I couldn't remember an exact clip, but many of the ones you posted jogged my memory and became familiar again. <br /><br />My mom used to lay out my favorite blanket in front of the TV with a bowl of apple and orange slices so that I could watch Sesame Street and The Polk-a-Dot Door. I can't describe the feeling that gave me...it sounds silly, but it is one of my childhood memories that made me want to be a stay at home mom and provide those same feelings for my own kids. And Sesame Street was all a part of it.<br /><br />I do remember that Snuffallupagus(?sp) was my favorite character and it was where I learned to count in Spanish.Richard & Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03948731851516592946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-868710073251050332.post-56463613460091047492011-02-21T08:00:46.940-07:002011-02-21T08:00:46.940-07:00This brought back a lot of great memories!

I remember when Mr. Hooper died, too. And I think my Mom still has the Fisher Price Sesame Street building in her toy closet in the basement.

I posted this clip to my facebook last year...after becoming absolutely giddy that I was able to think of the words to describe it to find it on YouTube, so that I could share it with my kids. The only thing I remembered about it was that it was a counting song and that the chef fell down with whatever the featured number of desserts at the end. It really is my favorite Sesame clip of all time. I hope you like it too!<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wxHeWaXa_ICarrie Stuarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323016099139441976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-868710073251050332.post-14873333520838740272011-02-21T06:38:12.631-07:002011-02-21T06:38:12.631-07:00I love Sesame Street!

My favorites (no time right now to find links, if they exist) are these sequences: a little boy gets help making a stool out of a piece of a tree, kids make fruit salad, and some claymation type figures play outside after it rains.<br /><br />Within the last couple of years a book has been published that tells the history of the show. I've been meaning to read it.<br /><br />I love that my kids and I can both enjoy this tradition.mephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03074153090546740903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-868710073251050332.post-65184076656482651642011-02-21T00:44:52.189-07:002011-02-21T00:44:52.189-07:00This was a fun trip down memory lane!
