I have always loved Sesame Street! Grover of course was my favorite.
My daughter used to carry her little Elmo stuffed doll with her every where she went. I miss that…
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.
Here’s my email address for when I win.

The weirdest things stick out in my mind about Sesame Street and one of my favorite memories is when the man was carrying the birthday cake and would fall down the stairs. (Is that mean of me?)

I loved it when Big Bird would go LaLaLa….I remember as a kid walking around going LaLaLa. I also loved the episode of Sesame Street where Grover was showing NEAR…….FAR……NEAR……Far and waving his arms. Funny, when my husband I were dating we brought that scene into a conversation. Loved NEAR FAR

My favorite Sesame Street memory is when Big Bird use to come on and give the word of the day. My children use to just wait everyday for that word.

Waking up early to watch with my sister
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 loved all of the songs, especially the counting songs that had funky music, and Ladybugs picnic. Also, Kermit the Frog as a reporter! What a great show.

I used to love Oscar, I wanted him to have a show all about Oscar. Also I still watch PBS more than any other network.
I liked all the different characters and the new people they had on all the time.

Watching Kermit the frog give the news on Sesame Street.
When Ernie wouldn’t listen to Bert because he had a banana in his ear…
I have fond memories of running in every day from school and hearing SUnny Days sweeping the clouds away!

My fav memory is the first time i took my son to Sesame Place and he got to meet Big Bird in person.
I loved the count – and it was fun for me when my boys began to enjoy him too!
I can’t remember anything specific about the show other than I loved it and used to watch it every morning. Couldn’t wait for it to come on.

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.

When I was a kid and would be sick, Dad would set a little tv up in my room. I remember laying there and watching Sesame Street, Zoom and the Electric Company.
I got a Sesame Street dvd for my grand daughter.

i just loved seasme street. Mr. Hooper and Oscar and snuffie when he was still big birds imaginary friend.
I love it when Big Bird explained that a person can love many people in different ways, but that didn’t mean you were loved any less. Thanks! senekers(at)comcast(dot)net

My favorite memory is sitting on our living room floor with my little brother and giggling over Ernie and Bert and how Ernie always stressed poor Bert out so much !

I loved watching big bird as a kid.
I remember watching sesame street with my parents every night. We would sing the theme song together.
Who are the people in your neighborhood?”
Wow! I used to watch this with my 3 sisters all the time. We used to laugh at Grover. Grover is my dad’s name and we could not believe that the name existed – especially on Sesame Street –
I used to love “C is for Cookie” because my name also starts with C.
I remember watching it every morning.

My favorite is Ernie pulling pranks on Bert!
Ernie singing “I’d Like To Visit the Moon.”

By far my favorite memory is the Sesame Street theme song. I love singing it to my toddler. It is so catchy and always brings back such great childhood memories.
the count and his mystery number

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.

“Who are the people in your neighborhood?”
Thanks!!!

When Burt & Ernie came out of the closet.
There is a song that Sesame Street played that counts up to 20 while showing a ball rolling around. This song has been stuck in my head my whole life.
My son would love this!

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.
I remember my baby sister watching it every day.

My best memory about sesame street is dressing up as earnie for halloween when I was a little girl, it was funny and I was cute!lol
bliss319@hotmail.com
I remember my parents taking my sister and I to go see Sesame Street & Friends in concert as kids.
I guess it would be when I watched it with my first child. We watched it every day together. With later children, I wasn’t so diligent. vidomich(at)yahoo(dot)com
Favorite memory would be of Cookie Monster eating cookies up, or anything that started with the letter C or was circular.
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.”
I learned how to count to three in Japanese from Sesame Street — Ichi, Nee, San!
I loved those yip yip monsters too.. they were too funny!
