" ( " Child " interview , 2004 ) " When I began working at Sesame Street , I used to observe pre - school classrooms so I could learn more about this age group . I was — and still am — amazed by the creativity and decency of very young children . I think adults have much to learn from them . Including this adult . " ( " Big Apple Parent " interview , 2004 ) On " Rechov Sumsum / Shara ' a Simsim " : " Originally there were going to be two different sets , an Israeli and Palestinian , and there was going to be a third set that was a park . It was going to be neutral ground where the two groups of people could interact . But as we got closer to production a lot of people raised the concern that such a park doesn ' t actually exist , so there was some hesitation to actually create such a place . So rather than have that third set , the compromise was that the Israeli and Palestinian characters would visit each other . But there were some very big screaming matches as these things were sorted out . It ' s just an area where all these issues are so volatile . " On licensing : " My fear and loathing of licensing goes back to my early days at Sesame Street where I was taught that a preschool series and its educational curriculum was paramount . All the rest , the amusement parks , the live shows , the closets full of swag that were protected like gold in Fort Knox , meant nothing compared to the Holy Grail that was the show itself . We , the makers of Sesame Street , felt our show to be the sun around which everything else in the company ( if not the world ) orbited and , quite frankly , the wider their orbit the better . We were the caretakers of Sesame Street , the undisputed Barbra Streisand of all preschool shows . " External links . _ _ NOWYSIWYG _ _
