ABSTRACT

Sesame Workshop is the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street, the landmark television (and multiple media) program that reaches millions of children every day in more than 150 countries. The Workshop’s mission is to use the educational power of media to help children everywhere reach their highest potential. Delivered through a variety of platforms, Sesame Workshop develops research-based content – including television, books, games, mobile apps, web-based materials, and community engagement initiatives – that supports early childhood learning, helps prepare children for school, and addresses developmental needs. The Workshop’s programs are tailored to the contexts of specific regions and focus on topics that help young children and families develop critical skills for lifelong learning.
