MicroBabies (マイクロベイビー, maikurobebii), also known as My Little Babies, were a MicroPets spin-off released in 2003. The bios below are from tomy.co.uk/microbabies. The UK site had a flash game called Baby Derby that had versions with and without the toddling babies, but unfortunately neither were archived. There were also six zip files containing screensavers and icons for the six original babies, and a nursery decorating game. |

Original Babies
Just like real babies, MicroBabies also react to your voice by crying, giggling and making cute baby sounds. They love to sing and dance with the other MicroBabies too! The original MicroBabies consisted of five female babies and one male baby. They were released in 2003 and included a bottle accessory. In the USA, the bottles had text on them such as orange juice or milk, but in other regions they had images printed on them instead. In Japan, the MicroBabies had different designs and were three girls and three boys. They were licensed by Giochi Preziozi for the Italian release under the name Baby Bimbi.

Crawling Babies
Just like any baby, MicroBabies begin to explore as they begin to crawl. Crawling MicroBabies also begin to say their own first words. But as with any baby, they are easily tired and cry a lot. Keep your babies happy again by letting them suck on their own little pacifier, as well as letting them sing and dance together. - Official site description The six crawling MicroBabies, consisting of two boys and four girls, were known by titles in the UK, but were given names in the US release. Their names are Taro, Nolan, Brigit, Kali, Anisa and Cara. Click below for MicroBaby bios and pictures. |
The Babies only have names under the My Little Baby name.

Toddling Babies
MicroBabies are growing up! The newest arrivals are now ready to take their first steps – with their baby walker and then all by themselves. You can hear them say their first baby words and even sing an ABC song to you. They like to play with their toy trumpet and when they are tired you can lie them down to sleep. The third MicroBabies series was released after June 2004, but before August. It consisted of six Babies in the UK and four Babies in the USA. The USA babies were called Talya, Ethan, Kalin and Landi, and the UK babies were named Anna, Jack, Cloe, Tara, Mia and Lucy. They had different box backdrops between regions, as Ethan's does not show snow, while his equivalent Jack, as the Snow Baby, does. We currently need the back of the Toddling MicroBabies packaging to see which baby corresponds to the names, and to find the missing Baby between UK and US releases.
