For some reason this afternoon the Skinnamarink song came into my head. You know the one song by Sharon, Lois and Bram from back in the day. For some reason that I’m not going to understand it did, I was sing along in my head, Skinnamarinky dinky dink, shinnamarinky doo, and so on. So what did I do next, well I went to Twitter to ask if anyone else remembered them. The response was intense. I was recieving replies every 5 seconds, I couldn’t keep up.
Friends were singing along, reliving old memories. Then Brent broke out the Youtube videos of some of the old shows we all use to watch. Then the memories really started to come back. Sharon, Lois and Bram, The Polka Dotted Door, Today’s Special. Here are some of the videos.

It was nice to escape reality for a moment and relive some memories. I miss them. I also don’t think children’s shows today are anything like those ones.
What are some memories you have of tv shows from your childhood?
