Mister Rogers' Neighborhood was a groundbreaking children's television series that featured an amiable, low-key host named Fred Rogers. The show combined live action sequences with visits to an imaginary land populated by both humans and puppets. For decades, Mister Rogers addressed important issues for children, such as divorce, bullying, and growing up in a direct but compassionate way. Many viewers of public television have fond memories of watching Mister Rogers at school or at home.

The Mister Rogers show, and its successor Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, has spawned a number of educational toys and other materials. We have created a shortlist of toys inspired by the series, and we believe they will appeal to both adults and children who have fond memories of both shows.
