sound down is very welcome after the sixth replay! One of those gifts that actually gets used.
I gave Edward this after their first City match and it landed perfectly. The buttons are easy to spot and give a good response. Glad I went for this one.
No prompting needed, Imogen found the on switch and started the match. Each bit of commentary follows the picture, so it is easy for a young child to understand. Would happily buy it again.
Even restless Luke sat still once the teams lined up. The build-up to the free kick has become a whole performance in our house. Very happy with this purchase.
I thought Gemma might be too young, but the big pop-up scenes really work. The team line-up, the foul and then the goal make a nice simple story. Properly fun!
Among Finn's football books, this is the one getting opened most. Being able to turn the sound down is very welcome after the sixth replay! Really pleased with it.
Our youngest, Emma, keeps opening and closing the stadium just to watch it rise. Feels special without being fussy. It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car.
By lunchtime, Joseph already knew the order of all five scenes. Much nicer than another plastic toy. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign.
On holiday, Bethany asked for the Etihad book every morning. A sweet way to share football together. It has been brought to the table, the sofa and even the car.
My niece Aaron is not usually one for books, so this reaction says a lot. A briliant little gift. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign.
Watching Amber discover the pop-ups was honestly the best part. Only thing I would change is making the commentary a little longer. Being able to turn the sound down is very welcome after the sixth replay! One of those gifts that actually gets used.
Two-year-old Scott follows the pictures more closely than I expected. Glad I went for this one. There was no need to explain it, which is always a good sign.
Harriet is not usually patient with books, but stayed for every page. The build-up to the free kick has become a whole performance in our house.
The second Matthew saw the City colours, the grin said everything. The team line-up, the foul and then the goal make a nice simple story.
Holly gasped when Etihad stood up from the page. Being able to turn the sound down is very welcome after the sixth replay!
