Twitter’s Vine video service has released a cute new app for kids, but let’s get real: This is a gateway drug.</p><p>
Vine Kids, released Friday on iOS (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/vine-kids/id959063693?mt=8), is marketed by Vine as a fun way (http://blog.vine.co/post/109591575386/say-hello-to-vine-kids) for young children to watch Vine videos. Six-second, looped Vine videos have gained a huge following, especially among teenagers.</p><p>
These Vine Kid videos are quite fun. Scanning through I found creative animations and artwork, and tons of pets engaging in humorous behavior. Tons. There was a cat playing with an iPad and then doing a back-flip.

In another, an army of cute Pokemon characters gathered on a pier.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2878432/twitters-vine-kids-app-is-not-just-for-kids.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
