Free Printable Classic Disney Movie Coloring Pages

Remember those old Disney classics: The Love Bug, That Darn Cat, Herbie Rides Again, Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks and others? And how about the old full-length cartoons? Robin Hood, The Aristocats, 101 Dalmations, The Fox and the Hound. So many wonderful movies from '60s and early '70s.



The first movie I ever saw, at six, was when I lived on a remote Alaskan island with my mom. The "movie theater" was a church hall, folding chairs and a portable screen. The film was "Son of Flubber." Later when we returned to Michigan, mom and I would go to Saturday matinees. We could see a double feature, have popcorn, pop and candy for under $2 each.

Remember Trick or Treat For UNICEF? 1970s Kid Memories

I've talked to a gamut of kids from the 60s and 70s and most of us have happy Halloween.  Cool costumes (remember the cheap plastic boxed kind mom got for $2 at the grocery store?). And the candy--along with today's fare there were some treats that have disappeared in the passage of time: Slo Pokes, Sugar Babies, Marathon,  Choco-Lite, Razzles. Halloween parties were a blast too--bobbing for apples (no one worried about catching H1N1 then), costume parades and hay mazes--good times. My favorite part of trick-or-treat wasn't any of those things, fun as they were. It was getting to carry a little orange box to collect pennies for UNICEF. Do you remember 'trick-or-treat for UNICEF? You can still do it....
