I love the parodies. There's not much better in life than "Pre-school the Musical". We just bought a house and decided to cut down our TV time by not getting tv reception. We miss it.

My favorite character was and is Grover. He is silly and clumsy and I can totally relate to him. That's probably why he was my favorite as a kid, because i could so relate to him. It's awesome that something that we grew up with with fun, great learning material can be shared with our little ones. Your blog is great and appreciate all the info. Thank you :)

I love Grover. He always seemed so comfortingly human to me -- he tries really hard, gets frustrated, and then dusts himself off and tries again.

Unknown said...

40 years! so glad to share the magic of sesame street with my kids.

RenaissanceMom said...

One of the things I remember vividly from my own viewing of Sesame Street as a kid was the "Ladybug Picnic" song (a counting song to 12). I could vividly remember the entire song and the animation too 25 years later. I also just love "Sing, Sing a Song". As for characters, I love the duo of Bert and Ernie. Gordon is a favorite of mine, too. Thanks as always for your excellent blog!

Rachel said...

It's hard to choose my favorite character! But my son's favorite is definitely Elmo.
