Everybody Clap! Everybody Sing! is a documentary video about The Wiggles' first 20 years, 1991-2011. The video is based on recollection, rather than facts, so not everything they talk about in the video is necessarily true.

It is included on the The Wiggles' Big Birthday! DVD as a bonus feature as well as a separate disc that was included with the Tour Programme for Big Birthday!. It later aired on Sprout on Demand in the US from October 29, 2011 to an unknown date (presumably November 4) and then on Foxtel Bio in Australia on December 10, 2012.

• A "Barney with The Wiggles" clip is seen when Debbie Ries was talking about when they toured together from 2000-2001.
• This was the last documentary to date until it was planned in 2015 that Anthony, Murray and Jeff found some rare footage from the unused/original 2006 version of TV Series 6 with Greg Wiggle and was planned to use it for an upcoming online documentary. But it was later cancelled for unknown reasons.
  • 7 years later in March of 2022, it was announced that a new documentary Hot Potato: The Story of The Wiggles would be released on October 24th, 2023 as a Amazon Prime exclusive release.

• The Cockroaches songs My Whole World's Fallin' Down, She's The One and Another Saturday Night are played in this documentary.
• It is revealed that the answer to Jeff's question of how long will it take to record The Wiggles' first album is a mystery but later Jeff confirmed it took "20 something years" a few years after he retired.
• The instrumental tracks of The Taiwanese Wiggles songs such as Hot Potato, Get Ready To Wiggle, Wake Up Jeff! and Romp Bomp A Stomp are played as well as footage from The Latin American Wiggles and The Taiwanese Wiggles from their TV series.
