Maggie Muggins was a Canadian children's radio and television series which began on-air live as a fifteen-minute program on CBC Radio on New Year's Day, 1947. The highly popular radio program engaged children's imaginations, with its continuing cast of unique animal puppets and human characters. Maggie Muggins moved to CBC Television to air between September 29, 1955, and June 27, 1962.
Maggie Muggins is a freckle-faced girl in a gingham dress, with her red hair pulled back in two long pigtails who had adventures with many human-like animals and her neighbour Mr. McGarrity, who constantly worked on his garden. Another key character was Fitzgerald Fieldmouse.
The original Maggie Muggins, who performed the role throughout its run on CBC Radio, was Beryl Braithwaite (later Beryl Hart), eldest daughter of the freelance writer and novelist Max Braithwaite. Beryl was ten years old when the series began. Maggie's signature sign-off was "I don't know what will happen tomorrow."
The television series was adapted from previous media including radio and print.
