About Sesame Workshop
Sesame Workshop is the nonprofit educational organization best known for creating Sesame Street. Founded in 1969, the group develops media and educational materials that help young children learn foundational skills—literacy, numeracy, social-emotional development and health—through beloved characters such as Elmo, Grover and Big Bird. Their work spans television, digital media, books and community programs worldwide.
On mobile, Sesame Workshop’s apps mirror the organization’s long-standing mission: to make learning playful and developmentally appropriate. The studio’s offerings include interactive storybook adaptations like The Monster at the End… and Another Monster at the End..., skill-building titles such as Sesame Street Alphabet Kitchen, creative tools like Sesame Street Art Maker, and practical learning apps such as Potty Time with Elmo. These apps target preschool-age children and caregivers, combining character-driven engagement with clear educational goals. Over its history, Sesame Workshop has received numerous industry honors—including multiple Emmy and Peabody awards—and has sustained a global reach through localized content and partnerships with educators and public broadcasters.
