The Wiggles have created a catalogue of music, television, video and film that have proven to be modern classics. The Wiggles have always been a touring band, which in part explains the success they have enjoyed. They have kept in constant contact with their public and the public has responded to the music and characters they have created. The Wiggles is an Australian success story that cuts across all demographics, it has now begun to spread across the world stage.

"The Sydney-based children's group are on more solid ground. With goof-ball grins, a chunky dinosaur name Dorothy, and song titles as simple as Hot Potato, The Wiggles' Anthony Field, Murray Cook, Jeff Fatt and Greg Page have struck gold with pre-schoolers………It's this very quality, of course, that kids, parents and educators love. The Wiggles promote social behaviour, urging children to engage with a world that is becoming increasingly virtual."
Michael Fitzgerald TIME MAGAZINE

"No live artist or band in the history of Australian children's entertainment have sold as many records or videos or had as many people to their concerts". For parents, The Wiggles are a bright spot in an often confusing jumble of children's entertainment options"
Miranda Devine TELEGRAPH MIRROR


- A VERY GOOD PLACE TO START -

So nothing is left out, let's start at the very beginning!
Anthony Field, Murray Cook and Greg Page met while studying Early Childhood Education at Sydney's Macquarie University. The three began writing children's songs as one of their music projects. They enlisted the assistance of Jeff Fatt, who played with Anthony in the popular 1980's band The Cockroaches, and The Wiggles were born. The Wiggles took the finished tape to ABC Music, who released a self-titled album in 1991.

"The Wiggles" album has since achieved Gold and Platinum status
and The Wiggles themselves have gone on to become one of the most popular and successful performing acts in Australia, in any age group.
Now in their thirteenth big year, The Wiggles continue to entertain more and more children around the world. Their ability to relate to their young audience and to create songs that are both entertaining and educational has made The Wiggles incredibly popular with both children and their parents. (It has been estimated that one in two toddlers in Australia either sing-a-long to The Wiggles on video or CD at home or have been to a Wiggles concert). Couple their unique song-writing ability with the foursome's genuine enjoyment of what they do, and the result is a live show which has the littlies (and adults) dancing, clapping and singing in the aisles. The band's Early Childhood training continues to influence the approach they take with their live shows, videos and The Wiggles Movie. Anthony Field feels that a lot of The Wiggles success comes from their knowledge of child development. "A lot of what we do comes from a child's perspective", says Anthony. "It's got a lot to do with what songs are about and the language we use, and I like to think we know how to write pretty catchy tunes. Right from the start we gave a lot of thought to what was appropriate for children's music."

My duaghter and i love the Wiggles. they were the first movie that she sat through and that right there one them a place in my heart. they also write their own songs and music so they are not like other kids shows that jsut take classic songs and change the words. and for those who think its GAY to dance and have fun with children i hope you aren't parents because what kind of sad life your children have.

The Teletubbies, since there actually IS a gay one. The Wiggles are straight.

Tellitubies. I'm sorry I know my baby brother and my friends son loves them. But I'm really uncomfortable with all the touching and than the "Big Hugs" every 10 minutes. The hello's are enough and the rubbing bellies is sick. I can understand grown man playing unusual games with children but them little puppets can lure your kids easier than men. While your child is growing up you teach them to refuse anything and not even to speak back to a stranger. What are you suppose to tell your child of a fat, gay puppet that is so colorful that you can't help it but to follow it?

Definitely the Wiggles! When I first learned about them, my thought was "why are these grown men playing around with young children and could they be any gayer?!".

Don't know if you can refer to big colorful blobs as gay, cause first, how do we know their genders. So I will have to go with wiggles. We know they are human and all male (unless the surgeries were successful).
