Sesame Street

Sesame Street premiered on Public Broadcasting Service(PBS) stations on November 10, 1969 and had positive reviews, as well as high ratings. This series was created around the belief that if you can hold the attention of children, you can educate them.

If you were asked to create a new Sesame Street character, what type of character would you create and why? What would this character's name be? Describe what the character looks like and how the character acts.

My character on Sesame Street would be a fairy. She would be pink and purple. Her name would be Stephanie. She would have a wand, and if it touched you, and if Stephanie said the word cupcake, you would turn into a mini fairy. You would also be Stephanie's little helper. You would help her with homework and chores when Stephanie would study spells. I would do this character because I love cupcakes, fairies and colors pink and purple.

By the way she acts nice and like a good fairy. Stephanie the Fairy is beautiful, and she has long pink hair.

I think I would make a character that is a puppy and it would have light brown hair. It would be a chihuahua because it could speek spanish and it could teach the little kid's a little spanish and the dog's name would be Coco(which is my dog's name). I think the puppy would not be anyones pet but it would just walk around visiting everyone. When Elmo goes to play with his friends the cute puppy would just like to hang around.

I would create a character named Bouncing Bob. Bob would bounce from house to house and teach kids new words. Bob is very funny and likes to read. Bob is short and blue. He has a small nose and small ears. He wears a fancy dark blue jacket with a shiny red tie. He has big eyes. Bob also has a big brother named Jumping Jimmy. Jimmy would jump from house to house and teach kids about math. Jimmy is tall and orange. He has small eye balls,small ears,and a small nose. Jimmy always wears his bright red jacket. Jimmy wears glasses for big presentations. Jimmy likes art and is very good at math. Bob would be important because he could teach young children about different words. While Bob isn't on TV he plays with Cookie Monster and Big Bird. I would create this character because I like teaching younger children new things.

My Seasame street charecter would be the reading fairy. This fairy would go to all the little kids houses and teach them how to read. Her name would be Valorie. Valorie would teach younger kids (2-4 year olds) eaisier words and teach slightly older kids ( 5 and 6 year olds) words that are a bit harder. Valorie has caremel colored hair, blue eyes, and dark skin. She always wears her hair in braids and is best freinds with Nina's seaseme street charecter. She would have a calico cat as a pet named Muffin. She would also be freinds with all animals and would be able to speak to them.Her cat, Muffin would follow her wherever she went. I created this charecter because I love to read, I love animals, and I feel like if this charecter was actually put on Seaseme Street my charecter would help kids to read and be more confident about themselves.

I think a puppy will be a great character, his name is Bouncy-Jumpy Jack. Bouncy-Jumpy Jack has brown eyes.Bouncy-Jumpy Jack is tall and his skin tone is whitish blackish.Bouncy-Jumpy Jack teaches math,writing,spelling. He is cute,he is mean sometimes,he is nice,he is funny. They should create this character cause I like kids and like teaching children a lot of new things.

My character would a dog named Dig. Dig would go around to kids houses teaching them about animal sounds. He would have blue eyes, brown skin, and green strips. I chose the character Dig because I love dogs, the color blue, and digging for things.

My character would be Froggy.Froggy looks like a frog with deformed face. Nobody would play with Froggy becsue he looked so wirtd. In fact, some people called him The Mutant Frog. One day when Froggy was by himself, Elmo came up and played with him. The curse on him was broken and he turned into a she. She and Elmo were best friends forever .The resone I would create this character is to teach kids not to bully. The end.

My character would be named Rebecca Rainbow! She would be very nice when you are nice to her, and a rainbow would appear over her head! When you were very mean to her she would be mean to you, and a storm cloud would appear over her head! She would have special rainbow powers! Whenever she blasts you with a rainbow you would turn into a rainbow girl! You won't have rainbow powers until you have been a rainbow girl for five years. Only girls can be rainbow girls. Rebecca Rainbow would have rainbow wings that let her fly across to rainbow land!

This is a add-on from my first blog ( Just wanted to put a little more on there!)

Valorie would also have a knack for appearing when there's trouble. Such as: Kids bulling, kids refusing to do their homework, and kids not sharing. She would also like art and if someone was being especially good she would leave a homemade masterpiece. ( Or sometimes a special treat!) Valorie would also have a knack for solving problems. She would also be a mathmatition. As a pastime, she would run from house to house and teach kids their math facts and halp them memorize them. She would also be the top of the class in everything, and she would help kids study for tests of any kind. When you are nice to her she will reward you genorosly. When you are mean to her, she'll give you a warning. The next time you're mean to her,you'll get a letter sent to you're parents saying that you wern't being very nice. She'll also teach kids to be nice, even when the teacher or gaurdian's not around, just out of the kindness of your heart. And the biggest lesson she'll teach you is to not hold back, be yourself, and most importantly... HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!

A new character to Sesame Street is Crazy. Crazy teaches kids how to be friendly and helpful to others. He has huge bushy eyebrows and long, orange, puffy hair. He has two big, black eyes and a long nose with a stretched out mouth. He is red, skinny and short like Elmo. His arms and legs are sort but he is a nice and friendly character although, hr acts crazy sometimes and that's what makes him funny. I chose this character because I think its going to be funny when he gets crazy and the children will be friendly and have fun!
