16 How Far Would You Go to Get the Hottest Toys of the Season?
If there's one things moms like to do, it's share information. We have our favorite car seat, stroller, toys, and more, and we're not afraid to tell everyone about them. Over the past month, we asked you to vote on your favorite things from 2011 — everything from the top push chair and celebrity baby name to the celeb mom you most like to follow on Twitter — and you weren't afraid to speak Read more
This post is brought to you by the letter 'P' — as in party! For over four decades, Sesame Street has been providing children with education through entertainment and humor. We don't know what exactly it is that makes the Sesame Street gang so appealing, but we do know one thing for sure — kids love them! So if your little one is part of a new generation of fans, a Sesame Street-themed party Read more
We hate to say we told you so, but we warned you that they'd be the hot toys of the season. It's beginning to look like the Zhu Zhu pet crisis of 2009 all over again as desperate parents try to get their hands on the LeapFrog LeapPad Explorer and Let's Rock Elmo. Amazon and the traditional brick and mortar toy stores are sold out of both, and parents are doing just about anything to secure them Read more
This party is brought to you by the letter A! Finding a tot who doesn't love Elmo is like finding a needle in a haystack. We'd dare to say that Elmo has become the most beloved character from Sesame Street, so it's no surprise that Elmo-themed birthday parties are pretty popular for toddlers as well. A traditional Sesame Street or Elmo-themed party has a primary color palette and can be very Read more
In the 15 years since Tickle Me Elmo was introduced to the market, adults and kids alike have been taken with the lil red monster's infectious laugh.

Now, with Hasbro taking over the Sesame Street toy line, the company is introducing Read more
Lots of moms like to think out loud, and Jo Aaron is one of them. Here is a post from her Mommy Brain blog. Finally back from summer break and loving it. Of course one of my son's schools actually started a few weeks ago and though my daughter's school doesn't start until next week, they then take most of the month of October off for the Jewish holidays. Not that I'm complaining. So while I Read more
Taking a break from his duties on Sesame Street, Elmo visited NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida to see the final space shuttle launch. Suited up for official NASA duties, in this video Elmo shows us how to move in space, why he wants to space travel and where in the universe he'd like to go. Hint: Cookie Monster and Elmo may go there with some space cookies. Read more
What happened to the nice Elmo I grew up with? When a man started assaulting customers in a Florida guitar store last Saturday, a guy wearing a furry Elmo costume fought back, reports CNN. The man in the Elmo suit had just performed at a children's event nearby, and when he was in the guitar store, the attacker started throwing punches at him. I bet he didn't think Elmo would respond in Read more
Katy Perry's Sesame Street duet with Elmo is being pulled from its upcoming episode, so Katy and her fiance, Russell Brand, spoke out on Twitter. Even Elmo himself got in on the action this morning on The Today Show. Check it out on PopSugar Rush! Read more
It looks like Will.i.am isn't the only singer sharing the stage with Elmo and friends this Fall. As Sesame Street gears up for its 41st season, the gang will continue its tradition of welcoming a roster of familiar faces, including Jennifer Garner, Amy Poehler, Sherri Shepherd, Julie Bowen, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell. Oprah will be lending her voice to a character while Katy Perry joins Usher Read more
