iPhone dads - the Wiggles app

Well I guess it was only a matter of time ... The Wiggles have launched their own iPhone app. In fact they have launched 7 iPhone apps (!) One of the seven apps ('Colouring In') is available free of charge from the app store - all the others are paid for apps and will set you back $1.29 per app.

So all up you're looking at a spend of $10 if you get them all (not too bad considering what all the other Wiggles stuff costs). Here's a list of the apps with a short description:

• Big Red Car – Drive the Big Red Car while collecting a range of musical instruments as The Wiggles make their way to their next concert destination.


• Big Red Plane – Help The Wiggles by collecting their favourite items on their way to Wiggle Bay! Find Anthony’s flippers, Murray’s floatie, Jeff’s surfboard, and Sam’s hat as you fly through the sky in the Big Red Plane!


• Thirds – The Wiggles are all jumbled up! Sort through a range of heads, torsos and legs to put The Wiggles back together again.


• Maze – Guide Dorothy, Wags, Henry and Captain Feathersword safely through a set of mazes, while collecting some of their prized belongings along the way.


• Tea Party – Dorothy is hosting a tea party with all of her friends! Help her prepare her tea party by catching items as they fall from the sky.


• Dress Ups – Choose from a range of themes and give The Wiggles a makeover. Whether you like the circus, beach or safari, there are a range of costumes for you to dress your favorite Wiggle in.

And the free app "Colouring In" (The Wiggles seem a little pale, and need some colour to brighten them up).

The apps will be loved by all kids who are into the Wiggles ... and perhaps also by kids who are yet to discover what the Wiggles are all about.

All in all an inevitable move by one of the world's biggest kids brands ... busy iPhone dads / parents will welcome the apps as a way to keep the kids entertained for a while. Time will tell how quickly the novelty of the apps wears off ... either way, probably worth checking out if your kids are Wiggles fans.

Enjoy!
