Well we were watching the Tipi Tales after I registered the section. I registered it because I though SAM the little girl looked like Dorty. (Those dark eyes, Ojibway face style and black hair make me think it was Dorty). Then the old man (great grandfather) looks like her brother (Fra....)
Can you name the family members from the photo. Haha..So we both laughted how much they looked alike. Especially when Granddad laughs with is hand over his mouth. Which Fra... does all the time.
So now when we are watching it, Dorty now has her whole family in there. Russell, the little boy she says looks like her brother Barry. Now all are there. It seems every character looks like someone. (sitter, brother.another brother... ha ha ha) But I must say the puppets do have the Ojibway character in the faces although the program is announced as " children's puppet series illustrates the seven sacred teachings of Aboriginal spirituality."
There is alway a big laugh between Dorty and I as we watch Sam and Russell sing their songs. We even have began to sing one when we are skiing. "When you are happy you laugh, when you are sad you Cry...etc) And now today, the program was complete broadcast in the language of the program. (cree or Ojibway)
So now I will attempt to e-mail the program site (APTN) or Tipi Tales to see if a translation of the actual language program can be e-mail to us. It would be great to know the english of the total Cree (or Ojibway) program.
