The Gift
Your donation will help support Plaza Sésamo, the Mexican version of Sesame Street, and its “Healthy Habits for Life" initiative. The acclaimed Spanish-language television series for preschool children depicts a colorful neighborhood, the Plaza, which is home to a mix of families, children, and Muppets. The series, now in its 10th milestone season, continues to educate and delight children and currently focuses on promoting healthy habits. Sesame Workshop, the organization behind Sesame Street, collaborates with local producers, child development experts, educators, and child psychologists to develop the educational curriculum in response to local needs.
