Sesame Street
Kindness is in the air.
Created by Lloyd Morrisett, Joan Ganz Cooney, Jim Henson
A foundational children's program built on unconditional warmth, playful pedagogy, and the deep comfort of a stable, welcoming community.
On a special inner city street, the inhabitants—human and muppet—teach preschoolers basic educational and social concepts using comedy, cartoons, games, and songs.
