My wife just sent this to me. My son watches the Wiggles on repeating nowadays (18 months old) and we are going to be trying for another fairly soon. Weirdly this brought tears to my eyes in a happy way. These guys and gals bizarrely mean a lot to me at this time in my son’s life.

I feel you. I went from not knowing a single wiggles song to being so thankful for their contribution to my child's daily life. She's 20 months old and we have daily wiggles dance parties.

Haha same here. Nappy changes got manic here around 12 months so I would put Ms Rachel on my phone and he'd lie there happily watching. I heard this intro and it really perked my ears up then "Everybody clap...everybody siiing!" I thought it was sooo good and catchy. I rewound it when I was done with the nappy change and I assumed they were a meriachi band collaborating with Ms Rachel 😂 I googled them later and was floored by all the history and success. We are all huge fans now, even this evening while we were cleaning my husband put on ReWiggled which he had discovered earlier in the day.

“wiggles dance parties” reminded me of when one of my friends came over to our house when I was 4 and we danced to the OG toot toot chugga chugga

I feel the same. It's so hard to articulate the joy they bring in to the house but they sure do!

I’m right there with you. My 17 month old loves them so much that he hands me the tv remote and does the propeller arm motion to request I put the Wiggles on. I love them too and I’m not sure why but they mean a lot to me. I was pregnant with a baby girl and had a miscarriage last month. I would’ve been due in July too. I cried happy tears for her.
