at the moment
Growing up I watched Sesame Street like it was my religion. I loved it. Looking back, I realized just how much of an impact it had on my life. I learned the basics of the alphabet, numbers, colors and shapes. Beyond that I learned that people should be treated the same no matter what they looked liked, families may look different, and how to treat other people. It really shaped me into who I am today more than I realized. I am still a sucker for those songs though.
Today I watched The World According to Sesame Street. It’s a documentary that shows how different countries adapt the Sesame Street curriculum and make it reflect their culture. Also, it shows how the show can be used for healing like in Kosovo. It was a pretty interesting 2 hours. I recommend it!
