Rating: Summary: My daughter's new favorite Wiggles DVD! Review: We preordered this on DVD last month, for my daughter's 2nd birthday, and from the second we turned it on she sat as if in a trance! Once again, the Wiggles have figured out what kids like, and they deliver.This DVD follows their success with "Wiggly Safari", and once again uses the outdoor format. It has more of a story/plot than their past videos, requiring more dialogue in between songs, which I was afraid would bore or distract my toddler, but she never even blinked once the entire time they were talking-The Wiggles can do no wrong! The story follows The Wiggles, Captain Feathersword, Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog, and Henry the Octopus, as they visit a deserted island for the afternoon, only to become stranded when Captain Feathersword forgets to tie up the boat. Of course, they manage to get the boat back before long, but not before finding a magic seashell, meeting a mermaid, and lots of singing and dancing. They're joined by 4 adult dancers, who spice things up with their antics. Two of the dancers are from "Wiggly Safari", as is Naomi Wallace, who trades in her dancing shoes for fins to play Magdalena the Mermaid. The songs are charming, catchy, and original, as always. Every time I hear a new Wiggles song, I think "Hmm, not the greatest", but after hearing it two or three more times I always find that I know all of the words, and catch myself humming it in the shower or the car! Several have a sort of retro/beach music sound to them, such as the 60's surf rock and Beach Boys tunes. I absolutely recommend this DVD to all Wiggles fans. Although the look and feel are much different from the TV show, which uses interior sets and digital backgrounds, your little ones will fall in love with this from the moment you turn it on. And mom and dad might find themselves watching and singing along as well!

Rating: Summary: My kids can't get enough of these guys! Review: What i thought was just another attempt to cash in the market turned out to be a video my kids love to watch. The video is about 45 minutes and for kides this a plenty long enough. Unlike the Magical Adventure, this release was shortly after the release in Australia, and it was very enjoyable to watch, even my 1 1/2 year daughter can watch it for hours. I like the story line as it mixes talking with signing and is a break from the usual style of non-stop music. The movie, like the other 2, has a pretty decent plot and the kides seems to follow along. My kids really enjoy it and as a parent I ound it refreshing to find a kids video which teaches some moral values rather than the obligatory and senseless violence. Overall another triumph for the Wiggles.
Rating: Summary: It's a Lovely Wiggly Holiday! Review: Wiggle Bay is a splashing, sunny and the yippiest Wiggles movie of (2002), even when this movie included a brand new character-Magdelana the Mermaid who Henry the Octopus introduces to the Wiggles,Wags the Dog, Dorothy the Dinosaur and Captain Feathersword. One of my favorite songs from Wiggle Bay is "Dance a Cachuca" because I liked how the Captain and Magdelana danced together in the water. I think Captain Feathersword got to know and love the Mermaid best of all.
Rating: Summary: You guys are nuts! Review: You guys who said this movie is horrible are crazzzeeey. *waves hands* I think this is the best video to come out. Why can't see the crazy humor of rolling down the sandhills? Come on, how often do you see 3 grown middle age men roll in the sand together? ( I do mean 3, Greg sat on his butt commanded) Not very often, right? And what about all the bloopers. Sure it's thrown together but it is funny as fruit salad in the rain!
Rating: Summary: Fun for everyone! Review: Your kids will enjoy this if they loved Finding Nemo - also take time to check out Captain Jon Explores the Ocean on DVD (also Available from Amazon)
