Mr. Dressup

This was a cool show. I use to watch it all the time when I was younger. It's a really good show for children. The puppets were neat too. It They need to make more shows like this for children. If you ever see a rerun of this show I recommend your kids watching this show. It's a great show for kids.

Right now even in my teen years, I remember those precious toddler years when I was still learning my abcs. Every morning I would watch Mr. Dressup with my friends and everytime we watched it, it was like a magical spell was put over us. We watched quietly without speaking a word and I think I learned from this show more than any other kids show I've ever seen. When I get a holiday and watch the present children's programs, I see shows that do not benefit the children's learning in any way. The shows are meant for entertainment and I found a small increase of violence in the shows. But even if they stopped filming Mr. Dressup, it is still broadcast on TV and his kind and loving spirit is still greatly appreciated in Canadian children's television.

And as for Mr. Dressup, thank you for all those wonderful years of all those crafts, songs and stories. I loved this show even more than Sesame Street or any other show in my early years.

When I was a wee lass living in the sunny tropical city of Ottawa Canada, I waited until 9:30 in the morning with bated breath. You see that was the time that Mr Dressup aired. He was always there with a new story or a new idea, or just all around fun. It inspired me to be imaginative. It inspired me to be creative and not just plod through life. It taught me that you can make up your own friends and have them live in trees. It taught me everything.

I will miss him very much. Everyone in Canada, who grew up with a TV will. I am glad that CBC still shows it, so I can hopefully show my Children this show.

RIP Mr Dressup.

Children nowadays don't have good shows like this anymore. I still wonder why?

Shows like this have proven to be successful so why not continue the trend?

Mr dressup is the greatest guy I know. when he died in 2001, I may not have been crying on the outside, but on the inside, i was bawling like a 3 year old.

So, Mr. dressup is your average neighbor who loves children (And not in the way we automatically assume today) he lives in a house, and he knows tons of people, including puppets, children, and other people. He usually invites them over (or they just pop up in his house) and they make crafts, dress up in costumes from the tickle trunk, or sing. and even sometimes watch a short video that was filmed in the 70's. all in all, Mr dressup ends the show with the legendary line, "till next time, bye-bye, from, whoever is with him, and me, Mr. dressup! bye. then we get to hear a jaunty piano tune which fills any Canadian with joy.
