Wheels on the Bus is an award-winning children's app that has received recognition from various organizations and media outlets. It has been awarded the Parents' Choice Gold Award, the KAPi Award for "Best Children's App" at the International CES, and the Editor's Choice Award for Excellence in Design from Children's Technology Review. It has also been consistently ranked as a Top 10 Educational App on the Apple AppStore since 2009 and was even featured in Steve Jobs' keynote address announcing the launch of the iPad 2.

Wheels on the Bus is an interactive musical book based on the popular children's song. It allows children to engage with the story by spinning wheels, opening and closing doors, swishing wipers, popping bubbles, and making a dog bark. This not only provides entertainment but also encourages cognitive, language, and motor development in children.
The app offers various features to enhance the learning experience for children and parents. It allows for singing and reading along with the song, which is available in multiple languages such as English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian. Parents can also record their children singing and listen to the music played on different instruments like a violin, cello, piano, and kazoo. The interactive illustrations also provide opportunities for children to touch, explore, and discover fun surprises.
