Take Part! Theme Song

[koach13]

THANK YOU!!! this show was such a huge part of my childhood, best trip down memory lane ever!

[osbely]

Did she sing "...what the fucks it all about"?

[unacorda00]

@0:20 "and if your family starts to wonder what the fuck it's all about!"

[Icyblackkat]

Just realized how fucked up some of these shows from my childhood were. Does explain a lot about me though.

[SeraSunshine777]

I loved this show back then! Especially the muppet-like thing made out of a margarine lid!

But seriously, when I finally realized that Lois and that kid were never REALLY in a space station on the Mooooon... I felt like a totally airhead :)

[joshster89]

Half the kids who watched this are now taking part in smoking weed

[silvertear]

holy shit. I wish I was a kid again. <3

[maryannkohl]

Thanks, Lois. Your original music is so upbeat and fun for kids to sing along.

[martibrae]

Loved this show!!! Always enjoyed when MaryAnn Kohl was on it doing art. Lois wrote all the music, I think. FUN!!

[starhealer1]

I use to love watching this show when it was on tv. Crazy Mr. Twister, the Magic Corner and the Mail corner were my 3 fav parts of the show

[Shanker420]

I loved your shows Lois, you and Herb helped shape my childhood without ever knowing! ;-)

[zarbar2]

I have to say, when she says "What the fuss is all about" I always think she's saying What the fuck... my mind isn't so little anymore.

[AWDracer]

@zarbar2 LMFAOOOOO I got that initial thought. 

[zarbar2]

1 person is a party pooper

[SasinineFlops]

OMG! I forgot about this and now it's all rushing back! Do you have more Take Part?

[MurphyWinbag]

I never liked this show as a kid and now I remember why. This intro is just annoying.

[MsAnnDee]

OMG...I have been trying to remember the name of this show for years to try and look it up on youtube. I LOVED this show. Used to be on everyday before I was in school. :) <3

[datalal624]

Wow...I loved watching this show. How could I have forgotten all about it?

Thanks for posting this to jog our memories! :p

[GlobalsoftPirka]

I used to love this show when I was a little kid...seeing it again is really strangely surreal. XD I used to wonder, when I was little, whether the puppets Les and Redusa were siblings or lovers. XD

[skanemermaid]

Take fart in the smell!

[katsujinken10]

om man! fucking right. I used to LOVE this show

[Beefmouth]

Sweet!

Take Part...... in the fun!

[4eyedshorty]

[MrPixelbully]

[psusquall]

shayne

[dubconcrete]

WHAT! my jaw dropped when I saw this! forgot all about watching this

[savantiflag]

@dubconcrete I literally jaw dropped because I always remembered this but I didn't know what it was called or if it even existed!!

[kristavictoria]

I used to LOVE this show as a kid

[djackulate]

one million time's better than nothing!!!!

[starhealer1]

I remember this show. I loved watching it, I never missed is when I was on.

[noelanigraham]

I use to know lois and herb but Mr.twister was one of my teachers at my high school loved seeing dressed up as mr.bumblebee man brings me back memories of my youth but most of all seeing an old teacher of mine

[rattlehead1999]

If Mr. Twister dressed as a bee to teach high school, with all the tough guy jocks, burnouts, snobby girls obsessed with popularity, he'd get beaten up. You prolly mean elementary school, or your making up stories ;)

[noelanigraham]

for your comment if you can get into the frank hurt secondary school class of 1996 yearbook you will see my Teacher in there and you will say I am Not making up stories

[rattlehead1999]

Im sure he was a teacher at your high school, but did he really dress up as the bee man? Did anyone recognize him from Take Part/ if you were in high school in 96, thats when i started too, then everyone there grew up in the same time as TP was on the air.

[noelanigraham]

pretty much we knew who he was and yes he did wear bee man costume at halloween as I rememeber he did wear other costumes too. Another thing a few kids that I was babysitting at the time Loved Mr.twister I rememeber going up to him and telling him that so and so loved the show and he went to his desk and brought out the tp picture and signed for the kids I babysat. did you go to the same school as me and you would also know his real name too but I am showing respect to my teacher/ Mr.Twister

[N37BU6]

NO F'ING WAY...

[vancouverkiz]

OMG i've been looking everywhere for this, and forgot the name, thanks so so much for posting 5 stars def.

[IrishEyes1989]

Omg the memories from childhood came flooding back as I watched this!! =D

I loved this show SO much!

[kosai19]

Brings back so many memories. Thanks for posting. :)

[Bishop098]

Well. That's something I didn't ever need to see again.

[Mikemc]

I loved watching the card guy

[dlmx13]

I LOVED THIS SHOW. I thought I would NEVER see it on here! You don't get anything like this nowadays - shows encouraging kids to be creative...

[Conn2286]

Wow i use to watch this good old canadian tv.

[fanofbrawl]

"What the fuck is this all about" 0:23 or so :)

[JolieAriane]

I used to watched this every day in kindergarten on YTV.

[oopsidroppedit]

Take part and Tele-a-tale town,

~* Sigh *~ Oh childhood

[DisneyAlexMojo]

Oh, "fuss". Sorry. I had to increase the volume. Still....... it sounds like 'fuck' at a lower volume given the way she sings it. What an ice queen she was. He looked like a pedo, too.

[DisneyAlexMojo]

lmfao @ :22 What the 'fun' or what the 'fuck'???????? Listen to it. It sounds like she's using a swear word. lol

[lookscudkill]

One from the last group of "retro" or simple children's program format.

[starhealer1]

I remember this show. It was one of my fav show's. I loved watching it, I couldn't get enough of it.

[MaliciousMal]

one of my most vivid memories of this show was watching the kitchen segment and learning how to make a tuna melt! haha thanks YTV!

[magnifique66]

ahhah i thought she said "what the fuck'

[marknetwork]

the woman that used to cook in her kitchen was hot

[Motavian]

HAHAHAHAHA! Total Ice queen though.

[joeytheamazing]

[meloveanna]

[xxadorexx]

I have been looking for this forever!..<3

[meloveanna]

[Arpeggiato]

Anyone know where I can find vids of Pam's Kitchen and the Recycle Cycle artist?

[wishingstar22]

[coolboysess]

Sorry for the negativity Lois lol. I appreciate you posting this very much. Brings back old memories.

[coolboysess]

Haha I remember I hated this show as a kid, the mail puppet used to creep me out. There was one skit on the show I remember liking though, it was the guy who used to make arts and crafts out of junk. Any clips of that lying around?

[typh01dmary]

Recycle MICHEAL! He was pure awesomeness.

[o0kittyfetus0o]

@coolboysess I used to be scared of the mail puppet too. What was his name? Marvin...Melvin...or something?

[jinxy00]

AH.

I've been searching for this. ;_;

Thank you for having it and posting.

[afficial83]

wow, thanks for uploading this. Brings back memories...

do you by any chance have the recycle cycle song, or the pams in the kitchen song?

[whaler3232]

This was a really great show for kids and parents. Really creative and fun and got me really hooked on magic tricks from 'Mark the Magician' (I think that was his name). Anyways, great memories thanks for posting!! Post some of the magic tricks, I forget them now!!!

[denelson83]

You got that right. His name is Mark Montreuil.

[Honeygirl911]

I remember making a puppet out of an old macaroni box from an idea on this show.

[wilkes85]

WHOOO!!! I used to love this show when I was a kid! I forgot all about this, but the memory was still somewhere in the back of my mind.

Great vintage C

[roxiem1]

I used to stay home from school and watch this show! This, and Camp Cariboo...I think I even sent them a letter.

[80sCartoonsRock]

I loved this show when I was a kid

[grandmasterc]

Marvin The Mailman FTW!

[lesliekwan80]

I used to love love love this show as a kid. I remember I got the shoe boxes, the cereal boxes, the margarine containers 'n all ... but I had no felt. :( So my puppets looked like crap.

[RioMadeira]

Something about Lois Walker always scared the living daylights out of me.

[loiswalker1]

Me too! Love, Lois

[KiloWah]

Back when there was actually good stuff on T.V.

[TheNilesEdge]
