A New Tradition: The Cinnamon Bear

Submitted by Lynn on Fri, 12/01/2006 - 3:45pm.

I have been meaning to do this since forever:

From now until Christmas, I'll be posting an episode a day of the Cinnamon Bear. Ask your mom (or grandma) and they'll remember listening to this old-time radio show every year at holiday time. It was originally broadcast in 1937. Because there are 26 episodes, I'll give you three today to catch up! I shoulda started earlier! Next year I will.

Episode 1: Paddy O'Cinnamon

Episode 2: Weary Willy

Episode 3: The Crazy Quilt Dragon

Each is 15 minutes long. To save each episode to your computer, with a Mac ctrl-click the link and choose "save as...", with Windows I think it's a left-click? whichever isn't the usual way you click with a multi-button mouse. This will be the first year I've actually remembered to get these files and play them for the girls, so I'm excited. Smiling

My girls listened to the first three this morning! I have only heard bits and pieces -- they are so fabulously old-fashioned. DD7 in particular has gotten interested -- at first DD3 was listening and DD7 was like, oh, no thanks. But she could hear it from the other room and soon came in and listened to the 1st and then the next 2 before I told her we'd have to stop.
