Wiggles love to sing, dance munch honey cakes
The Wiggles began their journey toward becoming the world's No. 1 preschool band more than 15 years ago in Australia. Since then they've sold millions of CDs, DVDs, books and other merchandise, and Anthony Field (Blue Wiggle), Murray Cook (Red Wiggle), Jeff Fatt (Purple Wiggle) and Greg Page (Yellow Wiggle) recently wrapped up another U.S. tour, bringing their favorite characters and adventures along for both kids and adults to enjoy. When it comes to wholesome entertainment, The Wiggles and their friends Captain Feathersword, Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog and Henry the Octopus are at the top of the list.
Anthony Field, the "Blue Wiggle" responds for the group:
Favorite song about food?
"'Fruit Salad.' We write songs that are relevant to children, and eating is such a big part of a child's day. We like to encourage healthy eating, and fruit salad is one of my favorite things to eat."
Who is the group's best cook?
"None of us are great cooks, but having been on the road for many years we've developed some skills. Jeff is quite experimental. And myself being Australian and married to a Greek background, I can do a great BBQ with lamb."
