“Sunny day, sweepin’ the clouds away
On my way, to where the air is sweet
Can you tell me how to get… how to get to Sesame Street?”
Enjoy fun photos and images of Elmo, Abby Cadabby, Zoe, Cookie Monster, Oscar the Grouch toys and all your friends in the photo gallery, as they play games and learn together and we celebrate in pictures this iconic brand that has entertained and educated children for over forty-eight years.
Elmo
The lovable three-and-a half year old furry red monster with a contagious giggle is Elmo. Elmo lives with his mother Mae and his father Louie with a pet goldfish named Dorothy in an apartment on Sesame Street and is best friends with Abby Cadabby and Zoe. As the star of Elmo’s World and Elmo the Musical, little Elmo teaches children everything he knows about the world around him.
Abby Cadabby
The adorable three-year-old fairy-in-training that lives on Sesame Street is Abby Cadabby, with magical powers that allow her to pop in and out of thin air, float when she’s happy, and turn things into pumpkins. Abby’s name comes from the magic word Abracadabra and this little fairy is so amazed to learn to draw letters and count that she says her catchphrase, ‘That’s so magical!’ when she learns something new.
Zoe
The three year old orange monster is Zoe. Obsessed with ballet, Zoe loves to dance and often wears a pink tutu. Zoe has a pet rock named, Rocco, much to Elmo’s dismay and often travels around Sesame Street in a go-cart style car called the Zoemobile. Zoe’s best friends with Elmo and AbbyCadabby and often says the catchphrase ‘Don’t joke me!’
Cookie Monster
The blue furry monster with googly eyes that eats everything and anything is the Cookie Monster. Cookie Monster educates children about healthy eating habits and enjoys eating fruits and eggplant, but most of all he prefers to eat cookies and his favorite are chocolate chip cookies. With a mouth full of food, Cookie Monster often says ‘Me want cookie!’ ‘Me eat cookie!’ and ‘Om nom nom nom’.
Big Bird
The tall and friendly bright yellow canary that lives in a large nest behind the 123 Sesame Street brownstone is Big Bird. With many talents and the leading character of the children’s television series, Big Bird can sing, dance, draw, write poetry, roller skate, ice skate, and even ride a unicycle. Big Bird teaches children about life, the alphabet, and numbers, helping them to feel comfortable not knowing everything and encouraging them to learn, saying ‘Asking questions is a good way of finding things out!’.
Oscar the Grouch
Next to Big Bird, and living in a trash can, is the green furry monster, Oscar the Grouch. The grouch’s passion in life is trash and sings, ‘I Love Trash’. Just like all Grouches, Oscar’s mission in life is to be as miserable and grouchy as possible, grumpily greeting visitors and complaining that he wants to be left alone. Oscar has a pet worm, called Slimey and a girlfriend, also a Grouch, named Grundgetta.
