Won’t You Be My Neighbor?
I have been, or can be if you click on a link and make a purchase, compensated via a cash payment, gift, or something else of value for writing this post. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
As I mentioned the other day, the boys and I visited the Louisiana Children’s Museum while we were down that way in early October.
The special exhibit we were excited to see was a traveling one for Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood.
We LOVE Mister Rogers. When we started homeschooling, watching Mr. Rogers was a post lunch activity. One disappointment for moving to Maryland was discovering that show was not on the local PBS station. (It is on up here in Alaska once a week and I’ve had the DVR record a few so we can introduce Little J to the show.)
As I want to keep this particular post focused just on that one exhibit, I’ll be posting the rest of our visit in a third post within the next few days.
My kids would love that! Especially my daughter. I’ve really tried to incorporate the programs I grew up watching into their lives and I loved Mr. Rogers.

Thanks for the visit and stumble, Jamie. Mr. Rogers was one special guy and I’m glad my boys have all enjoyed watching some of the episodes.
I loved Mr Rogers as a child too. I would of loved to have met him, he seemed like such a nice man.

Love Mr Rogers-watched him all the time as a kid. I will be your neighbor, but only if I get to feed the fish and change my sweater each time! :0)
