This app was created for my infant son. Tap the screen and watch the fireworks explode! To make this app baby proof extra buttons and menus have been removed, and no ads to tap on makes this perfect for toddlers! Tap and drag to set off a string of fireworks! Handles multi-touch so you can set off fireworks by tapping all your fingers at once! These fireworks are easy enough for babies to use and fun for adults too. Enjoy these amazing fireworks! If you like this fireworks app (and are feeling generous) please rate the app.
