Awww Monday: Fun Facts with Rocky

 Hostess Sandee at Comedy Plus 

Thank you

  



Dear Auntie HiC,


Did you know Kermit the Frog turned 70 years old this year?




Kermit was created in 1955 and was  originally performed by Jim Henson. 
Henson created the original Kermit by using an old green coat belonging to his mother and two ping pong balls.   Below is the photo of the original Kermit.


Henson described Kermit as an extension of his own personality, characterizing him as “easy going, likable, sometimes a wiseguy, with wry intelligence.”

Kermit’s generally calm but sometimes frazzled personality makes him very relatable for children as they navigate their own feelings and experiences.

Kermit’s iconic line, “It’s not easy being green”, is a metaphor for the challenges in life, and teaches children to embrace who they are, even when things are difficult. 

Kermit even has his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame! 




As Miss Piggy would say, “Happy Birthday, Kermie”!




Enjoy this song that Kermit sang at Henson’s funeral. 


😉




❤️ Rocky

Dearest Rocky Auntie HiC did not know how Kermit was created or the facts about his purrsonality. Favorite Sissy of Angel Madi, dearly loved Kermit and Miss Piggy.  She knew the song by heart.   I think she had hand motions she did..
maybe she learned them on the show or created them but they were precious.
I love this simple song, music and  powerful message.

Lovingly Auntie HiC
