The Disney Channel
What is it?
The Wiggles are a group of 4 men from Australia named Anthony, Murray, Jeff and Sam who, along with their friends Dorothy the Dinosaur, Captain Feathersword, Wags the Dog and Henry the Octopus, sing and dance their way into our children's hearts every morning on The Disney Channel. The Wiggles sing, dance, do short skits and even live concerts. Each episode has a variety of different things going on: Captain Feathesword may be off on a wild adventure at sea, Dorothy the Dinosaur may be in her rose garden eating her favorite flower and the Wiggles...
What is The Wiggles?? The Wiggles is a children's variety show on The Disney Channel. The show is led by four men by the name of Sam (who replaced Greg), Murray, Anthony and of course Jeff. They also have great characters by the names of Captain Feathersword, Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog and Henry the Octopus. Almost every scene on this program has music and dancing incorporated in to it!
My opinion....When my daughter was 2 she became OBSESSED with the Wiggles. She could watch them all day long! Now she is 5 and although she doesn't watch them as much, my 1 year old son is now in love...
review »The Wiggles is the only thing the my son will watch for more than a minute. I think we own about a dozen Wiggles videos. Every time it comes on he'll start dancing and laughing. I can even put a tape on and he'll watch it long enough for me to get something done - like make dinner or take a shower!
Their songs and bits are short enough to not overtax a toddler's attention span. The dances are simple enough for children to imitate without too much trouble. And the backgrounds and scenery tends to be simple and brightly colored.
The songs are cute and catchy. I even have a bunch on...
In this era of high-tech expectations, it's wonderful to see that a show that uses silly skits and simple sets and costumes (each member wears distinctive, long-sleeved, primary-colored T-shirts and black pants) can still capture the attention of preschool-aged children. The other colorful characters -- including a polka-dotted green dinosaur named Dorothy who wears a bonnet and eats roses, a friendly pirate named Captain Feathersword, a purple Octopus named Henry, and a floppy-eared dog named Wags -- add even more humor to the show and have developed their own following.
The Wiggles is a great tv show for little ones. It combines learning with fun and music and lots of songs. THe kids that I've watched it with love it and jump around and dance to the songs.The Wiggles show is lively and upbeat. I think it helps keep children's attention because of the bright primamry colors that are used on teh characters shirts and throughout the show. Children soon recognize the songs if you look them up on youtube and they will enjoy dancing and singing ablong to them.
