    Can't say enough how much these 2 ladies meant to me growing up in the early 70's here in New Jersey. I never missed a show... even by the time I was in high school I'd still make time for "The Garden". I even learned guitar and have worked with children in Kindergarten and Pre-K. Thanks to these 2 amazing women.

      How wonderful! Thank you for sharing. For some reason I also loved the Magic Garden. Last month I rented a cabin in the woods the views were amazing, I called the front my Magic Garden. I guess for me the show signified peace. Stay well & many blessings to ya.

    I loved watching them as a child. I especially loved the magic chest and the chuckle patch. I'm so greatful that I grew up in the 70's. I would hate to be growing up now with all the technology and being glued to a cell phone at a young age. When you watched TV in the 70's you either saw it or missed it. There was no way to record a show or watch something on demand and you had to walk over to the TV to turn the channel all 12 stations if that... And I wouldn't have changed it for a second kind of wish it was still like that. Better times and better TV programs.

    I really do love appreciate that WPIX has kept in touch with its history, and so thankful to see this interview from a couple of years ago. (now here comes the "but") BUT....I really don't know if all involved with this broadcast truly have an idea of how much these women mean to the history of that station, and to those of us kids who were lucky enough to watch "The Magic Garden" every day. Carole & Paula deserve so much more than a rushed 3 minute segment. And at the very least, they deserved to have their interview done in the studio where the mics work, and not part of some remote in a parking lot! As a kindergarten kid in 1972, it would mean the world to finally meet these amazing ladies.

      That’s great to hear. You familiar with Today’s special? Once I sorta outgrew the magic garden, I started watching Today’s special. My kids watch the magic garden and now are watching today’s special. Kids shows today just don’t hold a candle to shows like the magic garden. Loved romper room and pinwheel as well. Cheers Paula and Carole.

    The Magic Garden was literally one of my favorite memories from my childhood … WPIX 11 is about to celebrate 75 years and I would like to thank them for having such a gem of a show on back then. I would love to see this show some how some way make a reappearance in this modern time and of course having Carole and Paula being a part of that some how would be awesome. Thank you Carole Demas and Paula Janis for making my childhood a better one with your show 😊

    It reminds me of so many happy times with my Mom. She taught kindergarten for over 35 years and used to bring in her guitar to class and sing. How she had the courage and the passion to do that for her kids, I don’t know. I later subbed in her school and all the kids were so thrilled that I was her daughter. It’s like I was a celebrity’s kid. Although, I couldn’t come close to the magic she performed in the classroom, I tried. Love The Magic Garden and my wonderful Mom. ❤️
