Where is the Kid in you?

I always have loved cartoons, but not all cartoons, I have my favourites

some of them include
Bugs Bunny,Daffy Duck,Woody Woodpecker and most other Looney Tunes even Baby Looney Tunes.
Popeye,Alladdin,Little Mermaid,Thundercats,Captain Planet,Fern Gully the Last Rainforest,Emperors New Groove,Madagascar.
Recently I have been watching Courage the cowardly Dog, the Grim Tales of the Reaper (I think that is the name),

All time favourite fairy tale would be Beauty and the Beast,The Prince and the pauper.

Does anyone remember the "Mole Story", I think that is the name,but I couldnt find it on the net. It was popular around 88-90.The beginning of each episode the mole flies off with an umbrella and it lands upside down in the water.
One of my favourite episode was when the mole finds some paints and colours every animal and everything in the forest and they scare a fox away.

What are your favourites and show us the kid in you

Good topic, especially for parents. Great parents have never lost their sense of wonder and remember what it was like to be a kid and can see the world through a child's eyes.

I remember loving the Flintstones, Thunderbirds, Spiderman.
I watch all the kids' movies once with them, even go to the big screen now and then (Cars, Finding Nemo, etc.).

Oh, I forgot about "Finding Nemo",I loved it.
Thanks Nk for reminding ....

Thats beautifully said, as long as we parents remember the kid in us, we will find things that we can enjoy with our children.

I love many of the early ones that you list above. I would also include Captain Kangaroo, Howdy Doody (dating myself here!), Johnny Qwest and the Jetson's. Since you have mentioned cartoons, I hope you don't mind my going into the comic book realm just a little bit. Some cartoons were also made into comic books. I am doing this because, when we are kids, cartoons and comic books can be an influence on the way that we, as children, act and think sometimes.

When I was in the fifth grade, I was hit by a car. I was riding on the back of a motorcycle with my uncle. The car hit me, not the motorcycle. We hit a curb and my uncle and I went flying. I flew over him.

As I went flying through the air over my uncle, I can remember thinking, "This is just what Superman fells like!!!!" My leg was broken by the car.

I also can remember a local program in the late afternoon called the Captain Ernie Show. On it were featured cartoons and guests such as school classes and scout troops. I was on it as part of a Cub Scout troop.

One of the segments to the show, was one of the many short movies of The Three Stooges. I remember The Three Stooges films being removed from the show because too many kids were starting to act out like The Three Stooges with doing such things as hitting others on the heads with hammers and sticking others with pins. I think that I remember someone from the show asking kids via television, not to act like The Three Stooges.

I loved Captain Kangaroo and Howdy Doody; the Roy Rogers Show; Kukla, Fran & Ollie; Looney Tunes (yes, with Roadrunner and that sad sack coyote who always bought Acme), Yogi Bear and Friends (Quick Draw McGraw and his side kick Baba Louie, along with Snagglepuss, Droopy the Dog), Heckle and Jeckle the crows, the old Bozo television program, any Foghorn Leghorn cartoon, Huckleberry Hound, Bugs Bunny, et. al.

A child of the 1950's. Great times. Now I canont find much of a decent cartoon except for my buddy SpongeBob. sighs.

I whoeheartedly agree about the Three Stooges shorts. They ruled the world!

Shy,
I love Spongebob too from the current ones going around....

Clough,
I used to love comics too,Dennis the Menace(I enjoy the comic strips more than the cartoon),The Phantom,Archies(Jughead was my fave),Asterix,Tintin.
I wasnt much of a superhero fan though, I hope you recovered well enough from the accident to realise the truth of superheroes

Has anyone read "The Adventures of Bob and Bobbett"(i think that is the name of a comic from the makers of Tintin)?

Recently my bro introduced me to Australian humour"The Far Side Gallery" and "Footrot Flats" (i think is the name).

I also used to be very much into the Archie comics! That went along equally with the Superman attraction.
