We have quite a few of The Wiggles videos and this one is by far the best! My son just loves The Wiggles and he particularly likes the little skits on this video. The other Wiggles videos are very cute as well but, they are mostly made up of little music videos. However, Wiggly Play Time offers a little more!! If you were only going to purchase one Wiggles video, this would be the one to buy!

My son started watching The Wiggles when he received Wiggle Time for his first birthday. He absolutly loved it. He had never been enthralled with anything on TV but The Wiggles hit the spot.
Subsequently, we bought him Yummy Yummy which was also a hit. He is now 18 months and last week we bought Wiggly Playtime for something new to watch. He is more rapt in this video than the other two. Where as he may have watched his other tapes for 10 to 15 minutes, this one he watches (if we let him) to the end. We believe it's because there are stories combined with the good old favorite songs he knows (plus a couple of new ones). In short, it seems to appeal to his current age, more so than his first tapes. If your child is already a Wiggles fan but needs more than just the songs as they get older, we highly recommend this video. We are Australian and therefore proud of what these guys are doing. Their formal education in childrens development is evident. This video is another quality effort from these blokes. And best of all, our son loves it.

My baby, my husband, and I all love The Wiggles! We have all their videos including Dance Party and love them all. I bought this one knowing it contained all the same songs, but thinking it would have fun material to watch. It does not! Through half the tape Murray and Jeff are laying down on fake grass looking up at fake clouds making comments about what they see. Boring! The other skits are equally boring: Anthony- with a horrible orange tan- eating banannas, all of The Wiggles looking for the bunny in the hat, and The Wiggles dressed as cavemen entering a door. That's it, with 13 of the same songs on Toot Toot! and Wiggle Time spliced into the film at very odd intervals. The songs do not coincide with the skits whatsoever, just all of a sudden they show a song out of the blue! Most are right off of the other tapes, but a few are from a Live Wiggles Show. The new songs are worse since no children are present in the live show at all! My baby loves to see the Wiggles dance and move around, not just lay on the grass or stand around! Even the wonderful dancer Dorothy the Dinosaur just stands around in her garden. A few pirates do back flips is all, but no dancing! This tape is a major disapointment! Go buy Dance Party instead! I gave that one 4 much deserves stars. This one can not get more then a 1 star vote from me or my baby!

My Greatgrand sons {twins} have a few of these guys and they just love them to death! They teach singing dancing how to be nice to others and to family
Animals also
Great video to get for little people

At first I was disappointed with the fact that this video has no new songs on it, but after watching it with my 2 1/2 year old daughter over and over and over yesterday I have come to enjoy the tape. The video shows excerpts from the Wiggles TV show and places them in between the familiar song clips. My daughter laughed out loud at the TV show clips. She enjoys being able to sing along with the songs and dance with the dancers. If you are looking for just new songs, this is probably not the tape for you, but if you are looking for a good mix of laughs and songs, this tape is great.

My 2 year old daughter LOVES this video. We have the Wiggle Time video but she favors this one. We watch it evey day and she even carries the video case around the house. Although most of the songs are ones we've heard before, my daughter really seems to enjoy the little skits which add depth to all the characters,including Captain Feathersword and Dorothy. I only wish the Wiggles show was available on American TV!

I bought this take knowing full well that most, if not all, the songs were repeats from other tapes. But a Wiggles fan has got to have a complete collection. My 3 year old son enjoys this tape a lot. He thinks the skits are funny. From what I've heard, this tape is really 3 episodes of the TV show that we can't get in the US. The TV show has educational value in addition to entertainiment value. In the episode on the tape, they teach about caring for you friends and family and about growing up.

The Wiggles just love to have fun, every day, inside Playhouse Disney...now, three seperate episodes of The Wiggles are put together to become one big music video movie called, Wiggly Play Time.

As always, Greg's my favorite and I love the way he's the Magician King in The Wiggles World.

The (episode names) are, History, Family, and Play.

My 16 month old and I really love Wiggle Time. It is fun and she likes the music and tries to do the motions, so when I came across this at a great price I grabbed it up. So far we have only watched it once and may never watch it again. There is a LOT of talking in between the songs and the stories don't intro the songs--they are just random. I would recommend trying one of the other movies.

We have a two year old daughter who ADORES the Wiggles. Although the material on this video is from various TV episodes of their show, I have to say that this DVD is magical. When we can't watch The Wiggles on TV (they're not on or we don't have any episodes left on our DVR), this is a GREAT fallback when Wiggles are requested! It's also proven itself on long car rides- pop it into the DVD player and voila! A happy two year old who requests it over and over again! I think one of the reasons this is such a popular video with kids is because it's just like the TV show. Some folks seem upset that this video is comprised of their TV episodes-- but that's why kids like it. Forget what YOU think-- how does your child react?
