Sesame Street (1969– )
10/10
Back when tolerance meant that everyone was respected

Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, the Count. All of these are loved childhood memories founded in Sesame Street. Of course you still see Kermit, Miss Piggy and the Muppets on the screen today, but Sesame Street has a unique quality all of it's own. It has its own culture and street family and is great for pre-schoolers because it teaches key elements of phonics, counting and educational assets while providing children with a whole new world to explore and get to know. Yes, it does bring out some reality points of life but everything always gets resolved on the show and ends well and positively. This type of education for children teaches them to overcome cultural barriers and realize that life is diverse but all areas of life need to be respected, for example Oscar the Grouch.

Sesame Street was produced by Joan Ganz Cooney and Lloyd Morrisett. The show has won more awards than any other kids show on television. Sesame Street has won 153 Emmys and 8 Grammys. Jim Henson's Muppets are extraordinary and unique and original. Originality is encouraged in Sesame Street and the hosts are upbeat as well as fun and educational. Sesame Street is a valuable asset for children to be highly entertained while learning. Sesame Street will go down in history and is definitely a family treasure.

How many of you are like me, and if you look back at your life when you were very young, you don't remember what you learned in school, but you do remember watching Sesame Street?
