Happiness is … starting off today’s awesome giveaways with Snoopy and the Gang!! This one will be sure to put a smile on the face any Snoopy or Peanuts fan … or anyone who has fond memories of the saying, “Good Grief Charlie Brown”!
The Peanuts comic strip by Charles Schulz that began in 1950 and lasted for 50 years, went way beyond the newspaper. Snoopy has become one of the most beloved comic strip characters, along with Charlie Brown and the whole gang of Peanuts characters. Holiday TV Specials such as A Charlie Brown Christmas and It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown have become timeless classics, and must-see shows during holiday time, and they continue to delight each year.
Also- be sure to check out Peanuts.com … a wonderful collection of everything from Vintage Snoopy to current Peanuts Gang happenings. This comic strip that has warmed the hearts of so many children and grown ups alike, continues to do so today.
What more can you say about The Peanuts? I grew up watching the Charlie Brown holiday specials every year growing up, and it’s a tradition that I now get to share with my own kids. I love that they look forward to them as much as I do!
We watched the new Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown DVD last night as a family, and it was absolutely adorable. And the coffee table book is absolutely amazing. There are so many little surprised tucked in it — my kids have spent hours paging through it.

My favorite memories of Charlie Brown are when they used to run the holiday special when I was a kid! Back then, cartoons were not on all the time…..so it was a special treat to get to see a cartoon at night!

When I was a kid, it was a special treat to be able to watch Peanuts on TV with my Grandma. She always made a point to tell me that she would be watching whatever Peanuts special was on even if we couldn’t be together. Even though she’s gone now, I can’t help but smile when I see Peanuts on TV and think of her, watching somewhere.

Loved the FAQ page! I had no idea Charlie Brown’s Dad (or Charles Schultz’s) was a barber or that Charlie Brown had a girlfriend.

I love the Peanuts but I fell in love even more when I found out that Peanuts was the official comic of the US Army Signal Corp. Proud to be a Signal Vet!
