5. Romper Room was a children's tv show in the '60s and '70s

and possibly before and possibly after. There was this horrifying song about being a Do-Bee and not being a Don't-be. I never watched the show even when I was small, but happened to land on its channel once during the song. (Hey, cable wasn't around back then.) Like a traffic accident; you couldn't look away...

9. Here's a few pics...

Viewers were encouraged to show proper behavior by remembering:
"Do Be a 'Do Bee'. Don't Be a 'Don't -Bee'."

"I always do everything right.
I never do anything wrong.
I'm a Romper Room Do Bee;
A Do Bee all day long!"

8. I adored Romper Room

I remember being so disappointed every day when whats-er-name never said my name when she looked through the magic mirror.

Oprah said the same thing so I guess I'm in good company.

I've even told my kids "don't be a don't bee" and then had to explain where that came from. Hell, by then I had a hard time remembering exactly what that was all about.
