Thread Name: BS: Favorite children's show?
Subject: RE: BS: Favorite children's show?
The most enduring show by any standard in this house for my 19 year old D.D. son Tristan is "The Wiggles." For years I blew them off but Tris was loyal from Day One and Karen got me to watch them and see just how good they were with and for kids......and they really are. This group of Aussies have an energy that appeals to kids and several of the company have a background in childhood education.

Tris and Karen have been to two live shows and I must tell you about the last one. They do a very active and interactive show often going up and down the aisles. The red wiggle named Murray was in Tristan's aisle and looked at Tris and went to him somehow knowing he was "special." He knelt next to him for a bit asking him if he was having a good time and saying he was "so glad you came to see us." Karen said that for that moment the only two people in the auditorium were Tris and Murray. He gave Karen a smile and moved back to the stage. Karen said it was obvious he saw Tris was special and knew just what to do. It was a touching moment for Karen and one neither she nor Tris will forget.
