After hearing about it for so long, Strange Magic has hit theaters and many of my friends have already gone to see it. There were those who had the good fortune to see it at Skywalker Ranch and interview George Lucas and there were those who have seen it in theaters. Reports are coming back that this is a fun movie and I would love to take the kids to see it. I have some fun stuff for you about the movie including some Fun Facts, a new featurette and some downloadable activity sheets.
Last year I got to meet Cookie Monster and David Rudman the man behind the Muppet. It was really nice to meet him and talk about Cookie Monster and what Sesame Street is doing with that character. Cookie Monster has been starring in many parody sketches this year and last but this is his first hour long special. I am looking forward to watching it.

New special: “The Cookie Thief”
PBS KIDS and SESAME STREET will premiere an all-new one-hour special on February 16. “The Cookie Thief,” During the special, a cookie art museum has just opened on Sesame Street. Cookie Monster and his friends feel as if they’re in a whole new world, but when art suddenly starts to disappear, Cookie Monster quickly becomes a suspect. Can Cookie Monster clear his name? Will they find the missing art in time or will Cookie Monster be banished from the museum forever? “The Cookie Thief” is a fun, action-packed special in which Cookie Monster explores self-regulation concepts – such as impulse control, following directions and managing emotions.
