Elmo joins Sherlock Hemlock in an Egyptian chamber. When they do, the stone doors open to reveal a Sesame Street character. Kids must build words by completing them.
Kids learn to match letters with letter sounds and with things that start with that letter.
Kids help make the right food by building words of the food Cookie Monster must prepare. Elmo takes his position in a book about nature, and on each page is an incomplete sentence and a nature scene. Kids must find the correct word to complete the sentence. These activities provide kids with lots of prereading practice. The graphics are really rich and impressive, and improved over previous Sesame Street releases.
