The brand new "Tickety Toc" website features a 'Play' section which is packed with online games based on the series, such as Moovellous hidden object game "Finding Time", where players have to help Tommy and Tallulah find a selection of hidden objects for Madame Au Lait, "Chime Time Is Coming", where it's very nearly 'Chime Time', and interactive quizzes where visitors can learn more about Tommy, Tallulah, Hopparoo, Battersby, Chikidee, Lopsiloo, Madame Au Lait, McCoggins, Pufferty, Spring Chicks, and Tooteroo, plus visitors to TicketyToc.com can also watch huge selection of high quality online streaming videos featuring clips from the show, all before 'Chime Time'!
The all-new TicketyToc.com also features a News area where visitors can read the latest "Tickety Toc" news, a merchandise section where visitors can learn all about the exciting range "Tickety Toc" toys, books and magazines available, and a 'About The Show' area, where visitors can learn about the series. Visitors can also find out when they can next watch "Tickety Toc" on TV in the broadcast section, and parents can find useful information about the "Tickety Toc".
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 (repeated at 9am and 5pm on Nick Junior UK's plus-one timeshift channel, Nick Jr.+1), and on Channel 5's Milkshake! at 9am (10am on Channel 5+1).
Jennifer Lawlor, SVP Consumer Products at Zodiak Rights, the IP company behind Tickety Toc said: "We're delighted with the Tickety Toc website as it not only reflects the fun and energy of the show, while capturing the shows ethos which is all about the lead characters Tommy and Tallulah getting things done within a given timeframe, but is also tapping into concerns of parents who are keen to let their children access suitable fun digital content, within reasonable limits.”
Jennifer continues: "We know that kids are using mobiles and tablets more and more, and parents are often concerned about ‘screen time’. The 'Timer' feature on TicketyToc.com allows parents to have an element of control, and gets kids used to an automatic cut-off time, whilst still allowing them to have fun!"
Glynn Hayward, Creative Director at Complete Control, the Digital Agency which built the website said: "We understand there is a huge rise in children accessing children's digital content on tablets and mobile devices. As most children’s digital content is built in flash, this content is therefore not available to them on these devices. TicketyToc.com is one of the first children’s brand sites to be fully built in HTML5 and CSS3. The site is designed using ‘responsive design’, which adapts its layout automatically to deliver the fun site across all platforms."
Glynn adds: "We haven't forgotten laptops and desktops as we know significant amount of views still come from those platforms, but all aspects of the website have been designed to look great and play fantastically across all devices & operating systems."
