Which Wiggles DVD???

18 replies

For my 2 year old - not so keen on the live shows or chat stuff but better on the back to back singing and dancing!

Which would you recommend?

none of them - you'll regret it after you've watched it 3 times in a row

the one my kids loved was the dvd featuring steve irwin. can't remember its name but it's a good 'un! filmed at his zoo. one of the weakest in our collective humble opinion was 'wiggle bay'. we were in oz at the time and it was true wigglemania out there - my kids were massive fans for quite a while.

Hoop-Dee-Doo / Wiggly Wiggly World would be a good combination DVD.

Toot Toot Chugga Chugga Big Red Car is the best one - definitely. We have quite a few. It's not a live one so it's very well produced and it has most of the well known songs on. Amazon or CDWOW do them cheapest. Though I did pick one up in the Cooperative supermarket for £4 a few weeks back

Hoop-Dee-Doo is a bit weird with lots of different nationality songs (from Mexican to very odd japanese if I recall correctly). Bit scary! DD hates that one.

Or Toot Toot / Yummy Yummy

That's the Wiggly Wiggly World half, wmmc. But it's got Rolf Harris and the Wiggles together, for which I will forgive it much...

And it has Morningtown Ride and Down At The Station.

You, know, there was a time in my life when I didn't have the contents of every Wiggles DVD memorised.

PortandLemon has clearly been forced to watch this crap. I have a six inch screen DVD player in DDs room on a high shelf. If she wakes too early we put it on for half an hour while we argue about which poor sod has to get up and take her downstairs so I only hear the DVDs which renders them completely memorised.

WTF is that scary puppet bit on toot toot about?

The puppets are freaky.

Rule of thumb -- the later the DVD, the more chat. Stick to the early ones if you want back-to-back songs and dancing.

Will the martini help to get the tune of Toot Toot Chugga Chugga out of my head?
