  1. We just started watching it with Grace last week and I've got to say we love it!! I am so impressed with the show and we enjoy watching it with Grace (and I am learning good Sesame Street knowledge to use at work).

  3. I don't think there is anything wrong with Sesame Street. It is fun and I have good memories of it from childhood. That being said I do think it is very important to limit TV exposure to kids. We have found that our kids are very grumpy directly following TV, movies, computer time... So we use it as a big treat that happens very infrequently.
