Being from the Midwest, I've never heard of "Fun at One." But Miss Mary Ellen just found the forum, and sent me an email.

Here's what she said:

Quote:
I just happened upon your site and saw some members asked about Fun at One. I was surprised and delighted to see your members recalling Fun at One which was an early children's TV program. I am the Miss Mary Ellen they asked about. I am very much alive and singing with the Verismo Opera company in Bergen County, New Jersey. My partner, Miss Eppie, lives not too far from me and we still see each other frequently as we are close friends.

I would be happy to join NABBW and will check how to go about it when I have some time. Mary Ellen Rohon

Oh, oh oh! this is wonderful! I spoke with Mary Ellen a few years back and I'm so glad she's around! What a lovely lady.

She told me a story about a man (then a child) who brought her a boxful of Christmas bells he and his children made each year which he learned how to make from the Fun At One show!

How exciting is this!!!!

I also am from NJ and remember Fun at One. Do you remember singing "Hi Mike, Hi Mike, I like to sing Hi Mike" as a microphone came down from the ceiling?

I remember the show well. I was a young boy at the time, "Fun At One" was my first favorite tv show and I eagerly awaited it each day. My Mom get me started watching it. When I started first grade, that was probably when I last saw it. Your post was from thirteen years ago,
but if you still know how I may contact Miss Mary Ellen or Miss Eppie, it would really be great.
