The Wiggles: Wiggly Halloween

It’s amazing

I will admit I purchased this for my kids simply because I needed a break from The Wiggles: Taking Off. My children were so enamored with the "new" Wiggles that they only wanted to watch that DVD. I was wary about a Halloween DVD as I just didn't see how it could not be campy.I was wrong. The songs are surprisingly sophisticated and the performers execute them well. Once again, I am especially impressed by Simon and Emma and Lachy is far stronger here than he is in "Taking Off." The production value on this DVD is as good as it is on any of their other DVD's.Halloween can lead to some touchy subject matter for kids, but the Wiggles walk that line well. This is definitely one that will be brought out year after year for us!

Great product

My kids, ages 0, 2, 5 & 8 all enjoy this video. Not sure the 5 & 8 year old would usually be caught watching the Wiggles but this sweet video is great fun for all of them. The songs are a little bit different than your usual Halloween songs, but my kids enjoy that! I find myself singing the songs days later. My 8 year old daughter doesn’t like anything remotely scary or gross... she is not offended or creeped out in the slightest by some of the silliness they sing, like “suck the cranberry juice” as others have mentioned. I Would recommend to any young kids or families with all ages.

It took watching this one a couple of times to fall in love with it. They don't typically celebrate Halloween in Australia so this is a fun adventure for the Wiggles crew. My 2 yo twins love the songs and often dance along to the entire DVD. It's great to put in when I need a few minutes to myself. It's fun and silly, not scary.

My son is a huge Wiggles fan. We don't own many of their DVDs because we watch their show on Sprout but figured this one was a purchase-worthy one because my son loves Halloween. This DVD is cute and the tunes are catchy but a little odd. I am not complaining of length or content per se but the songs are not very well known to me or anyone in my family who has seen this. I guess it still did the trick for my son though because he asks to watch it at least once a week and sings a few of the songs after its over. As for me, I think its a cute DVD but it would have been a bit nicer to hear songs I'd heard before (either on their show or just in general). We're still die-hard Wiggles fans!

I had to laugh when I read that some parents were offended by children's songs, but it made me really curious. Sure enough, it was a false alarm...my toddlers (15 month old twins) loved it, the songs were fun and catchy, and my 11 year old got a kick out of it. The Wiggles dressed as zombies were not in the least bit scary (and my toddler son is scared of just about everything!) Looks like some folks need to lighten up. This is a fun Halloween movie for kids!

Very cute! Don't like the cranberry juice song where they repeatedly sing the word "suck." I don't like my two year old hearing or repeating that. Other than that, it's very cute!

My 12 month old son is a Wiggles fan. He enjoys all the songs on this DVD and dances along. He seems to know all the dance steps. Amazing what these infants can do these days! Very nice collection indeed, great music lyrics and dressing up. You cannot help but sing along. Such catchy tunes.

Excellent, as usual, appreciate all the work that goes into every one of the Wiggles projects, dvd"s, tv shows or concerts. Keep up the good work, Thanks, Donna MacFarland, Canada. p/s really injoyed the concert recently at Hamilton Place.

I waited in particular for this one and I'm very happy with the DVD. Thank you.

Entertaining and great songs !

This DVD is much like the usual Wiggles fare, lots of songs and dancing. As with all the new Wiggles DVDs (with the new cast) it is well produced, using real sets and nature rather then computer generated backgrounds.My little one found some of the costumes a bit frightening the first few viewings and needed a bit of reassurance that it was in fact a person in the werewolf costume, but that fear disappeared quickly. There are a few odd and morbid songs like "who killed c*ck robin" (I dropped the "o" so the review wouldn't be flagged! But it's a morbid song). Maybe it's all Australian humour? I guess there are only so many spooky and halloween themed songs out there.Like all Wiggles DVDs now there is a bit of ballet, live animals (an owl) and songs and footage reused from the "Ready, Steady Wiggles" TV show. They even bust out the old classic song, "Do The Owl" but without the Steve Irwin part.This DVD has been a big help for my little one to get ready for their first Halloween as a toddler who is aware of their surroundings. It shows costumes and pretend play, including jack-o-lanterns, skeletons and decorations.
