One lucky Queensland kindy will win a visit from iconic children’s band The Wiggles as part of a campaign to help children learn about electrical safety.
Entry into the competition is simple, with children, parents, guardians and educators encouraged to take a photo or video that highlights why electrical safety is important using messages from The Wiggles’ song Electricity!
The Queensland Government first partnered with The Wiggles in 2022 to teach children about electrical safety, with the pair joining forces once again in 2023 to spread the free kindy message to Queensland families.
Thirteen competition runners-up will receive family passes to The Wiggles’ April concert in Brisbane.
Minister for Industrial Relations Grace Grace said the government wants Queensland children to understand the dangers of electricity.
“The Wiggles shared the Miles Government’s Free Kindy message to thousands of Queenslanders and their song Electricity! has been viewed over four million times,” she said.
“This competition is a rare opportunity to dance along with The Wiggles at your local kindy and as the honorary Pink Wiggle, I can’t wait to see plenty of creative entries.”
Minister for Education Di Farmer said, “We know how important the early years are to a child’s life – that’s why the Miles Government made kindy free.
“It is important to teach children safe habits while they are young and The Wiggles’ song Electricity! does exactly that.”
Blue Wiggle Anthony Field said that for more than 30 years, The Wiggles have educated and entertained children and their families through music, song and dance.
“We’ve created a new song about electricity that we hope will have a positive impact on children and help to keep them safe.”
