    I was an avid snoopy collector as a child, my favorite toy was a little red chair that snoopy sat in, I also recall reading snoopy in the red baron very often

  4. Melissa Cowley says

    It’s the great pumpkin Charlie Brown!! Watched it every halloween growing up.

  5. Rena says

    I love Lucy. One of my favorite quotes from her is, “If you think I’m cranky now, just wait until I’m 40.”

  9. Shari says

    Peanuts has always been a favorite of mine…….no matter how old I get!!!
    I am also a follower on facebook.

  11. Lisa says

    Two Christmases ago, we took our daughter to the ICE exhibit at Gaylord Oprymills in Nashville and the theme that year was Charlie Brown Christmas. I loved reliving my childhood memories of my favorite Christmas special seen “live and in person” like that. It was a great exhibit – even if my daughter cried because it was too cold! LOL

  14. Crystal says

    my favorite scene from charlie brown is when lucy wants to play football and when charlie brown goes to kick the ball she moves it and makes him fall!

  24. Laura S says

    Favorite memory is just waiting each Halloween and Christmas for the specials to be on.

  27. Laura S says

    FAQ – the sound of the teachers on the show were made from a trombone, with the use of a plunger as a mute

  29. Trista says

    Favorite memory…We have a Peanuts book that talks and my 2 year old has learned to use the term “good grief” just like Charlie Brown.

  30. Heather says

    My favorite scene is the Charlie Brown Christmas tree. My daughter loves these as much as I do. It’s great sharing them with her.

  40. Crystal says

    🙂 So many Peanut faves…. Linus in the A Charlie Brown Christmas when he explains what “Christmas is all about”- Jesus’s birth.

  41. Jessica F says

    My favorite peanuts memory is Lucy “holding” the football for Charlie Brown. hehe

    I remember watching the Charlie Brown Christmas and Halloween specials on TV, we always looked forward to them!

  46. dee V says

    I can’t believe that Charlie Browns Dad had a profession! lol It never occurred to me that he would or would not. Its interesting that CS made Charlie Browns dad a dentist like his own dad!

  47. Michelle Couch says

    When my oldest first sat thur the whole Christmas show . I love the Christmas show!!

  57. Elizabeth B says

    I have a lot of Peanuts favorites, but I always enjoy Snoopy pretending to be the flying Ace in the comic strip. 🙂

  58. L.A. Ward says

    My favorite memory is performing A Charlie Brown Christmas at school during the holiday festivities, and then watching it at home on TV with my siblings (year, after year, after year).

  61. Kelly Blaschke says

    I have always loved Peanuts, and my 17 year old daughter knows it, so she loves suprising me with them. My recent favorite memory though was giving my 3 year old nephew the stuffed Snoopy for Christmas. It went everywhere with him while they were visiting!

  78. Kim McCulley says

    My favorite is always Linus reciting Luke 2 in the Christmas special. Brings tears to my eyes every time!

  80. Colleen Pabarcus says

    I grew up watching Charlie Brown Christmas and now my two-year-old son LOVES Charlie Brown as well. I love the sweet look on his face as he watches Snoopy skate around on the ice.

  81. Dani Sue Peterson says

    I love Charlie Brown Christmas, specifically the end of the show when they focus on the true meaning of Christmas.

  84. Colleen Pabarcus says

    I also love it when Linus tells the Christmas story. Nothing like it! And you can’t get that on TV anymore, especially for kids.

  85. Beth Perona says

    I love “A Charlie Brown Christmas” and it’s a family tradition to watch it every year!

  89. Jennifer Hallier says

    One of my favorite memories is just being together as a family when I was a girl and we would always watch the holiday specials together! Also, love it with Pig Pen and the blanket, as now I have a daughter that is the same way!

  99. Ray says

    My favorite peanuts memory is easy, watching the Christmas special every year growing up…

    Oh wait, I still watch it every year. Along with the great pumpkin at halloween.

  101. Marie says

    My favorite memory is that my dad loved to watch the Peanuts specials (he would tell my stepmom that he was recording them for me but he was the one who watched them most)

  106. Beth says

    1) It has to be Charlie Brown’s Christmas. I loved watching it as a kid and now sharing it with my kids.
    2) I get your emails
    3) I already follow you on Facebook
    4) I also learned there is a Schulz museum in California.

  111. Kelly L says

    I love watching all of the holiday specials. It’s funny that whenever someone mumbles, a lot of people compare them to Charlie Brown’s teacher. I follow you on facebook. Thanks!

  114. Amanda Copus says

    My favorite memory is watching the Holiday Specials on the Holiday. It was always so cool to be with my entire family when I was a kid and now I get to carry on the tradition with my kids too!

  115. Dana says

    Watching Peanuts always reminds me of my Uncle David. He is the one who introduced me to Snoopy when I was a little girl.

  116. Jani Nelson says

    It’s a tradition for my family to watch A Charlie Brown Christmas. Gotta LOVE Charlie Brown’s Christmas Tree.

  121. Kimberli says

    My favorite Peanuts memory is watching all the different holiday specials growing up – my husband did the same so we are excited every year to watch them with our boys – I love that they’re still on tv every year!!

  126. Mary Anne says

    I love the time we spend as a family at Camp Snoopy! Or, now, Planet Snoopy! Watching my kids run up and hug Snoopy and the gang, makes me tear a little bit, thinking of my childhood watching, reading and cuddling with my own Snoopy. Happiness, I tell you….Happiness!

  129. Mary Anne says

    After reading the FAQs I had no idea that Charlie Brown’s dad was a barber! Interesting information! 🙂

  130. Mary says

    We are huge peanuts fans at our house. Linus and his blanket actually remind me of my son. Our greatest Peanuts memory is Linus’ speech during the Charlie Brown Christmas special. We have an ornament on our tree that does the speech and we can’t wait to get it out every year. We just smile we hear “Lights Please”

  131. Andie says

    Thank you for offering this promotion! My family are huge Peanuts fans!

    I didn’t realize that the two girls dancing in the Christmas special had names…This is the response from the website.

    Q. Who are the dancing girls featured in A Charlie Brown Christmas?
    A. The twin sisters named “Three” and “Four,” who are most commonly recognized as the bouncy dancing girls in A Charlie Brown Christmas, were characters from the daily PEANUTS in the 60’s. They had an Older Brother named “Five.” In the strips’ story line, their father names them with numbers in protest of society’s ever-growing trend of reducing human lives to statistics. Their last name is actually 95742 – the family’s zip code. Most have deduced that this was a bit of Mr. Schulz’s social commentary as to 1960’s activism. Each of the three characters was seldom seen after the early 70’s.

  154. Jennifer Mack says

    My favorite memory is watching “A Charlie Brown Christmas” every year. I love when Charlie Brown talks about the true meaning of Christmas. One of my favorite parts from the movie is when Charlie is upset that Snoopy entered the lights and display contest. Charlie says, “My own dog – gone commercial. I can’t stand it.”

  156. Brittney says

    We watch a Charlie Brown Christmas every year! Holidays just wouldn’t be the same without it!

  168. Natasha Dawson says

    I love snoopy. I had a friend who had a real beagle named snoopy and begged my mom to buy me a real snoopy too.

  171. Susan says

    Q. Does Charlie Brown have a girlfriend?
    A. Actually between 1990 and 1991, he did.

    He met Peggy Jean at summer camp. He was so enamored (and extremely nervous), that he introduced himself as Brownie Charles, the name by which she would know him until she moved away. Throughout their relationship, he was continually torn between Peggy Jean and his affection for the Little Red-Haired Girl.

  182. Carrie M. says

    My brother loved A Charlie Brown Christmas. Since he passed away, my sisters and I all wear our Charlie Brown Christmas shirts every Christmas eve when our families all get together. It makes us feel as though he is right there with us.

  192. Amy says

    My favorite Peanut memories are…the Charlie Brown Christmas show–I still love waatching it with my children every year and going to Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, CA to see Snoopy! 🙂

  193. Amy says

    I didn’t know Snoopy has siblings!:

    Q. Does Snoopy have any siblings? If so, names?
    A. Snoopy’s siblings from the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm are:
    * Spike – with the mustache, from a desert outside of Needles, CA
    * Belle – his only sister
    * Marbles – “the smart one”, a spotted beagle
    * Olaf – aka Ugly “Olaf”, a much fuller-bodied beagle
    * Andy – the fuzzy haired sibling

    🙂

  194. Debbie says

    Favorite Peanuts memory is Linus explaining the true meaning of Christmas in the Charlie Brown Christmas special.

  211. Christine N. says

    My favorite Peanut memory was always watching “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” every year growing up~!

  215. Brandi Carlisle says

    Q. What does Charlie Brown’s dad do for a living?
    A. He was a barber – just as Mr. Schulz’s own father was.

    Interesting I did not know this! Funny I often wondered where his parents were. My favorite peanuts memories are watching the Christmas Special with my kids. I am always so touched when I listen to the true meaning of Christmas speech that Linus gives. “And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the fields, keeping watch over their flocks by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the lord shone round about them, and they were so afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not, for behold, I bring unto you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you this day is born in the City of Bethlehem, a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; you shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel, a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and saying, ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on Earth peace, good will toward men'”. That’s what Christmas is all about, Charlie brown.” -Linus”

    My oldest is a HUGE Snoopy fan. She absolutely adores him we search all the time to find something fun to add to her collection. I follow you on FB and also have signed up for the bonus entries. Thank you and God Bless! -Brandi

  219. Jessica Webb says

    I call my middle daughter Charlie Brown because a while back she went to show me her high kick for cheerleading and when she did she was standing on a small carpet piece outside and just as she kicked the carpet slid out from under her causing her foot to go right up in the air. She landed flat on her back and after making sure she was okay I couldn’t help but laugh at how similar she looked to Charlie Brown with that football kick he always falls for!

  222. Jean says

    My daughter has been eating her cereal with a Snoopy spoon EVERY SINGLE morning since she was able to use a spoon on her own. Yesterday we took the kids to Worlds of Fun’s Planet Snoopy for the first time. You should have seen her face when she met Snoopy. It was like her beloved spoon came to life. It was awesome to see how happy she was. I will remember the look on her face for the rest of my life.

  224. Kindra O'Connell says
