Do You Remember...? Grandpa's Magical Toys (click to see Movie)


"Good Morning, Good Morning, and How Do You Do? Good Morning, Good Morning, I'm Fine How Are You?"
There are so many great movies that remind us of our childhood, but none better than Grandpa's Magical Toys. This movie is nothing less than a classic! I think if we made a secret favorite movie list, Grandpa's Magical Toys would be in our top 5. Who can forget classic characters like Punchinello, the Pretty Little Dutch Girl, Laddie and Lassie, the Muffin Man, The Sailor, and Cuckoo? And who wasn't deathly terrified of the large cookie Jar?
If you think about it, Grandpa's Magical Toys is the predecessor to another classic film: Toy Story. Leave it to the wonderful people at Wee Sing to come up with the idea of toys coming alive first. Have you ever thought that maybe our toys do come to life when we're not in our rooms? We'll really never know.
This movie introduced us to so many classic songs like "Farmer in the Dell," "A Sailor went to Sea Sea Sea," "Hambone," and of course, "Say Say Ol' Playmate." Let's all admit that none of us ever knew the actual words to that last song, so for all of your help:
Say Say Ol' Playmate, Come Out and Sing with me,
And Bring your Dollies Three, Climb up my Apple Tree,
Slide Down my Rain Barrel, Slide down my Cellar Door,
And we'll be jolly friend's, forever more!
What are your favorite GMT characters and moments? Please share with us!
