Do you remember those little books from the Mr. Men and Little Miss Series? Mr. Happy, Little Miss Sunshine, and Mr. Messy were a few of my favorites. Well, just last week, The Cartoon Network has premeired a new animated sketch comedy series based on the books…“The Mr. Men Show.” The show includes 2 11-minute episodes featuring funny skits with slapstick comedy, dancing, and singing. My son and I loved watching a recent episode. I’m not sure who enjoyed it more. I found myself laughing out loud and remembering all of my favorite childhood books.

If you are a child of the ’70’s, you should definitely catch “The Mr. Men Show” on The Cartoon Network, Monday through Friday at 9am (ET). You can also catch up with some of the characters at http://www.mrmen.com and find some fun activities for your kids, including coloring pages.
