T O M M Y’ S B I G B I R T H D AY
The Wiggles LOVE going
to birthday parties.
They drove to Tommy’s
party in the Big Red Car.
Henry the Octopus,
Wags the Dog,
Dorothy the Dinosaur and
Captain Feathersword
were already there.
They met lots of friends in a park.
It was their friend Tommy’s third birthday.
Anthony knew that Tommy has an allergy
to milk and eggs so he let everyone know not
to share any food with Tommy.
Wags the Dog gave Tommy some
wiggly presents including some lollies.
Oops….the wiggly snakes are lollies.
Wags forgot not to share
food with Tommy.
“Stop!” said Tommy.
“Mummy, are these safe for me?”
Anthony quickly handed them
to Tommy’s Mum to check if
they had milk or eggs in them.
If they did, Tommy could not
eat them because he would get sick.
All good!
Tommy ate the wiggly snakes.
They were delicious.
Tommy reminded Wags, he is only
allowed to eat food that his Mum
and Dad say is safe to eat.
Emma and Simon told
Henry the Octopus that
Tommy’s parents always
carry special medicine
if Tommy needs it.
When the friends played
Pass the Parcel, Tommy won
a wiggly colouring book.
“YAY!” Tommy squealed with joy.
Tommy has to be careful
with food he eats but he can
still win prizes and have
lots of great fun!
Tommy’s Mum asked The Wiggles to
help with goodies for the party bags.
Tommy and all his friends got
stickers, stamps, crayons,
bouncy balls and streamers.
All the children wrapped Tommy in
streamers. They laughed when he toppled
over and they stumbled and fell too.
They loved their friend and
they loved to help keep him safe.
And……… Tommy’s Mum had made
a fantastic wiggly cake with no eggs or
milk so Tommy could have it and share it
with all his friends.
Dorothy said she needs
to know more about
food allergies because
some of her friends cannot
eat foods like peanuts or
wheat or fish either.
Dorothy knows it is safer
to share smiles and stories
with them but not food.
Anthony agreed how important it was
to care for others, to help keep everyone
safe and to support those that have to
do some things a little bit differently.
“Thank you for coming to my party,”
smiled Tommy when it was time for
everyone to go home.
The Wiggles and their friends
waved goodbye.
“Good-bye me hearties,”
called Captain Feathersword.
“It was a great party,”
said Anthony,
“and the best thing was that
we all knew it was important
to keep Tommy safe
from eating food that
would make him sick.”
