My boys really enjoy their K’NEX, so when I heard that Sesame Street and K’NEX were teaming up to create pre-school-friendly K’NEX Sesame Street building sets for the little ones, I was super excited. My tiny builders have a blast building and creating Elmo - one of their favorite Sesame Street friends.
There are several character sets from which to choose, and each building set is filled with colorful, chunky Kid K’nex rods, connectors and blocks. Each set also includes engaging and interactive educational content such as tips for parents and fun activity cards for kids.
Would you like to win a K’NEX Sesame Street Canister Building Set for your little tyke?
Here’s what you have to do:
- Leave me a comment with your favorite Sesame Street memory, before 9pm (pacific) on October 24th.
- For an extra entry in the random drawing, feel free to subscribe to my blog feed. You must remain a subscriber at least through the duration of this contest to qualify for a second entry. Make sure you leave me a separate comment saying you subscribed.
- A lucky commenter, chosen at random, will win the K’NEX Sesame Street Cannister Building Set. The winner will be notified via email, so make sure you leave a valid email address in your comment.
Good luck!
This giveaway is now closed. The winner will be notified soon!

I think my favorite memory of Sesame Street is when they had a child with a wheelchair on the show. I had never seen anyone in a wheelchair and it was quite a learning experience (outside the show with my mom).

I adored sesame street growing up. We had the Sesame Street Christmas and watched it every year. We lost the tape, though, and I recall, after having my first, finding it on Amazon.com and ordering it. Sitting down and watching MY favorite video from childhood with MY child brought me to tears. Seriously lost it. And each time I watch it with all of my children and explain to them how it was mommy’s favorite when she was a kid, it not only brings me back to being a kid myself, but brings me back to the moment I first showed it to my first child, and yup, get teary every time.

There was a song on their that was a parody of Material Girl by Madonna, I watched sesame street everyday for years even though I felt I was too old, hoping to see it again. I never did. I aso was terrified of the Yip yips (yip yip uh huh uh huh) now I think its hilarious

Wow! Do I have to pick just one favorite memory about Sesame Street?! I love Bert and Ernie, and one of my favorites of them is when Bert is sleeping and Ernie wakes him up to let him know that he can’t sleep. So, Bert tells him to count sheep. Ernie counts sheep, but that’s too noisy. Then, he counts fire engines… as if that was supposed to be quieter — LOL! I forget how it ends up, but they both just crack me up.

Oh Oh Oh Oh this is easy for me!! My son is 9 years old and loves elmo! He loves elmo so very much that I stood outside for over 17 hours in the cold to get him a TMX elmo when they first came out. Everyone of cource thought I was totally crazy! This past year our son got to meet elmo which was extra special as he got to actully “feel” a life size Elmo! He can not see so using his hands to feel is a big thing. He smiled ear to ear and really enjoyed being able to hear and feel elmo when we took him to the concert. It was GREAT!! If I win I will save this for Christmas for him. Thanks for the awsome contest!
BTW here is a photo of him with some of his Elmos!

I have always loved Sesame street. One of my favorite memories is when Grover is a waiter in a restaurant. He keeps goofing up the customer’s order in his funny Grover way. Great show! I miss Jim Henson. He was a genius.

I grew up watching Sesame Street as kid and my favorite memories are the ones I have now watching Sesame Street with my two girls. Watching them watch the show and smiling and singing along has got to be my favorite memories. Thanks so much for a fantastic giveaway, my girls would love to play with this Knex set.

I remember watching sesame street when I was a kid. One time I was watching the honkers (the guys that bop their noses and honk) and they were going on and on honking a song. Then, right when there was a pause, a car right outside the window just–honked. It was perfect timing.

My favorite memory was when my mom took my sister and I to Seasame Place when we were little. It was so much fun seeing all the characters. It took forever to get there, but we didn’t want to leave. It was magically seeing the characters and Sesame in person that we had seen on tv.

My favorite Sesame Street moment is when Itzhak Perlman takes the stage slowly, gingerly managing his leg braces. He plays the violin beautifully. Then a young boy runs quickly up onto the stage, and plays his violin hesitantly, with great difficulty.
Itzhak says, “Some things are easy for me to do. Some things are hard for me to do.”
The boy says, “Some things are easy for me to do. Some things are hard for me to do.”
