From Episode 115: Susan and Gordon like the beautiful weather so much, that they feel like a drive and a picnic in the countryside. The only problem is that they don't own a car...so Gordon assembles a make-believe car ("the 1949 Hudson Hornet") from lawn chairs. A few children join them for the "ride", asking questions and listening to the adults' remarks along the way.
NOTE: Sesame Workshop has digital copies of the complete episode (and several others) available through iTunes--

@Marbles471 After 15 years in ...with each generation of kids...yeah...it's that serious. When kids mainly sit in front of a computer, play video games, watch TV (that is not GOOD TV), text, FB and Tweet all day...well, where is there room for being creative?

Really? That's very sad. I hope it's not as true as it seems to be in your experience, but I wouldn't be too surprised if it was. Sigh.

I love this...pretending is fun! From observation in my classes, it's much more difficult for kids to use their imagination today as it was back in the day. I wonder why? *I say with a hint of sarcasm*
