The Wiggles (and etc)

[andiesmama]

Does anyone else have any experience with these "wonderful" guys?? hehe

My daughter went through a phase where she loved them, went off for a few months...now she's back on!! I think because now she can sing & dance/do the motions like they do....

Of course the songs, etc, tend to get somewhat repetitive after awhile, but to be honest....if you dance along with a 1/2 hour video, it's good bonding time with your little one PLUS it's a GREAT workout!! (doing jumping jacks)

If it's not the Wiggles, what characters/shows are your little ones in to? Andie also loves Dora, Blue, Maisy, Sesame Street, and Mr. Rogers.

Just curious!!

Andie l-o-v-e-s the backyardagains, she hasn't really gotten into lazytown yet. She also loves Higgly Town Heroes, that's on Disney channel.

My daughter is of course not really into television yet, but I do let her watch a few moments of it every few days. She loooovvveeesss Elmo! She could watch him all day! She also enjoys Calliou (Caillou?? sp..) and Clifford.

Both our kids, upon hearing the high pitched voice of Elmo, stop whatever they are doing and stare at the TV. On a long trip in the car, I quelled Gavin's (11 mo) crying by doing my Elmo imitation (I think I've got him down good).

 

[Manna]

lol, thank God for Elmo! =) Brea and I were at walmart the other day, and as we were walking past the shoes, I grabbed some Elmo slippers and held them up for her to see. She enjoyed them SO much, I ended up making a fool out of myself making Elmo dance around the isle...oh, what parents will do to hear their children laugh!

My son loves Arthur of all things. Not really a show I think of appealing to toddlers, but his eyes don't leave the TV when it's on. My hubby would like to think Jonathan likes Jakers, but that's really just because hubby wants an excuse to watch it!

I like Arthur. It's one of the few shows that I actually enjoy watching with my kids. There's this sound that the show uses whenever someone thinks back or imagines the outcome of a decision, I'd like to have a recording of that to use in my day to day life.

 

[Manna]

Ah, yes, forgot to mention Arthur...Brea's not that interested in it yet, but the 4 year old that I watch during the day can't get enough of it!

My 3 year old LOVES Peep and the Big Wide World...it comes on TLC around 7 in the morning. It's a cute show.

Also, she loves Dora and Blue...she likes Lazytown SOMETIMES, but the mood has to hit her right. She likes the Backyardigans, especially when they sing. She loves Rugrats and Spongebob.

Dragontales has to be her favorite show EVER. She waits all day long just to see it. Lucky for me it comes on the same time as Dr. Phil (I LOVE him!!), so I get a bit of a break. Clifford comes on the second half of Dr. Phil and she likes that a lot, too...except for the Puppy Years. She likes the big giant grown up Clifford.

She also likes House of Mouse and Kim Possible.

My daughter (19 mos) watches the Wiggles. I have no idea why... I find them to be pretty annoying... and weird.

She loves Dora, Blue's Clues, Backyardigans, and Bear in the Big Blue House.

You sound like my husband....whenever she wants to watch one of their DVDs, he's like "not that one again!"

 

[Redguard]

Yeah!

They all look like a Sharon, Lois and Bram rip-off.

This four grown men in these tight Star Trek looking outfits and weird voices... nope. And that dinosaur could use some work too. Ech!

My 2-year-old daughter loves the Wiggles. We took her to see one of their concerts a few weeks ago. She was in awe.

She also loves ELMO. We have the Wild, Wild, West video and she requests it several times a day.

 

[Redguard]

As for the Backyardigans, I can't get enough of Uniqua. Her voice is too cute.

They hardly have Austin (the kangaroo) in any of the episodes.

We're Veggie Tales fans in this house. Our almost 3 year old absolutely loves them! We're really happy she likes them as they are God centered and teach good values too. Our daughter also likes Clifford and Between the Lions that come on PBS Kids.

I LOVE Peep and the Big Wide World.. oh wait... what do my kids like, he-he. Eleanor is 3 and really likes Hi-5 and Veggie Tales, Thomas is 2 and likes Blue's Clues, Dora, Clifford. As for me and Peep, that opening song gets me every time! Vanessa

LOL, I LOVE that song, too! I can't wait till they come out with Peep videos!

 

[andiesmama]

What channel is Peep on??? I haven't seen it! But from the RAVE reviews (hehehe) I'd like to take a look at it....for my daughter, I mean!!
