What better way to spend a Saturday afternoon...then at the Wiggles show....woohoo! Actually I love going to shows with the kids. The excitement and joy on their faces is unforgettable and even makes the small fortune that it costs, worthwhile! I can't believe how much it cost me for four tickets (my mom came with us), parking, a souvenir for each of them which I swore I wasn't going to buy, and dinner out after. What I won't do for those kids!
Actually, the Wiggles show is one of my favourites...and a favourite of mom's everywhere if you know what I mean. There's not many kids shows where you'll see someone holding up a sign asking one of the performers to marry them!
This was the second time we've seen the Wiggles, well, Jesse's first. The other time was about four years ago when Emily was three or four. I enjoyed that first time more, the venue was smaller (Hummingbird vs Rogers Centre) and the show was mainly the four guys and the three or four other characters from their TV shows. This time they had dancers and all sorts of extra people. You can certainly tell how popular they've become. Life just isn't fair...these guys get up on stage for about 90 minutes, sing some songs, and have a great time and I swear they must be bizillionaires by now. They used half of the Rogers Centre and it was packed, even the upper level. The tickets are around $50 each, kids and adults are the same price and the souvenirs are so expensive but sell like crazy. Apparently the Wiggles are worth more than any other entertainer in Australia, including Russell Crowe or Nicole Kidman. Don't get me wrong though, the show is very good and kids love them. Emily was so excited when she got to give one of the guys a "high five" when he came up into the audience.
If you get the chance to take your kids I'd highly recommend it.


Captain Feathersword cracks me up!!!! He likes to get the other guys laughing and then he can't stop laughing himself..kind of like me, laughs at his own jokes!
