As a nonverbal autistic kid my dad showing me this in 2002 was so important. Seeing another kid who didn't talk, but communicated with a dragon inspired me to communicate with haunted house employees who also quelled my fears. Than you dad, blessed be your memory.

Reminds me of what Kowl told She-Ra in the 80s cartoon: "The only REAL failure is to not try"

my dad showed me this as a kid. he is an alcoholic and narcissist who abused me my entire childhood. i remember the good parts of my dad and this cartoon brings it all back to me. my dad is creative and intelligent and funny. it hurts to remember the good pieces of my dad while knowing how much pain he’s caused me. i am now no contact with him and although i know it’s for the better it still hurts remembering how much of a wonderful dad he could be. i used to look up to him like god. now i find myself wishing for him to be different. it hurts. watching this hurts. i miss who i thought was my dad all those years ago.

22:12 "....unless absolutely necessary." I didn't understand that line when I was a kid, but, I think it means that at different points "Puff" comes back into our lives to remind us how to be brave and strong when we need him most.

This. I heard the song multiple times since watching this as a very small kid (too young to even understand the full weight) and would remember this movie, but only vaguely. I never sought it out until today. I’m currently learning how to stop letting fear control me, now 21 and escaping/overcoming a lot of adversity. Today couldn’t have been a better day for me to sit down and watch it again for the first time since I was little. Saw it through a completely different lens- exactly when I needed to.

I'm so glad my mom showed me this when I was little even though it was reeeealy old compared to what most kids were watching, the legacy must never die!

Puff gives off the impression that he's a great psychiatrist. Even though he's not afraid to tell it how it is and acknowledges the negative parts of the world, he's still relatively optimistic and encouraging. Also, he even has a human side that shows during his depression of the sorry state of his land. Overall, he's a great character!

We were so excited as we watched the “Puff The Magic Dragon” movie on this new piece of technology that made its way into our living room. I will always remember this movie!

I was 32 when this came out. I grow up with the song. Kids care less if the sound is off or the writing is not perfect. Too many kids have grown up entirely too fast. Look at this with a youngster by your side and see through their eyes. Cut the umbilical cord to your phones and electronics and go out and play football with family till the bird graces the table and then be thankful you have family no matter how big or small.

Still watching in 2019.. Reminds me so much of my childhood.. Now my kids love puff

This is a tale of conquering childhood anxiety...💗

this was my altime favorite thing to watch when i was little.

I had lung problems as a child and I would sit in front of our little television hooked up to an air pump watching this over and over again. Thankyou for distracting me and making my world so much more colorful. God bless.

Dude, i used to sit and watch this and do my nebulizer treatments when i was a kid. I remember the sound, the smoke and the taste still, and here we are 20+ years later....

I was obsessed with this movie as a child and had bought my kids watch it and always watch it when I’m down… I’m 36 years old it was my fav movie as a child now I have a five year old boy on the spectrum and a 15 year old girl not on the spectrum To me this reminds me exactly of autism but also it reminds me of this journey of life I’ve been on perhaps it relates to Spiritual awakening and autism I have a feeling that anyone on the spectrum has a great deal of spiritual depth And my five-year-old son I see so much amazing gifts they are not explainable I think he acted activated some sort of awakening within myself but who knows I think it also has to do with perspective very much

TOGETHER THEY WOULD TRAVEL, IN A BOAT WITH BILLOWED SAILS JACKIE KEPT A LOOKOUT PERCHED ON PUFF'S GIGANTIC TAIL

My mom would play this for me whenever I was sad or sick and somehow it always made me better. Just today I was suddenly singing one of the songs to this and asked my friend if she remembered it she did and we ended up watching this and singing along to all the songs. Neither of us remember it being so short and meaningful as it was.

I couldn't get through ten seconds of this without crying.

One of the brightest parts of my childhood. When things get dark and scary in my head, I relax myself with puff

I love this when I was a toddler I have memories of my mom making me lunch with pb&j and fruits which she would make pictures of like boats and houses. Me and my 3 siblings would watch this over and over. Thank you for posting this. Haven’t watched this fully in 8 years

Tee hee let’s go back even though we’re grown we can wear diapers and run around the table like we used to! “Puff the magic draaaaagon!” Well sing as we run around while our mothers make our food.

Same here. But in the end I learned that not caring surprisingly gave me the confidence to endure it and I ended up making friends (also another shocker.) Although it got so much better in my adult years, had I known this sooner in my childhood (like elementary school), I would've stopped caring then. LOL!

One of the many wonderful childhood classic screenplays penned by Romeo Muller Jr. He worked primarily with Rankin & Bass, writing the scripts to most of their stop-motion Christmas specials (most famously Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman), as well as adapting J.R.R. Tolkein's The Hobbit book for their 1977 animated TV movie adaptation, the Return of the King for the animated adaptation of the same, 1982's The Flight of the Dragons, and a couple episodes of classic animated TV series like Thundercats and the Jackson 5ive.

Did they intend for this to be about autism? Because speaking as someone on the spectrum, this hits the nail on the head.

Yeah, I know right! I've never been officially diagnosed but several online tests place me there and I had a therapist tell me I showed signs of autism. I'm often completely unable to understand peoples emotions, I don't understand subtlety, and sometimes accidentally offend without even knowing how.

had to be 5 when I first seen this and cried every time

I'm just a cartoon guy that loves old cartoons and music 🎶 this is a favorite song from Peter, Paul and Mary and Burgess Meredith was perfect for this iconic role

The last time me or any of my siblings are cousins saw this little movie was when we were kids with her grandparents back in the late '90s! That's brought back so many memories of when we used to hang out with them a lot and had nothing but happy memories! Just like many other young kids during the good old days, watching this helped me go from being very scared and shy to now very outgoing and courageous!

This whole video makes me cry. My mom used to sing the song with me when I was little and now she doesn't have any time to spend with us since she's gone back to school. I miss the time we used to spend together

It's been a year or so since you posted this, but your mom is very brave going off on her own journey. It's not an easy thing to do. I hope that whatever story you have had since you posted will have a happy ending

Childhood memories at their best. I hated how none of the other kids my age enjoyed this.

I always thought I was more or less the only one who saw it, but after reading through these comments, It proves that wrong and proves what you just said right.

Watching this as a kid was so magical. I’m looking back on this now and it’s the most amazing sense of nostalgia ever. I’m so glad my dad showed me this as a kid, even though it’s an old show. I’m a teenager now with so much life to go through still, but I’m so glad I have things like this to look back on and remember.

To watch this movie now from when I was kid is amazing.I just recently bought a bearded dragon and it reminded me of this movie and a childhood before my Mom and Dad separated. I named my dragon Puff.

When I was a kid, I identified as this little boy. I was always sad and missed my dad. He was my hero, and I rarely saw him. My parents divorced, and I always felt like a bother to everyone. I daydreamed a lot, and couldn't focus in school. I was a mess as a kid, but I was just supposed to suck it up. I never really processed any of those feelings. Just became dissociative and afraid of everything and everyone leaving me.

I'm so lucky to have grown up with this, even if it was made for a different generation it's still amazing

As a child I watched this over something like 1000 times. I can recite it by route to this day. Im 40 now.

when i was in 1st grade our music teacher let us sing the intro to this song of the book, eventually we watched this. good times and i’m happy i still remember this :)

Haven’t seen this since I was a little kid, but it still resonates. Especially now. Thanks for the upload.

It still holds such power. I'm glad I re-watched it again. Time to take the next step forward. Thanks Puff.

Thank you so much for putting this on here man I remember watching this as a kid! This was great to able to watch it again!🙌🏾

Like everyone in my generation, I knew the song since I was a wee child. This movie was such fun to watch, even though by the I was 17. Heck, even in college, we enjoyed watching.

I remember first watching this cartoon on my childhood playmate neighbor's Sony Betamax player when i was around 9 years old (1988) and this is one of those cartoons that had hit me a lot in an emotional sense, that i nearly tear up, especially on the final part of the scene when Puff has started to part ways with Jackie Draper and 34 years later after first seeing this cartoon just as i thought that me being a 43 year old fully grown adult man has absolutely thought that i have fully outgrown childhood stuff like this then i turned up to be terribly wrong, upon stumbling here on KZread watching this cartoon again since 1988, the cartoon still hits me emotionally and the thing is that i had discerned and ponder the significant theme conveyed by this cartoon as an adult more than ever, the same childhood experience and impact that i had felt upon stumbling and seeing cartoon and fantasy stuff like "The Last Unicorn", "The Land Before Time"(especially the part when Littlefoot's mother has been killed by the T-Rex villain Sharptooth dramatically turning Littlefoot into an orphan), "Neverending Story", "Kimba the White Lion" anime and "The Iron Giant" (although that movie came out and had watched it during my late teenage / adolescent year), it has somewhat shows that no matter how refined and matured we are as we age there will always be a portion (even a small or minimal portion) of our innocent, joyful, loving and optimistic childhood that will remain intact, things that even than when we progress and grow / mature by age parts of our childhood will remain in tact in our hearts and memories like a precious treasure trove, cartoons like this are the ones that constantly reminding us of such.

Thankyou so much for this upload. Im a kid of the 00s but my 78 born mother showed me this when i was very young. Holds an important place in my heart. Cartoons just arent the same anymore. Crazy nostalgia

I used to watch this film on repeat when I was a wee lad. Damn, only a teenager and I wish I was younger again.

funny how time just totally makes you appreciate the small things. i watched this growing up and loved it.
