New Tickety Toc Website: Innovative Features for both Parents and Children
Zodiak Rights announces the launch of a brand new website for popular pre-school TV show, Tickety Toc, and the site is packed with innovative features for both children and parents.
TicketyToc.com is based on the fast-paced, slapstick animation which is shown weekdays on Channel FIVE and Nick Jr. In every episode, the lead characters Tommy and Tallulah and their cast of friends have adventures as they race against time to make sure the Tickety Toc Clock chimes at ‘Chime Time’.
Visitors to TicketyToc.com will enter the world of Tickety Town through the Clock House to interact and play with characters from the show. The website is also cleverly programmed to the exact time of day for each child, wherever they are in the world so that they can enjoy the full ‘Chime Time’ experience.
TicketyToc.com uses bright colours and imagery as well as engaging functionality to allow children to easily navigate around the site. The site comes packed with games, interactive elements and useful information for parents. Visitors to the site can learn more about characters from the show by taking part in an interactive quiz and enjoy fun activities and all before ‘Chime Time’.
In an innovative move, the site includes an in-built timer (which can be set from five to thirty minutes) which allows parents to set a limit on how long their children are spending in front of the computer screen, without ‘calling time’ on their fun.
TicketyToc.com is one of the first children’s websites to be fully built in HTML5 and CSS3 allowing users full functionality to enjoy the same experience whether they are using a mobile, tablet or desktop. And while the youngsters have fun with the digital content on the site, parents can have peace of mind that they can choose to limit the amount of time their youngsters spend on the site. The timer can be over-written by the parents, and was included as a response to a growing concern that some children are spending too much time in front of a screen.
The launch of the new website coincides with brand new episodes of Tickety Toc being shown weekday mornings on Nick Jr at 8am and 4pm, and on Channel 5’s Milkshake! at 9am.
