This is a picture of my littlest at Sesame Place.  This face summarizes their love for the characters!  The Justin Beiber of the toddler-preschool age! ;)

I LOVE all things Jim Henson.  No seriously…it’s kind of ridiculous.

The Muppets.  Labyrinth. The Dark Crystal. Tales from Muppetland…and most of all, Sesame Street.  Jim Henson made the idea come to life.  NO ONE could’ve done a better job.  

The show has been on for FORTY years! 118 Emmy awards?!  I CRY (from laughter and sentiment) whenever I see clips from my childhood.  One of my favorite conversations is discussing favorite or memorable Sesame Street clips.  

It still holds up.  My girls love it, too!  I watch.  Still fascinated.  Still hilarious.  Even as an adult!

It’s a WORLDWIDE thing.  It reaches kids.  My favorite is that it’s now airing in Afghanistan! Reaching a crowd of children recovering from a war!  There really is nothing like having a show that fosters a love of learning and comforts by sharing stories of other children like you.

What was/is YOUR favorite Sesame Street clip?
