From the Back Cover

Listen close. Wiggly music is in the air. And it's coming all the way from down under. But this time, something's different. It sounds like Greg, Murray, Anthony, Jeff and.Steve. Steve? Crikey, that's right! We're talking Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter himself. Together with his wife Terri and daughter Bindi, Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter himself. Together with his wife Terri and daughter Bindi, Steve has invited The Wiggles to his very own Australia Zoo for one Wiggly Safari. The crocs are smiling, the kangaroos are hoppin' and the kookaburras are laughin' along to the beat. Inspired by the amazing Australian wildlife, these totally wiggly tunes make learning about animals so much fun. No danger here mates. It's 100% pure, wiggly excitement! Why go on an ordinary safari? Now, you can go on a musical Wiggly Safari with the Crocodile Hunter and The Wiggles.


GetReadyToWiggle.com Review

This is one incredible show from The Wiggles. The movie gives a lesson from Steve Irwin from Animal Planet on each animal before the song is sung. The lessons are quite entertaining, yet even as an adult, I learned information about the different animals. Of all the Wiggles videos we have, this is now my favorite, after seeing it just one time. Alex (22 months old) watched parts of the Wiggly Safari, especially the water scenes and those with Captain Feathersword. He also really enjoyed seeing the live animals.

Wiggly Safari would not be near as good if it didn't have Paul Paddick as Captain Feathersword. He makes this movie entertaining and fun with his incredible animal impersonations, and his crazy antics, not to mention his wonderful voice. Paul does a great imitation of the Kookaburra, sounding just like the real animal. His scene at Sea World, swimming and playing with the dolphins was incredible, and Alex nor I could take our eyes off the television.

Unlike the normal running of the credits, Wiggly Safari shows outtakes during the credits. They are fun to watch, and made Alex laugh several times.

I highly recommend this show, for the wonderful music, the incredible animal scenes and of course Captain Feathersword.
