We thought we had missed a major bullet when Granna and PapPap called this morning and were *thrilled* at the prospect of taking Will to see The Wiggles.
Our response, in the words of Napoleon Dynamite: “YESSSSSSS!”
Imagine our disappointment when we discovered that, actually, they may need to be out of town. What a TOTAL bummer. Back to square one.
Our question: Will is 20-months old. We’ll be in the $15-20 stadium seats… not the $80-100 floor seats. (That’s right… $80-100, per seat, to see four grown men dressed like crayolas singing about ‘hot potato’ and ‘cold spaghetti’.)
From that far back, is Will going to be able to see them, or have his attention held by them? Is it worth $60 bucks (plus the obligatory $10 Dorothy tail or t-shirt) to take him?

You know, I would say, no, it’s not worth the money, but then again I’ve never really watched The Wiggles in action. They may be worth it.
However, I remember my parents shelling out some serious dough on front row tickets for some sort of “Stars on Ice” show with olympic skaters and it is one of my fondest memories as a child. This was a really special occasion – the last family event before my brother was born. But, don’t The Wiggles, just, well wiggle and dance? 🙂

I say he’s too young. If we took him, he’d want to run up and down the auditorium steps and climb up and down the chairs the entire time. After all, he’s only 1. We’ll have plenty of future opportunities to take him to Sesame Street, Dora, Wiggles, and goodness knows what else.
In the mean time, can you hear the sigh of relief from Paul and I??
