I have so many favorites. My oldest son was born in 1972 and we sat so many mornings together laughing and learning. I made more Cookie Monster and Big Bird birthday cakes than I can remember. I was, and am passionate about that program!
Congratulations Ms. Ganz Cooney for a show that has influenced and supported so many…
My hope is that Sesame Street continues building it’s legacy to many more generations…
Thank you for the work you have done, and projects you’ve created that have so much value to so many worldwide through a little place called Sesame Street.
Enjoy,
