I loved every episode but the ones that included his models always felt like a special treat.

Hi All,

This is a strange question, but I grew up with Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. I would always cry when he was on, and when the show was over. Never understood it & wonder if others would do the same. I'm hoping this goes as anonymous.

I was mucking about on youtube when I found a video of him( this was a couple days back) and I am amazed. This man is literally an angel. I cannot find anything bad about him. It seems he loved children, combated racism and was just a great guy. Apart from the fact I don't live in the US, WHY HAVENT I HEARD OF HIM?

A few months ago, I posted pictures of the Let's Talk About It pamphlets I received with a Mister Rogers' Neighborhood promotional packet from 1987. I couldn't find anything about them online and I didn't have a way of scanning them, so I copied the text onto a PDF.

I browsed through archives of the Mister Rogers website and found a few other pamphlets that were able to be ordered in bundles by childcare providers and parents in the early 2000s. 2 to 49 copies were 50¢ each, 50 copies were $20, and 100 copies were $35. The 1985 Family Communications order catalog I received with the promotional packet has a listing for 10 pamphlets. These were produced with grants from the Claude Worthington Benedum Foundation, the James Francis McCandless Charitable Trust, and The Lilly Endowment, Inc.

The only pamphlets I know of that I don't have are When Your Child Goes To The Hospital, When Your Child Goes To The Dentist, Talking With Families About Divorce, and When Your Child Has Cancer (which I think was written after 1985 because it wasn't shown in the catalog). I was able to access the first two pages of When Your Child Has Cancer via the Mister Rogers website and the first page of When Your Child Goes To The Dentist via a Family Communications order catalog, both of which I've included.

Here are the pamphlets: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tU2p6_10Q_6IQ59IwQzmPXkA8UmP8anA/view?usp=sharing

What’s the most detailed source of Fred sharing his theological views directly? I’ve seen clips of him sharing parts of it but not so much in depth, it’s just mainly between the lines. One of the 60 minutes videos encompasses some of it but maybe there’s more detail in his writing?

I just found this - what do y’all think?

Pluto TV has added Mr. Rogers' channel which now you can watch the show anytime!

I found the perfect little shelf for my Mr. Rogers figurines. I look at them every morning while getting ready for work and reflect on everything Fred has taught me.
