The Sesame Street 40th anniversary is on Nov. 10th. Where has the time gone? (And how old does that make me - I have the 10th anniversary record album!)

Did you watch Sesame Street as a kid? What were your favorite characters, moments or memories? How do they compare to your kids faves?

We do not watch it because I am trying to limit TV exposure and we are just not home when it is on (she is in daycare).

I remeber many PBS shows including Sesame Street, The Electric Company, Zoom, and Mister Rogers - I liked them all! Elmo was not around when I was little and so I probably like grover and big bird.

Munch started with Sesame Street videos, since he was in daycare when it was broadcast when he was younger.  Since last year, though, he does watch it at home sometimes before school, and still loves the videos. 

My mom always said Sesame Street came along "just in time" for me and my brother.  I was only a few months old when it premiered, and my brother was 3.  (OK, now I've really dated myself too!)

I'm sure Sesame and The Electric Company had a lot to do with my being an early reader, ditto for Munch.

I think I learned a lot from it too - or at least had things like letters/sounds that I was already learning reinforced. It was definitely more educational than some of the other stuff I was watching like Tom & Jerry and Bugs Bunny.

Lucy is just very into it but I LOVED semas street as a child! I think my fave characters were Bert & Ernie & I remember dreaming of going to New York so that I could visit "Sesame Street". I think I figured I would actually see all of the characters running around, lol! Maybe Carolina will be into it :-)
