After seven days of tributes from the Grover-loving folks over at Google, Sesame Street’s 40th anniversary has gotten almost as much hype as the Wild Things premiere last month.  The celebration heads to Brooklyn today, where The Muppets Take Manhattan will be screened for old and new fans alike. Before the screening, Roscoe Orman—better known as Gordon—will dish about life on the Street and working with the legendary Jim Henson.

Okay, so we were wrong about Elmo, but Google is still highlighting Sesame Street’s 40th anniversary, this time with dynamic duo Bert and Ernie. What’s even cooler is that Google has vamped up their “Google Doodle” with different characters in countries worldwide. Check them all out on this website dedicated entirely to the Doodle, which showcases every one of Google’s past logos in the US and abroad.

It seems like NYC’s gone nutty for Sesame Street. In honor of the iconic kids’ show’s 40th season (do you feel as old as us?), there’s an upcoming exhibit at the Brooklyn Public Library, prominently featuring the new book, Sesame Street: A Celebration of 40 Years of Life on the Street; a new Sesame Street Live stage show hitting MSG in February; and a retrospective DVD, Sesame Street: 40 Years of Sunny Days, chronicling four decades of top-notch edutainment. Time Out Kids is getting in on the celebration with two cool giveaways: Enter to win a family four-pack of tickets to see Sesame Street Live: When Elmo Grows Up and try to snag one of five copies of the new Sunny Days DVD. Nothing better than free stuff to chase “the clouds away…”
