I just love this show. It's a timeless classic that kids have enjoyed for generations. Each show teaches kids valuable lessons about emotions, acceptance, and education. I also love how Mr. Rogers has always stood up for children, and fought to make his show available to everyone. With Mr. Rogers, it's always a beautiful day in the neighborhood. It's been fifty great years, and I'm sure he will continue to entertain kids for many years to come.
