Wheels on the Bus HD
This is a fun, interactive, easy to use app designed for children as young as 12 months. The nursery rhyme 'Wheels on the Bus' is sung, as the words appear on the screen. This app develops the child's cause and effect skills, as when they touch the screen, something exciting happens. The same part of the song will keep repeating, unless the arrow key is pressed to move to the next screen. The child or adult needs to touch the different objects for something to happen. For example, touching the bear makes it bounce.
There are many different options on each page, which makes it fun for the child to see what happens for each animation. This app can encourage interactions between a child and adult, as you can sing along to the song together whilst exploring the different animations.
There is the option to hear the song in different languages (English, French, Spanish, Italian and German). There is also the option to listen to different musical instruments (violin, Cello and Piano Trio). You can also record yourself singing the song, and listen back to this, which makes it fun for children who love to sing nursery rhymes, or more engaging for children who would like to hear a familiar voice in an app. This app was trialled with children who have Autism and typically developing children. All of the children who have used this app love the moving animations and the lively music, keeping them engaged for long periods of time.
