Who remembers this awesome cartoon we used to watch when we were kids?
“Bonne Nuit Les Petits” was the last thing my parents let me watch before ordering me off to bed when I was little. Time has changed – bedtime is no longer pre-news 8 pm these days. For those who don’t remember, the series portrayed two siblings: Nicolas and Pimprenelle who were visited by le Marchand de sable (the merchant of sand) just before bedtime as he told them moral stories before sprinkling sand over them as they went to bed.
Well, today’s Google Doodle makes me miss the simpler days of being a worry-less child.
Souvenirs,souvenirs….I belong to this generation who had little cartoons to watch,so ‘Bonne nuit les petits’was like a ritual we waited for every evening…in black and white!
