The Magic Cottage was an American television program broadcast on the now defunct DuMont Television Network from 1949 to 1952. It was a children's program hosted by Pat Meikle and aired on weekday evenings from 6:30-7:00 PM. In each episode, Meikle would tell a story using her "magic chalkboard", from which colorful fairy-tale characters would appear.

Other cast members included Stuart Bradley and Don Hastings, who is perhaps best remembered as the Video Ranger on DuMont's popular children's series Captain Video.
