Sweep the clouds away this summer when the family travels to Sesame Place in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. The nation’s only theme park based entirely on the award-winning television show Sesame Street, Sesame Place is where the young and young at heart share in the spirit of imagination and experience Sesame Street through rides, slides, shows and more.

The new Sunny Day Carousel is a one-of-a-kind Sesame Street themed carousel with 36 custom-created colorful, “muppetized” horses and two benches resembling Snuffleupagus. The area is filled with sounds of traditional calliope and organ presentations of the most popular Sesame Street songs, including such favorites as “Rubber Duckie,” “C is for Cookie” and the Sesame Street theme song, “Sunny Days.” This is the perfect ride for anyone who likes a good-go-round.

The only way to get a bird’s-eye view of the park is on Big Bird’s Balloon Race. Choose a Sesame Street character basket and soar high into the sky in this 40-foot high balloon tower ride. Sesame Place’s Vapor Trail is an action-packed steel roller coaster that transports you on a one-of-a-kind twisting, turning mission to the outer limits of the solar system.

Elmo’s World offers you and your child three exciting rides. Strap yourself into a UFO and ride through the stars to Planet Elmo on Blast Off. Hop on the fins of an Elmo fish as it swims its way up and down an imaginary ocean on Flyin’ Fish. Wiggle through a garden of giggles on the back of a beaming bug on Peek-A-Bug.

Come and play at Sesame Playhouse, an area filled with the newest challenging games of skill. For a separate fee, families can play basketball, ring toss, race games and more for as little or as long as desired to earn and trade up for prizes.

At Sesame Neighborhood, interact with your favorite Sesame Street friends at the full-size, outdoor re-creation of the classic Sesame Street television stage show set. Children can “shop” for produce and pretend to total their “purchases” on the cash register at Mr. MacIntosh’s Fruit Stand They can also climb on a fire engine and go inside The Engine House at Sesame Street Engine House No. 1.

Cool off on Big Bird’s Rambling River. This ever-popular attraction is a relaxing, fun-filled adventure that is perfect for all ages. Float in inner-tubes past bubbling, swirling waters, under palm trees with water-filled tipping coconuts and through waterfalls and spraying geysers. Sky Splash allows up to six guests to ride together in a large raft-like tube as they glide under an array of whimsical oversized toys. This popular attraction goes from gentle sky ponds with whirlpool-like jet streams to accelerator slides with speeds up to 20 feet per second. All this adds up to a final plunge into a pool of water!

There’s plenty of fun for the younger ones. Ages seven and under can jump and leap on a springy yellow air mattress at Ernie’s Bed Bounce. They can also frolic in fun fountains or crawl through the water-spraying mazes at Ernie’s Waterworks. On Cookie Mountain, children try to scale the bright blue vinyl cone “mountain” that seems to reach the sky as they climb, slip, slide and have fun. Rubber Duckie Pond offers ages five and under, accompanied by an adult, an activity slide in a shallow pool.

At the 14-acre park, the air is sweet with live entertainment. Sesame Place’s newest neighbor, Abby Cadabby, is the star of the musical show Abby Cadabby’s Treasure Hunt. Abby and her Sesame pals embark on a treasure hunt adventure in search for clues to open a talking treasure trunk. Along the way, they encounter a singing tree, a rhyming rock, a shouting toucan and more. As they find the clues to unlock the trunk, Abby and the gang explore treasures and open their minds to a world of imagination.

In Elmo’s World Live Show, Elmo, Mr. Noodle and Dorothy explore the wonderful underwater world of fishes. The interactive show encourages audience participation as children pretend to be a fish, take a trip to an aquarium and meet a royal kingfish. Filled with songs, surprises and special effects, Elmo’s World Live transports Sesame guests to Elmo’s world of make believe.
