Sean is in love with Elmo at the moment, so he was beyond thrilled when we were invited to a party at Sesame Workshop<\/a> to celebrate Elmo\u2019s birthday. It\u2019s interesting because Sean will be five this month. By this age, Michael\u2019s infatuation with Elmo was on the decline. I think that the difference is the second child syndrome. Sean has grown up watching the shows that his older brother watches, so he only recently started watching Sesame Street<\/em>. Suffice it to say, he is making up for lost time! He was such a happy little boy on Friday, when the party took place.<\/p>\n

Before the party, we had been sent a review copy of Elmo Worlds: Elmos Favorite Things<\/a><\/em>\u00a0DVD. It will be in stores today (2\/7)<\/strong>, but we received a sneak peek. The first thing that I noticed is that the DVD was 2 hours and 15 minutes long. I\u2019m not a big fan of \u201cDVDs as babysitters\u201d on a regular basis, but they definitely serve that purpose in a pinch\u2026and this is a great one for you to have in your arsenal. Sean was so cute while he was watching it. He kept saying, \u201cElmo and I have so much in common. We\u2019re like twins. We just don\u2019t look alike.\u201d He was saying that because the DVD is a series of clips about things that Elmo loves\u2026many (dinosaurs, building things, etc.) of which Sean also happens to enjoy. \u201cWe like a lot of the same things.\u201d \u201cHe was so cute when he was a baby with those big eyes. It was like Puss in Boots!\u201d rounded out Sean\u2019s commentary.<\/p>\n

We were instructed not to bring Elmo any presents unless it was something that the kids made, so Sean spent Friday morning drawing Elmo a dinosaur. \u2018He likes dinosaurs,\u201d he explained to me\u2026as if I hadn\u2019t watched the DVD with him. Anyway, Sean was so excited to meet Elmo that he was beside himself.\u00a0 At the party, he kept asking \u201cWhere\u2019 Elmo\u201d until the birthday puppet made his appearance. I had no idea that Kevin Clash, the man behind Elmo was actually going to be at the party too, so of course I had to get them together on video.<\/p>\n

<\/p>

<\/center>In any event, we had a blast. Sean was beaming for the rest of the weekend. On the way out, we received a gift bag. Sean already has a couple of Elmo dolls, so he doesn\u2019t need another one. He insisted on keeping a few things in the bag, but he wanted to give the rest to one of you.\n

Here\u2019s what will be in the giveaway bundle:
