This show was/is awesome. I know some put it down but it's better than video games and ipods stuck to one's ears and hands. I LOVED how the show was very instructionally easy for young ones. My kids watched it twice a day until they started school. Loved it. Hugs. tammy
as an adult,I enjoy watching it as well.it is just down right fun.
Oh my gosh, I am older than this program. Ugh! Blessings….
Sesame Street is great! If you haven't seen the Google page for today you should check it out. They have been paying tribute to Sesame Street and today's character is Cookie Monster. Pretty cute!
