In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. Although some people do
not agree to some parts of the program, parents praise it highly.Tests have shown that children have learned much
from watching “Sesame Street”. The children who watch it five times a week learn more than those who watch it
less. In the United States the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of
children who can watch it regularly. The program uses songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic
understanding of numbers, letters and human relationships.
Why has “Sesame Street” been so much more successful than other children’s shows? Many reasons have
been suggested, such as the educational theories of its producers, the support from both the government and
businessmen, and the full use of various kinds of television skills. Perhaps another important reason is that mothers
watch “Sesame Street” together with their children. This is partly because famous film stars often appear on “Sesame
Street”. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to
learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.
