The Wiggles is a children's television series that follows a group of four performers, known as the Wiggles, as they sing, dance, and interact with their young audience. Each episode features a variety of songs and skits, along with messages about friendship, learning, and fun.

In Emma! season 1 episode 18, titled "Where Is Thumbkin?", the focus is on nursery rhymes and fingerplay games. Emma, the newest member of the Wiggles, takes center stage as she leads the group in performing classic rhymes like "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" and "Incy Wincy Spider." The other members of the group, including Simon, Lachy, and Anthony, join in the fun as they play instruments and sing along.

As the episode progresses, Emma introduces a new fingerplay game called "Where Is Thumbkin?" This game involves placing one hand over the other, with each finger representing a different character. The Wiggles and their audience participate in the game as they sing and dance along to the catchy tune.

In addition to the fingerplay game, "Where Is Thumbkin?" also includes segments with guest stars. The episode features a visit from the popular children's character, Dorothy the Dinosaur, as well as a special appearance by Captain Feathersword, a swashbuckling member of the Wiggles' crew.
