Cory and I thought it would be fun for Brady to go to the show this past weekend. While Buzz Light Year, Cars & Thomas the Train have surpassed Elmo on the cool list he still enjoys a little Elmo from time to time. I will say that if you don't have a 18 month - 4 year old with you I highly recommend not attending the show. All in all it wasn't the greatest entertainment, but Brady enjoyed it. There were quite a few people who brought their infants thinking that they would maybe enjoy it. If you are considering that, I would suggest rethinking it as a good percentage of them were crying.
On the positive side, there were less stands selling Sesame Street 'junk' than I expected. When we went to Toy Story on Ice we were inundated with paraphernalia to the point you could not avoid it. Brady only requested a "spinning light toy" two times during the show and we managed to escape spending about $6- one cup of donut holes for $1.25, a hot chocolate for $1.00 and a $4.00 bottle of water. One nice thing about the Sprint Center is they have a QuickTrip in the arena where you can buy some things at normal prices. Can you guess which items were bought at QuickTrip versus the standard concession stand? Also, we scored a free parking spot which was an added bonus.
Will I be rushing to buy tickets for next year's Sesame Street Live? Probably not. With that said, it was a fun morning for Brady and something different than our normal Saturday routine.
