Ep 23. The Happy To Be Me Club

The Happy To Be Me Club is the twenty-third episode in the forty-eighth season of Sesame Street. In this episode, Elmo, Abby and Rudy start a club where they talk about self-love and appreciation.

The episode begins with the three friends sitting on the steps of Sesame Street, having a conversation about how they all like different things about themselves. Elmo likes his red fur, Abby likes her pink pigtails, and Rudy likes that he’s a monster who can skateboard like a pro. As they talk, they are joined by other Sesame Street residents who similarly speak of their likes and dislikes about themselves.

Inspired by their conversation, Elmo, Abby, and Rudy start “The Happy To Be Me Club” and decide to invite others to join them in their goal to love and appreciate themselves. They make a sign and hang it up outside the Sesame Street Community Center, welcoming anyone who wants to join.

Soon, Big Bird and Rosita join the club, and they decide to make a list of all the things they like about themselves. They also learn that it’s okay to dislike things about themselves – like Rosita not liking her singing voice – and that it’s important to focus on the things that make them unique and special.

The club members then plan to make a poster about each of their likes and dislikes, and present it to the rest of the Sesame Street community. They also decide to make T-shirts with the words “Happy To Be Me” on them, to show everyone that it’s okay to love yourself just the way you are.

As they work on their projects, they sing a catchy song about loving who they are, and learn that everyone has something special about themselves that makes them unique. They even help Oscar the Grouch learn to appreciate himself by finding things he likes about being grouchy.

In the end, the Happy To Be Me Club presents their poster and T-shirts to the rest of their Sesame Street friends, and they learn that self-love and acceptance are important qualities to have. The episode ends with a reminder to always celebrate and appreciate what makes each one of us unique.

Overall, The Happy To Be Me Club is a heartwarming episode that teaches young viewers the importance of self-love and acceptance. With catchy songs and relatable characters, it’s sure to be a hit for kids and parents alike.
