Sesame Street
9:30am Monday July 3

Join Big Bird, Oscar, Elmo, Bert, Cookie Monster, the Count, and many other characters during this new series of Sesame Street to learn the alphabet and to count with Count von Count, but most of all just have a good time.

The 47th series sees a reimagined Elmo’s World segment and a kindness curriculum relevant to today’s pre-schoolers.

Everyone’s favourite red monster starts in an updated, fun, and fresh version of “Elmo’s World”. In 25 five-minute instalments, lessons are taught through preschool relevant topics, live action films, and interacting thinking games such as matching, sorting and counting.

The introduction of the kindness curriculum aims to foster behaviours that can have significant outcomes throughout a child’s life. The kindness curriculum is woven throughout the new season, including a new “kindness cam” segment where kids, shown clips from the episode and live actions films depicting real children doing similar acts of kindness, point out the kindness moment, thus reinforcing learning moments through repetition.

As always, Sesame Street features a dazzling array of celebrities, including multiple Grammy nominated singer/songwriter Sia, R&B superstar Jason Derulo, Tony Award winning host of The Late Late Show James Corden, Grammy nominated pop star Tori Kelly, action star of the Avengers series Anthony Mackie, and Grammy Award-winning country music band Little Big Town.

Episode one: Be Kind to Your Worm  
Oscar participates in the Be Kind to Your Worm day activities, because he knows it’ll make his best friend, Slimey, happy.

  1. oh brave brave ABC programmer who is willing to mess with the mass of padwans who will not be happy with this and their pestering of their parents. I hope they have put more people on the switchboard and social platforms to deal with this one – a whole lot of pain is coming their way !!!
