    I’m 63 and grew up watching these shows. I moved away from Cleveland well over half a century, but I could sing the Mr. Jingeling song... except we always sang “Mr. Jingeling, he’s a dingaling”. Thanks so much for the journey through yesteryear.

      I'm 63, so you also probably grew up on Hoolihan, Big Chuck & Lil John, and the Ghoul. Even though I was a little older I would watch Superhost because of the monster movies. I also watched Barnaby and Woodrow.

    I saw "Jungle Larry" and "Captain Penny" at Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky, Ohio. I was thrilled to see them in person, after watching them on T.V. Miss Barbara, hostess of "Romper Room", Earle Keyes, aka "Mr. Jingleling" a jolly elf, Woodrow the Woodsman, Franz the Toymaker, and all the Cleveland children shows were well written, well presented, and very entertaining and fun. Thanks to all involved in any way with these wonderful shows. They don't make them like that anymore!

    When I was little we went to meet Captain Penny at Kenny King's! I also remember Barnaby (and Long John the Invisible Parrot) and Ghoulardi! Captain Penny used to tell us not to imitate the Three Stooges, and always said "You can fool some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool Mom." Jungle Larry was like an early Steve Irwin :D. And I worked with Earl Keyes (Mr Jingling) circa 1979 at CWRU!

      When the show was being formed, they weren't sure of a name for a railroad man so they came up with "Captain" at the last minute. By the time they figured out maybe "Engineer" or "Conductor" might have worked it was too late to change it so "Captain" stuck.

    Jungle Larry had a display of animals at Chippewa Lake Park during the summer, and a friend of mine found someones trained march hawk in a tree, I took it home and made a large wire mesh cage for it, and eventually gave it to Jungle Larry for his display, I would take live sparrows for the hawk to eat, which freaked out the kids at the park as they watched the hawk rip apart the sparrows.
