Review #9886 - Dated: 3rd of October, 2013
Author: sweetpea |
Having had no idea who the Wiggles were seven years ago since then I have watched many more hours of Wiggles on DVD than I care to admit to (and a few concerts) so I can admit to being rather sad when the original Wiggles crew abandoned a rather lucrative and incredibly successful live career to "work behind the scenes". I wasn't particularly enamoured with the new Wiggles when they were introduced in the Wiggles Final show and unfortunately I haven't quite thawed!
Anthony is a huge favourite with both me and my girls and Captain Feather Sword is a big favourite of my Miss Five (who is also Dorothy mad) so thankfully they both play a huge part in this DVD, The replacement Wiggles Emma, Lachy and Simon aren't quite the same as Greg, Jeff, and Murray (or Sam) however the original Wiggles crew had preformed together for over 20 year so I think in that time you build a strong connection and Emma, Lachy and Simon may well develop that over time.
The Pumpkin Face theme is all about Halloween and this DVD goes through 20 songs all with a Halloween theme with the cast dressed up in lots of different Halloween outfits and in different locations. It didn't flow quite as well as some of the other DVDs that we have but the kids still loved it. My little Misses' have watched this many times and I often catch them dancing around the lounge and copying the moves. As with all the Wiggles songs there are some that just stick in your head and all are very catchy tunes. There are some original songs here and some that have been altered slightly to fit with the theme.
Overall if your children love the Wiggles and are into Halloween then they will, I imagine like my children, love this DVD. With Halloween coming up the release of this DVD is timed perfectly and this Pumpkin Face DVD will definitely have the kids (and possibly you) in the Halloween mood.
