But it returns sometype of "argument list too long" error.
I suppose there is a way to fix it by using xargs but I can't figure it out.

WAIT(1) BSD General Commands Manual WAIT(1)
NAME
wait -- await process completion
SYNOPSIS
wait [pid]
DESCRIPTION
If invoked with no arguments, the wait utility waits until all existing child processes in the background have terminated.
Available operands:
pid If a pid operand is specified, and it is the process ID of a background child process that still exists, the wait utility waits until
that process has completed and consumes its status information, without consuming the status information of any other process.
If a pid operand is specified that is not the process ID of a child background process that still exists, wait exits without waiting
for any processes to complete.
The wait utility exits with one of the following values:
0 The wait utility was invoked with no operands and all of the existing background child processes have terminated, or the process
specified by the pid operand exited normally with 0 as its exit status.
>0 The specified process did not exist and its exit status information was not available, or the specified process existed or its exit
status information was available, and it terminated with a non-zero exit status.
If the specified process terminated abnormally due to the receipt of a signal, the exit status information of wait contains that termination
status as well.
STANDARDS
The wait command is expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') compatible.
