Your Kids Can Call Their Favorite Sesame Street Characters
Calling a Sesame St character on the phone is really cool and can make a child’s day.
Sesame Street is known for their methods of reaching young children in difficult times. To comfort and support kids they added a virtual way of playing together called Elmo’s Playdate to share social distancing ideas in a kid friendly format and a second video featuring Elmo’s dad giving parents a pep talk too.
