What Parents Need to Know

About Wiggletime

Parents need to know that this site has very limited entertainment value without a paid subscription, which costs $5.95 per month (with discounts for subscriptions). While the monthly fee is not outrageous in comparison to other pay sites, it is really a must, as it unlocks almost all interactive games, all of the parent tracking tools, and most of the video on the site.

Did this review help you decide?

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about exploring new worlds and interacting with strangers. In one of the interesting twists to the site, the child’s avatar turns into Wags the Dog upon entering another person’s home. The rationale is that children (even in avatar form) should not be comfortable entering a strange person’s home alone.
