Friends to the Rescue

There's a hurricane headed toward Sesame Street! When weatherman Al Roker issues a weather warning for Sesame Street, the neighborhood prepares for the big storm by collecting supplies, taping windows, and gathering together to stay safe and dry. But after the storm passes, Big Bird is heartbroken to discover that his nest has been destroyed. All of Sesame Street joins together to rebuild Big Bird's nest twig by twig and raise his spirits hug by hug. This video special is a powerful tool to encourage children to help each other when facing real challenges.
