The object of this game is to grab worms that match the color of each of your cards. Each player in turn pulls the lever back on the apple, and grabs worms, one at a time. If you pull a worm whose tail matches one of your cards, place the worm next to that card, and grab another worm to continue matching.

Etymology. From Middle English wiglen, probably from Middle Dutch wigelen (“to wiggle”) and perhaps Middle Low German wigelen, frequentative of wiegen (“to rock”), from wiege (“cradle”).
In earthworms, each segment can move independently, so that alternating contractions between the two different sets of muscles in many different segments create shape changes all along the body. This produces accordion-like body movements that help the worm push through soil and maneuver through small spaces within.
Babies, especially very young infants, often move around. These movements are pretty uncoordinated, with arms and legs flailing about, largely because of this rapid neurological development in the first few months of life. If your baby is wiggling and crying a lot, try swaddling her.
Red wigglers are reddish-brown in color, have small rings around their body and have a yellowish tail. They have groups of bristles (called setae) on each segment that move in and out to grip nearby surfaces as the worms stretch and contract their muscles to push themselves forward or backward.

You are a worm and you slither around looking for food to eat to get longer. Other worms, likewise, slither around you seeking for food and trying to cut in front of you. When your head hits another worm you become food for worms. Try to intercept your enemies as they slither to kill them and eat their mass.
The name stems from the Old English word wyrm. Most animals called "worms" are invertebrates, but the term is also used for the amphibian caecilians and the slowworm Anguis, a legless burrowing lizard.
Strange Flatworm
A worm called Xenoturbella bocki is the master of minimalism in worms. It has no mouth, stomach, brain, or any internal organs! The only thing this primitive worm has in common with other worms is its shape.
Don't be fooled though, they make up for it with the interesting aspects they do have. Like five hearts that squeeze two blood vessels to push blood throughout their little bodies. Earthworms have mucus and little hairs covering their skin that allows them to move through different types of soil.
They might sense something, but it is not painful and does not compromise their well-being." The government called for the study on pain, discomfort and stress in invertebrates to help in the planned revision of Norway's animal protection law.
In short, earthworm movement is basically a matter of pushing the head forward, digging in with the setae, pulling the tail end up toward the head, and repeating this cycle. They do not slither with a side-to-side motion like a snake.
Composting worms, or Red Wigglers, are not picky eaters. They will happily digest a wide variety of organic plant material into nutrient rich worm castings. I put old lettuce in there, rotten vegetables, potato peels, fruit, grass clipping, and leaves, just to name a few. They especially love the fruit.

The Woolly Worm (or woolly bear as it is sometimes called) is a mainly black fuzzy caterpillar with a brown center band. A “look, but don't touch” approach is most prudent with both of these furry visitors. These caterpillars rely on their fuzzy hairs to protect them from predators.
Wriggle sounds a lot like wiggle, and the two words very nearly mean the same thing. There is a subtle difference, though: when you wriggle, you twist, turn, or bend as you move. When you wiggle, you make more of a back-and-forth motion.
