CARTOONS are signs that one shouldn’t take life too seriously. Animated characters keep one childlike, peppy and injected with good humor.
Upon waking up, my husband and I like to immediately tune in to either Cartoon Network, the Disney Channel or Nickelodeon while we prepare for work. We start our day off with a little silliness and lots of good smiles. We like the humor of “The Fairly OddParents,” about a boy who has two fairy godparents. Sometimes we catch “Justice League,” “Little Einsteins” and “Ben 10.” Mornings are much lighter to manage when you’ve got company like that!
I suppose cartoons bring such joy to me because I still feel like a kid when I watch them. They remind me to look at life with a happier disposition, that it’s okay to be silly, and that hey, anything is possible — like having fairies for godparents.
Yoshi is one my favorite characters. He’s the dinosaur from the Mario Bros. game. I’m not too fond of reptiles, but his big nose, playful stance and big smile make me smile myself. My fondness for Yoshi has triggered me to collect Yoshi stuff! Donald Duck also makes me giggle, especially when he throws one of those tantrums. Akazukin Chacha is also a favorite because of her curious eyes and friendly demeanor. Yep, cartoons really make me smile.
Who’s your favorite cartoon character? Do you still watch cartoons! I hope you do!

Hi Toni! I think the love of cartoons run in our family. Ask Ninong (my papa) and he’ll still give you some new ones…like Bobby of King of the Hill. My siblings love him too. I like watching Spongebob, Fairly Odd Parents (too!), and the Backyardigans. But my favorites would be Happy Feet and Boo (Monsters Inc)
I agree, cartoons help you lighten up a bit. Somehow it finds that inner child in you that would always have hope, love and joy in your heart no matter what.

I love cartoons, from Tom & Jerry to the latest Manga/Anime. I look forward at the end of the day when I can watch them in the privacy of my room.
In the past, adults who watch them are frowned upon and unfortunately from my experience alone, misinterpreted as “childish” and “abnormal”. Now this is no longer the mode.
For me, this is the way to let, as the blogger said, the inner child come out. This also lighten up the day, even if you have a bad day in the office.

I think “Hey Arnold” is really for adults–it’s my favorite. And Cat-Dog is absolutely hilarious. Much better than the old show The Odd Couple. Monsters was great too. I hate to admit it, but yeah the Cartoon Network is a regular stop of mine even when headed for National Geographic or CSI or ANC. I don’t much understand Japanese anime though because it is so serious, like animated soap operas or something.

hey there! luv reading ur blog…it puts a smile to my heart and lips of course.
yeah, i luv watching cartoons — and like ur blog, it sure makes one light-hearted! am now travelling to diff parts of the world, and most often than not, they don’t have nickolodeon or the disney channel…but i make do with the local stations. I know watch Grossology — about a bro and sis who are whizkids and fight villains who are plain “gross”. Its funny and it reminded me how my bro and i fought over sooo many things while growing up — but in the end, and esp when u most need it — u would always have ur sibling by ur side!
