Winky Dink and You was on Channel 2 (CBS) in NY but I don't know if it was a nationally syndicated show. The gimmick, if you call it that, was parents could purchase for their children a "kit" that contained a thin piece of plastic which stuck to the tv screen and the children could draw images that was on the program. The box came with the plastic sheet and the crayons and instructions.

The reason I remember that show from the early 50's is that ... "oh, no you little brat!" were the words I heard when I drew the figures but didn't have the plastic sheet. I guess I wasn't supposed to draw directly on the tv screen but neither Mom nor Dad had purchased the kit.

Oh, boy! these memories are gonna cause me to go back for additional therapy sessions. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winky_Dink_and_You

I vaguely remember Winky Dink and you, however, the section of Brooklyn I lived in didn't get all the channels. Snow and fuzz was a problem on all but channel 7.

Great thread Cassie!


Again - WOW

What was it about that show that just tugs at your heart. It has been off since the late 50's!

Simpler times, a yearning to go home again, The wisdom of our elders, delicious food cooking in the kitchen, problems that were always solvable, and an all over warm and fuzzy feeling, thats what lingers on in my mind from "I remember mama".

there ya go Gracie, I guess we really did need that sigh!
