Put on his sweater and his shoes. He always came in singing. Then he would put down whatever he had in his hands on the stool, walk to the closet take off his coat, hang it up, and grab a sweater. Then he would walk back over, sit down, take off his dress shoes, and put on his sneakers. Who knew that song would last that amount of time!
74. Mr. Rogers passed away at the age of 74. He was just a few weeks away from having his 75th birthday. He was born on March 20, 1928. I was born in 1984, and I'm glad that I was able to grow up with him.
Swimming. I had to read an article for my college reading class about Mr. Rogers, and it said that everyday he would get up and go swimming. If I knew how to swim, I would probably do it too.
How people make things. Every time Mr. Rogers was curious about how something was made, he would contact Mr. McFeely, and Mr. McFeely would go find the video. Later on in the same show, or in another episode, he would bring the video. I remember one that he saw was "How People Make Toothbrushes"!
In the museum. Lady Elaine Fairchild lives in the museum. She was always causing trouble for everyone, and never wanted to make things easy. She and the king didn't get along too well.
Daniel Tiger. Daniel Tiger lived in the clock. Though if you look at the clock close enough, it doesn't have any hands. No need for applause from this clock. Daniel was cautious. When people would come in see him and they were dressed in costumes, he was afraid, because he didn't know who they were. The king's niece, Lady Aberlin, was close to Daniel.
Friday, Saturday, and Tuesday. The king was King Friday the thirteenth. Although on the castle if you paid close attention, the thirteenth was written as XIII. That's 13 in Roman numerals. The queen was Sarah Saturday. Her last name was told one time, but you had to be paying special attention to hear it. Their son's name was Prince Tuesday. His name was said a lot.
