The Wiggles: Yummy Yummy

This was actually owned by my now 7 year old knephew who always asked for it when he was only 1 & a half till about the age of 3 when he discovered "real dinosuars", then handed down to my 1.5 year old twins by request... THEY LOVE IT! the songs are catchy, the moves are catchy, all the colors, songs and dancing keep my twin pre-tods entertained, and not just sitting staring at the TV, but up and moving along to the songs dancing and shaking, laughing and smiling. Though I can see how other parents may get annoyed or creeped out by the puppets (only on two songs), my boys are facinated by them and think the jumping crab is hillarious (which is pretty much the point, to entertain them, not me, though with my backround in Ped's Nursing and as a Teacher in a Child Development Center, Im usually up and dancing along, its just in me to be a big kid). I'm not to fond of some of the other Wiggle DVD's but this one is a regularly played one... Plus, Dad can actually tolerate this one, which is RARE, and dance with his kids(needless to say, he gets a workout too) I'm not big on "TV for young minds" but this truly is a workout video for little ones, they're not just staring into the TV with that blank look on thier face, they're up and doing gross motor, moving all the parts of thier body (age appropriate developmental skills perfect for this age!) which is also always a nice change from the everyday routines.

My best friend has a daughter that is almost 16 yrs old now. She is like a daughter to me! One of her all time favorite shows when she was little was "The Wiggles". I remember the good ol' days! I now have a son of my own that is almost 2 yrs old now. I wondered..."Would he like the Wiggles"? They are not on the air anymore (that I'm aware of). I couldn't seem to find any of "The Wiggles" anywhere. I thought...well...I will check on Amazon...surely they will have some of the old videos that you can purchase. Amazon seems to never fail when you are looking for something that you need/want to buy! Here it is...a video of "The Wiggles"! I am SO thankful! My son is very very active! It is hard for him to sit still for 5 minutes. Let me tell you...not anymore! He begs to watch the Wiggles! He LOVES them! I'm SO very happy that you can still purchase some of the old DVD's! This was a hit 16 yrs ago...and appears to still be a hit for the kiddo's today!!! I would recommend anyone with children (even if they won't sit still) to buy a "Wiggles" dvd. They will be very thankful they did! I'm SO very happy to have been able to find this...and we watch it all of the time!!!

Our 20 month old daughter is not that interested in many children's videos but she loves the Wiggles. The music and the dancing keep her attention and she likes to imitate the dances and actions. Of the 3 Wiggle videos that are currently available, this tape is their second best. If you're only buying one tape, I'd recommend "Wiggle Time" over this one. "Wake Up Jeff" is our least favorite Wiggles tape- it must have been done much earlier and with a very low budget. The costumes and props are very "cheap" looking. It's OK, but not as good as the others. Although we play this tape a lot, two of the songs are done by the "Wiggles Puppets." These are some of the strangest puppets I've ever seen and they almost have a demonic look about them. If I were a kid they'd give me nightmares. At first, our daughter was a little afraid of them but now she just tolerates them. There's also a magic sketch in each of the Wiggle videos but we usually fast-forward through it. Maybe when she gets older she'll find this to be interesting but it bores her now. Overall, I think that these are wonderful tapes. They hold our daughters interest. The songs and dances are fun for her to watch and she seems to like the Wiggles characters (Jeff, Murray, Anthony and Greg). It's the only tapes that we have she loves to hand to us, then point to the TV (play this one).

This is winner from the Wiggles. The DVD has 14 songs and they are all beautifully song by Greg and the rest of the Wiggles. This was definitely a great buy, parents if your little one loves the Wiggles, then don't skip this one...Here are some of my daughter's favorites.. She is 18 mos and already they have her up and on her feet moving and shaking and just enjoying herself.... Hot Potato Fruit Salad Dorothy the Dinosaur Henry the Octopus (Henry's Dance) Crunchy Munchy Honey Cakes Joanie works with one hammer Do the Monkey Point your finger (performed by Wiggles puppets and she still loves them..) My only complaint is that they could have added more songs to this DVD, too little songs for the price.. On the other hand the songs are all wonderful and so she has to listen to them over and over again!!!

It's in a variety show style, comedy and bits between music video style shorts, with a healthy food and cooking theme. These DVDs seem to be collections of bits from old TV shows - I am not sure the name of the original show in this case, maybe "The Wiggles Show" or something. It's awesome Greg stuff with a lot of classic tunes in the original TV release context. A hungover-looking Paul Hester, the late drummer from the Aussie bands Split Enz and Crowded House, makes an appearance as some sort of fruit-salad-making rock-n-roll chef. In terms of the release - Yummy Yummy is one of those... unfortunate DVDs. Whoever put this together and authored this DVD made mistakes. It starts right away, no menu, just right into a 4:3 format. And this is no OLD release; it is from 2011. The transfer is terrible; it's like someone popped a dusty old tape into a thrift store Betamax and hooked it up to a DVD recorder. The kids don't seem to care, but the contrast between this and the other Wiggles DVDs is pretty stark. The content is good, though there are better authored Wiggles releases out there.

My little great nephew kept saying "yummy, Yummy" over and over to me every time I'd visit. I didn't know what he was talking about until my niece, his mother, explained it was a Wiggles dvd that his friend had and that he wanted. She had tried to find it, but had been unsuccessful. I immediately went on Amazon.com and was able to find the obscure dvd and it made my sweet Chase a very happy boy. He knows all the words to Fruit Salad, Yummy Yummy and now I do too. This dvd is obviously timeless since I can't get the tune out of my head and find myself humming it in waiting rooms where other adults smile and ask how I know the Yummy Yummy song. Everyone seems to know it. At the time, I had no idea it was a classic. Yes, I would buy this dvd again. And, probably will.

This Wiggles DVD is the "old-school" type without computer graphics. I really like the simple backgrounds and focus on song/dance. My 2-year-old and 6-year-old both love it since the songs are catchy. We're also not fans of the Wiggles puppets, but the rest of the DVD is great. Songs: Hot Potato D.O.R.O.T.H.Y. My Favourite Dinosaur Pufferbillies Henry's Dance Walk Joannie Works with One Hammer Monkey Dance Crunchy Munchy Honey Cakes Shaky Shaky Point Your Finger (Puppets) Havenu Shalom Alechem I am a Dancer Greg does magic with his box of mystery (not a song, but entertaining for the kids) Go Captain Feathersword, Ahoy (Puppets) Fruit Salad

My son loves it!! We were so happy to find this

This video is simply the most entertaining video that has ever been made.It is aimed at pre-school age and my 2 year old loves it and requests it everyday.He joins in all the actions together with my 5 year old.It is great if you want them to burn of energy without rampaging around the house.There are none stop catchy songs from 4 guys who some would say are very cheesey but this just adds to the fun ! Hey I've heard these guys are millonaires now no wonder they are smiling.

this was good, but the puppets are creepy as hell. Having said that, the creepiness doesn't seem to bother the baby - she loves it all the same.

以前ビデオ版を持っており、上の子が楽しんでいたのですが、下の子にもと思い購入しました。ダンスしながら楽しんでみています。購入してよかったです。

Great stuff
