Super Grover comes to MIPCOM!
Sesame Street’s new show Super Grover 2.0 leads Sesame Workshop offering at MIPCOM this coming October.
Super Grover 2.0 (13 x six-minutes) is one of three new shows in
development that the producers of Sesame Street will be introducing at the media trade show in Cannes, France, October 4-8.
The new series, which will also be featured as a segment on Sesame Street in the US this September, emphasizes a STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) curriculum by modeling the processes of scientific inquiry (making observations, formulating questions, finding answers through investigation and experimentation and reporting findings). Through engaging and age-appropriate stories, pre-schoolers are introduced to vocabulary, process skills, and concepts that are the foundation of STEM education.
Count TV (26 x five-minutes) features everyone’s favourite number fanatic Count von Count as he introduces children to the number of the day, while Goodnight, Elmo (52 x five-minutes) features Elmo and his dad going through their bedtime routine.
“Sesame Workshop prides itself on constantly experimenting with new formats and characters that will engage our viewers in the most positive way,” said Miranda Barry, Sesame Workshop’s executive vice president, creative. “In this instance, we’ve taken some of our most beloved Muppets and paired them up with age-appropriate curricular goals that create an in-depth and fun-filled learning experience for young children and their families.”
