Newsweek recently published this story: How Sesame Street Changed the World. Sesame Street has been an amazing resource for families raising small children. I remember it when I was small and it was one of the programs we allowed our kids to watch on a regular basis.Who didn't want to grow up to work for the Children's Television Workshop? Who didn't want to clock-in with Kermit and Big Bird?
I wanted to write a response to the Newsweek article, citing the impact it has had on my kids' lives but find myself overwhelmed and almost choked-up by the impact this show has had. So I will just invite you to read it for yourself.
