It's Sesame Street Day! 🤎 🤎 🤎 🐹 🍪 🍪 🍪 📺 🥕

If you're of a certain age, chances are you grew up with Bert and Ernie, Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Oscar the Grouch, and the rest of the unforgettable residents of Sesame Street.

Sesame Street first opened its doors on November 10, 1969, introducing a revolutionary new approach to children's television that combined education, music, puppetry, and plenty of silliness. Created by Joan Ganz Cooney and Lloyd Morrisett, the program brought Jim Henson's marvelous Muppets into millions of homes, teaching generations of children their ABCs, numbers, and the importance of kindness, friendship, and sharing.

And speaking of sharing, there's nothing quite as wonderful as a cookie. Except perhaps a guinea pig. Or, better still, a guinea pig named Cookie!

G is for Guinea Pig, and that's good enough for me!

Wink! Wink!

Wheek! Wheek!
