Personality

Mary is cool, confident, and a bit sassy. She’s really high energy and she loves to dance big time. She has a mischievous side and may hatch a plan or two to get a laugh. She may get a little fussy from time to time. Let’s face it; she’s quite contrary. But she springs back quickly to her regular quirky self.- old www.mothergooseclub.com description

Mary is smart, cool and confident. Always ready for a new adventure, she loves driving in her car and inventing new songs for the club. - new www.mothergooseclub.com description

Sassy and opinionated, Mary always has a new idea and won’t rest until the club hears it. She’s a handy little girl, who loves showing off her green thumb in the garden or fixing up her car-Foothill Entertainment description.

Mary is the token nerd of the group. Intelligent, tomboyish, and quick as a whip, she can rhyme any two words she can think of. She is a gardener and spends lots of time with her flowers (hence the rhyme she is from) She loves nature-flora and fauna.

She hates change and mainly only likes things for how they are right now. She is very fussy about many things, like about what foods she eats. She doesn't like eating vegetables and instead prefers French fries and yogurt. She also loathes getting up very early.

She is quirky, energetic, and silly. She does things a little differently from her friends, but that is what makes her special. She loves playing sports. She is on the soccer team, and she is a horseback rider. And she also loves to do cartwheels, as seen in the theme song, and in Auld Lang Syne.

She serves as the brains of the group. She once helped Eep, who was struggling with math. She is a huge bookworm and loves to read. She also enjoys going to school. She is wise and insightful, but always ends up on the tail of her friends' crazy plans. Sometimes, she acts like she knows everything because she's insecure and doesn't want to be called dumb, but she does listen to all her friends' nuggets of information and their ideas.

She enjoys driving around in her toy car, and also loves playing with all her dolls, her sheep, and painting. She has been to Canada, Germany, Russia, Poland, and Hong Kong.
