The Blaze and the Monster Machines app, Nickelodeon’s overall top-ranked preschool app of 2016, will add a new Light Riders location, available via in-app purchase in early February. Users can join Blaze, Crusher and Pickle as they race on 15 new tracks in the nighttime location, overcoming obstacles along the way. The location introduces the new STEM concept of reflection by showcasing the use of glowing tracks and racer headlights that illuminate elements in the dark.
Preschoolers can continue the adventures of light-up Blaze with Nickelodeon’s Blaze and the Monster Machines Light and Launch Hyper Loop Playset and the Light Riders die cast assortment from Fisher-Price, which feature translucent vehicles that light up when rolled. The products are available now nationwide.
