MagicFriends Xmas enables children to have real conversations with Santa and his friends on an iPad or iPhone, where Santa is actually voiced and animated by a parent or family member as the Puppeteer on a second iPhone or iPad connected via Wi-Fi over the internet.
Once the call is made the child chats with a fun, animated Santa, Sam the Snowman, Candy the Elf or Prancer on their screen, in a world of make believe.
Children can laugh, joke and hear stories straight from Santa and his friends. They can also tell Santa exactly what they would like for Christmas -- and know he heard every word.
MagicFriends is built on three simple ideas:
• Children live in a world of fantasy and imagination
• Children love to talk
• Parents know their child best of all
MagicFriends is built on the latest VoIP platform, which allows the puppeteer and the child to be in the same house or miles apart.
The app’s voice changer allows the Puppeteer to morph their voice to match each different character. This morphed voice syncs with the mouth movement of the character on the child’s screen.
The Puppeteer controls the animations and with a simple swipe or tap can make Santa and his friends jump, wave, wink, dance and twirl on the child’s device. Welcome to the world of digital puppets.
MagicFriends Xmas encourages children to actively use their imagination by asking and answering questions, laughing, joking, and learning. Developing a child’s imagination promotes learning and creativity. Through conversation and interaction, a child picks up language skills and absorbs the basics of social interaction, which is essential to a child’s growth and healthy development.
