Sesame Street Supports "No To Bullying"

SesameStreet, Big Bird, Public Broadcasting Service, Bullying, YouTube, Abby Cadabby, PBS, Monday

Big Birds problems getting into The Good Birds Club are at the center of an anti-bullying effort being launched by Sesame Street. The venerable PBS show will air a special episode Monday that aims to teach preschoolers how to recognize and combat bullying. The show said that studies say bullying behavior is seen in children as young as 3, so it's important to get the message across.

In the episode, Big Bird is invited to join the club, but a bully won't let him in and makes fun of him. Desperate to join, Big Bird asks the fairy Abby to make him smaller and change his yellow feathers to blue, but he still doesn't pass muster.

Kid Friendly Online Video


Looking for some Kid-Friendly Online Video? Check out TOtlol. It is an independent website by a father from Vancouver, Canada. Here, parents of 6 month olds and 6 year olds can enjoy checking out videos as "all videos available at TOtlol are intended to be enjoyed by kids," the note in their About Us stated.

Parents who join the community can scout YouTube for possible kid friendly videos using a Totlol interface. Parents who submit a video are asked to provide review of the content, specify the main language if the video and what age group may enjoy it and categorize it. The rest of the community are then asked to screen videos submitted by others to grade them.
