Using this turtle egg toy is super easy. First, find a small container and add some water to it. Then, gently place the turtle egg into the water. After that, just sit back and wait patiently as the turtle starts to emerge from the egg. It's like having your own little science experiment at home! Here are some things to keep in mind. Make sure to use clean water to avoid any issues. Also, don't handle the egg too roughly before it hatches. As for maintenance, once the turtle has hatched, you can keep it in the container with water for a while. If you want to keep it longer, you might need to provide some proper food for it. But always remember, this is mainly a fun toy, so don't expect it to grow into a full - sized turtle. Have fun watching your little turtle grow!
