And if kids can’t be sent to a good school, public access television can help. According to experts, access to quality education early on can have long-term benefits to the child.

Featuring Jim Henson’s Muppets, the educational show for kids has been a household name with its catchy songs, informative themes, smart humor, and cultural references. The American children’s TV series premiered in 1969, and boasts of more than 4,000 episodes since then. If you grew up during the 70s to the 90s, you’d be very familiar with Elmo, Big Bird, Bert, Kermit, and the rest of the delightful cast of Sesame Street.
