About Mr. Rogers
Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood is an incredibly popular educational TV series that ran for 895 episodes after coming on the air in October 15, 1962. Starring Fred Rogers, the show held the record for the longest-running children’s television series until Sesame Street took the record in 2012. The show introduced puppets as characters in the “Neighborhood of Make-Believe” that gave it an air of imaginary charm.
Mister Rogers himself was seen wearing his trademark canvas sneakers and his customary red cardigan sweater always zippered up. Mister Rogers is ever so fond of his sweaters because his mother knitted all of them for him! All this gave the show its incredibly popular appeal and familiarity to children aged between the ages of 2-5 years and even beyond. The show won a Sylvania Award for the Best Children’s Show as well as a Peabody Award.
