Where it starts
Nobody sits a toddler down and teaches them a chant. They pick it up. A button gets pressed, the song starts, and by the third time round they are joining in on the bit they know.
Most of the football in your life, you have watched on your own. This is the part you get to do together.
Chosen with the club and re-recorded especially for kids.
Previews here are nine seconds. On the book, every chant plays the whole way through.
Is this official club stuff, or fan-made?
expand_moreYes, officially licensed. The crest, the colours, the chants, the artwork: all approved by the club itself. Nothing here is unofficial, and nothing gets made without them signing it off.
Is it safe for a small child?
expand_moreYes. Everything is tested and approved by an independent lab in Europe, to the same standards any toy on a European shelf has to meet. Thick pages, no small parts, and a manual in every box.
Are these the real chants from the ground?
expand_moreThe same songs, adapted for children. We kept the tune and the feeling, and left out anything you wouldn't want repeated at nursery.
Do the chants have swearing in them?
expand_moreNo. Every chant is re-recorded for children. Same tunes, same spirit, without the words you'd rather they didn't learn from you first.
Which chants are on it?
expand_moreEight, chosen with the club. On this one:
Can I hear it before I buy?
expand_moreYes. There are videos further up this page with the chants playing, so you can hear exactly how it sounds before you decide.
How loud is it, honestly?
expand_moreLoud enough to feel like a crowd, quiet enough that you'll survive it. Three volume levels, set from a button on the back, and the lowest one exists specifically for car journeys and seven in the morning.
Can I turn the sound off completely?
expand_moreYes. It switches off, so the book stays a book when you need it to be.
Will it survive a toddler?
expand_moreThat was a design requirement, not an afterthought. Thick board pages, buttons built to be hammered, and impact tested before it ever shipped.
What age is it for?
expand_moreNewborn to about seven. Babies go for the sound, toddlers hammer the buttons, and by four or five they're singing along with the words on the page.
Does it need batteries?
expand_moreTwo AAA, already in it. It works the moment you open the box.
How long will it take to arrive?
expand_moreThree to five days in Europe, the UK and the United States. We hold stock in each of them, so your order ships from a warehouse in your own country.
Can I have it gift wrapped?
expand_moreYes. You can add gift wrapping or one of our gift boxes at checkout, so it arrives ready to hand over rather than ready to unpack.
What if we don't like it?
expand_moreThirty days, full refund, no questions asked. If it doesn't land the way you hoped, tell us and we'll sort it out.

I got it for my son because I wanted to introduce him to football and start his love for West Ham, just like his dad! The little one absolutely loved it. He was obsessed with pressing the buttons and listening to all the chants! My husband joined in, and they both had so much fun together. It was amazing to see them enjoying the experience and sharing their love of West Ham. It’s such a lovely way to introduce the next generation to the club and create special memories together. Hopefully, this is the beginning of a lifelong love for West Ham!

Really enjoyable and the chants sound clear. A couple of the buttons needed a firmer press at first, but my child soon got used to them. Our little West Ham fan keeps coming back to it!
