Big Bad Wolf

We are big fans of all things Sesame Street around here. Tate still enjoys watching it, so I'm certainly not going to stop him. There will be years and years of sports, superheros, and bad guys on the TV ahead, so why not let Elmo stay a little longer? So if the big brother is watching, then that means the little brother has already heard his fair share of "Can you tell me how to get?" ( I just smile and nod when my pediatrician says it is recommended that children under 2 watch no TV.)

We have been quite surprised to learn that there actually is a bad guy living on Sesame Street. This one.


Will is officially petrified of this fuzzy, purple guy. Petrified! He plays the part of the Big Bad Wolf. And Will believes it. He is on one of our Elmo videos and seems to also keep appearing on several On Demand episodes we've watched. Poor Will can be a happy, dancing machine watching his beloved Elmo. The minute the Big Bad Wolf appears, watch out. Real tears, screaming, and running, i.e.,walking fast, falling, and crawling away as quick as he can.

Sad and kind of funny at the same time. But I do now know at exactly what point on the DVD to fast forward, so we can keep all things sunny and sweet on The Street.
