Google Earth
To see a bird’s eye view of the royal procession, check out this 3D video from Google Earth on YouTube:
The video guides you along the route the royals will be travelling tomorrow. (Seems to me there is a more direct route, but maybe I’m remembering London wrong…) Here’s a link to Google’s Official Blog explaining all of their wedding coverage: A Fairytale Marriage.
Royal Wedding Apps for Children
If Royal Wedding fever has hit your household, but your kids haven’t caught it yet, check out these apps to help them participate in the festivities:
• Will & Kate
Will & Kate is an interactive eBook for iPads. Each page has special effects and the book offers a “Read to Me” narration feature so your child can hear the love story of the royal couple as many times as she wants. You can also turn off the narration if she wants to read the book herself or you want to read it to her. This highly rated app is $3.99 in the App Store.
• Dress the Royals: Wedding Edition
This $0.99 iPhone app lets your kids dress up members of the royal family in different outfits for the wedding. Choose a dress for Kate! Choose a military uniform for Will! Choose the background. Take a screenshot of the and share your royal family portrait on Facebook or email it to friends. If your child likes to play dress up, this app is one for you!

I would love to watch the wedding on the royal family’s official You Tube channel but I want to watch it on tv so I can see it on the big screen. I like the idea of You Tube though.
Hi Sue, Welcome back to The Wonder of Tech! There are ways to watch YouTube on your tv. If you have an Apple TV, Nintendo Wii or Sony Play Station 3, you can watch YouTube on your tv. Certain DVD players that connect to the internet can play YouTube as well. Hope this helps! 🙂
It’s really great message to all the people Carolyn 🙂 Thank you so much for given up here 🙂
Hi Kavya, Welcome to The Wonder of Tech! I’m very glad you enjoyed this post!
