The World of Sesame Street

It's Friday and I'm traveling down memory lane.

The year was 1969 and a new educational show for children appeared on television: Sesame Street! oh...can you tell me how to get...how to get to Sesame Street?

It is still going strong and in 2009 the program will be 40 years old! PBS has created a wonderful website honoring this show. The website, The World According to Sesame Street, is worth a look!

"Sesame Street is aired in more than 120 countries around the world, and Sesame Workshop is developing co-productions in India, Afghanistan, Indonesia, Northern Ireland and Brazil."--from the website

Yes, I remember watching Sesame Street from just about the beginning. It was taped and broadcast in my elementary school as part of our lessons.
