Everyone on Sesame Street helps Oscar to have the rottenest birthday ever.

Being sick is not as much fun as Big Bird imagined even though his friends come to visit.

When Grover goes to visit his cousins in the country, he is ashamed to admit that he does not know how to ride a bicycle.

Big Bird goes to stay with his grandmother at the beach and is homesick until he makes a new friend.

"When his schoolmates laugh at him for not being able to hit the ball in a baseball game, Grover is so upset that he is mean to his friend Big Bird." --

"Elmo is just too small and too slow to keep up with his bigger friends on Sesame Street, but a treat from Grover's grandpa demonstrates that sometimes it can be good not to rush off." --

"At the beach Grover sees a bottle, two toy sea horses, threee waves, four beach umbrellas, five old shoes, six sailboats, seven kites, eight sea gulls, nine Popsickle sticks, ten bottle caps, eleven shells, and twelve friends." --

The Sesame Street characters explore going to school, through stories, crafts, and other things to do.
