Sesame Street would like to be there for you parents when there is a learning opportunity out in the real world. Let's say your child is at the playground and isn't sharing. Or, she's having a fit while you're waiting in line at the grocery store. The Street wants you to whip out your video iPod (or other portable media device) and have Elmo give your child a lesson on all sorts of things. Or, at least distract her.Each week, Sesame Street will turn out a five-minute podcast that includes clips from old and new episodes. The episodes will each have a theme and will extend Sesame Street's focus this season on vocabulary and literacy.
You can subscribe to the weekly video podcasts here or in iTunes.
