“Be kind to each other, share what you have to share, and do remember your prayers”. A more simpler time back then

I love how they just talk normal, they don't dumb everything down or act all goody goody. Captain gets irritated at Moose for not trusting him with the carrots. :-) I grew up with this and loved it as a kid, am rewatching to see what went into my brain when I was 6--- I was in good hands!

I remember as a little boy loving and identifying with Bunny Rabbit because he was so quiet just like me.

I probably watched this episode the first time it was ever on! Yep, I'm an old geezer. :) But I used to LOVE Captain Kangaroo as a kid.

The Captain captivated me so very much when I was young. He still captivates me with some surreal humor and whacked-out displays and demonstrations as an adult!!! He was able to tap into a different kind of collective consciousness. He bridged a gap between being a kid and being an adult who could present something incredibly whacked that would still resonate with any others with an open mind! Bob Keeshan was a genius!

It was because of shows like this that all the kids on our street used to make up plays and put them on for all the mothers. We had so much fun with make believe!

Yes. Captain Kangaroo did help mom raise the kids. Sweet, innocent, fun & educational. Thank you Captain Kangaroo.

I love seeing this again. So sweet, so simple. No fast cutting, no special effects, no 'we're gonna teach you this today.'

He said it. Be kind to each other. Share what you have to share and do remember your prayers. That's how it was in the 50's and 60s. Good manners and kindness, honoring God and country. This is how he would often end his show. This was taught to us in school and on programs like Captain Kangaroo. We used to show respect to each other and God and country. It was taught and expected, like good manners. Not any more. We are violent brutal and selfish heathens. We honor and respect nothing and no one!

I'm Glad Mr.Captain Kangaroo 🦘 was apart of my Childhood memories of the 1960s and 1970s. Thank you Sir..RIP

It's weird I watched going up. I am now 66 and still have the theme song in my head. I loved this show growing.

Wow, 1968. I'm 4 years old at my grandmother's house playing with my cousins again with this coming on while eating our Kellog's multi pack cereal.

This takes me back when I was 5 eating cinnamon toast or my favorite cereal and watching The Captain and his friends on the old Zenith tv! Great childhood memories!!

I remembered pretending to be sick, so I can stay home from school and watch Captain Kangaroo. I only did that once, though:)

Loved Watching Captain Kangaroo every morning!!

I feel very fortunate that I got to see the Captain in person when I was six years old at the Philadelphia Academy of Music. I had an aisle seat and he came right down the aisle! I could have reached out and touched him, he was that close. Wonderful concert with him on stage with the Philadelphia Orchestra. Watched him on tv everyday.

As a kid, I looked forward to watching captain kangaroo, every morning!

And no second takes. It went out live. We were riveted to every second. I am 63.

Ah, good memories. I would have been seven or so when this aired. I don't remember that show in particular but that's the set I remember, and the way I remember all the characters looking. My favorite bit was always when moose would dump ping pong balls on the Captain. That was the epitome of humor to a 7 year old 😄

I'm sure the 13 yr old me barely paused on this of the 3 channels!! I vividly remember the even younger me regularly watching this show....makes my heartache when I see it now....what a magical time of my life.
