CTR Review

Like Twister for your fingers, Fingle uses the multi-touch screen "to get you awkwardly close" by giving you 130 finger flexing puzzles that start easy and get very hard. Two players drag up to five buttons of one color onto their matching targets; their movement makes it impossible to avoid contact, creating intertwined hands. The music is "straight from the 70's" and it can be toggled off. Note: To use more than 2 fingers in all your Apps, turn off Multitasking Gestures in your General Settings. There are a lot of suggestive messages between levels like "now we're getting warmed up." Note that there is definitely flirting overtones to this app ... one iTunes review called it "sex with your fingers" but it's not that extreme in reality. These will probably go right over the kids heads; however you should know they exist.
