The Wiggles: Taking Off!

This is the second newest Wiggles DVD out in the US and I think it's their best. The songs are great and captivate the kids. My nearly one year old loves it and this is the only show that will actually capture her attention and keep her sitting still the entire time. We watch this one over and over. To be honest, I don't mind it myself. This DVD does include a live performance for one song (the Shimmy Shake) but other than that it's also mostly "regular" show and videos. Again, I love that because I'm not crazy about the live performances on the DVDs. This DVD includes the propeller (one of the best Wiggles songs with a cameo from Jeff the former purple Wiggle), Simon Says, We've Got the Glasses On (great for kids who wear glasses like my 1 year old), Teddy Bear Teddy Bear (upbeat song and very cute "teddy bear" dancing), Meteorology (love this song and it's very 50's sounding - great throwback), Dancing on the High Seas, Peanut Butter (cute song and has a great warning about not sharing "your sandwiches" because people might have peanut allergies), Emma (with the bow in her hair) - this one is adorable for the little girls, Simon's Cold Water Blues - this one is my favorite and includes Simon dressed in liederhosen (spelling?) and yodeling - very funny and entertaining to even the adults. Highly recommend this DVD if your kids are Wiggles fans.

The Wiggles: Taking Off is a super cute video that my son loves. My son is a big fan of the Wiggles and we watch these videos endlessly. This DVD was a very good deal at $7.96 and also since we have Amazon Prime we got free 2 day shipping. I would definitely recommend this video to anyone that has kids. The Wiggles are always energetic and the songs are always entertaining. "The Wiggles: Taking Off" features the three new Wiggles (Simon Pryce, Lachlan Gillespie, Emma Watkins), along with original Wiggles Anthony Field and Greg Page. Taking Off! is the fourty-first WIggles video released. It was released on March 6, 2013 and features some new songs.

Worth every penny! My son started watching the Wiggles when he was about 6 months old (he's now 3), I would rock him back and forth when he was teething, the music and rocking was the only thing that would soothe and distract him. I know some parents don't love the Wiggles, and I certainly am in that boat some days, but this was a really entertaining DVD, we would dance along and Mama over here knows just about all the words and dance moves. When my son started walking he would dance along to the music too. This DVD has provided hours of entertainment for my son and provided me with memories I'll cherish forever. The songs and dancing, even the little banter, are all entertaining. It's upbeat and made my son smile a ton. Definitely worth every penny.

I did not want to like the new Wiggles. My eldest is 8 so the Wiggles have been a part of our household for a long time. We adore the original lineup and Sam. With that said, the new Wiggles are unique and also great. I actually like that they changed to a more harmonic band- this made them easier to accept, like a new kind of music. Emma and Simon hold up the high and low ends of the scale, and Lachey's tenor vocals are a great compliment to them. We saw them in concert as well (the concert version of this DVD) and they were delightful. My 2 year old was transfixed. We listen to this album along with the old ones almost daily. I have this album on my phone so we can listen on the go. My son loves the DVD so he can dance along. It really is worth it to have both if you have a toddler or preschooler!

I think I would've given this 5 stars if it had more "(live) performances" rather than "videos" but overall that was my only issue. My toddler likes to see the live performances much more than the videos because she likes to watch the kids the camera pans to. This has most and more of the "new" Wiggles stuff you see on TV (Sprout at least). There are a few songs that I've seen on TV that aren't on this DVD but I don't think my 2 1/2 year old notices unless I point it out. It's about 45 minutes long which is much longer than the 10 minute Sprout segments. Sheenjoys dancing to the music so this is something I would ultimatley recommend to a little Wiggles fan.

granddaughter loved them

We've been Wiggles fans for a long time. So it was with a healthy dose of skepticism that we ordered this dvd, featuring the new Wiggles line-up. We have to admit, the new Wiggles are a delight. Simon, with his deep booming vocals, is an instant favorite with children. Energetic and talented Emma Watkins is the first female Wiggle and is having way too much fun doing what she's doing. Lachy could be a big star on his own. But we are glad he is a Wiggle for now. The songs are pure Wiggly fun, but with a slightly new sound. We are very happy with the new Wiggles. Who wouldn't?

It’s works perfect and it’s in good condition

this is a show that the kids really get into. The music is alot of fun and you can sing along. I have a young 18 month old grandson and he is dancing the whole time it is playing. I love to do it with him because it is a bit of an exercise for me. It really starts the morning of great for the two of us.

Daughter enjoys it. I wish it had the same beginning as the show, but that's fine. Some of the songs have different videos than the show, so that was fun for her. Daughter is 19 months for reference, but has loved the wiggles since about 14-15 months. The songs are new takes on some classics, as well as some original songs. My Mother (grandma) was excited to be able to sing along with some of the songs with her granddaughter, so that was another plus. Fair warning, the songs get stuck in your head, but it really isn't that bad, as they aren't nearly as bad as some children's shows... I do find myself humming them while walking on occasion ha-ha.

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!

Great wiggles video for my 2 year old - she loved it. The way the songs are divided up makes it easy to watch one or two, or the whole video.

my son loves the new wiggles just as much as the old ones. great music and fun dances for him to sing and dance to! if a wiggles fan its a must have ;)
