Elle Belle Checks Out The Count’s Halloween Spooktacular At Sesame Place

img_1202What do my Mommy and Carrie Underwood have in common? They are loving mommies who took their prized children to visit Sesame Place for the opening weekend of the Count’s Halloween Spooktacular! It was all sorts of silly and not-too-spooky Sesame fun!

It was a sunny day at Sesame Place for a Halloween happening. Abby Cadabby took her wand and magically transformed Sesame Place into a Halloween haven. There are special, seasonal Halloween decorations, themed shows, Abby Cadabby’s Magical Halloween Maze, a fun filled hayride with everyone’s favorite Sesame friends, a rubber ducky costume disco and more! Plus, all the rocking rides and attractions were open for me to enjoy, including an all-new ride: The Count’s Cruisers! Whee!

My little sister loved the three Halloween shows, especially “Elmo The Musical Live: Halloween!” She enjoyed learning about the magic of Halloween with Elmo and Abby. She even clapped at the right time. Thanks to Elmo she is learning so much. As for me, this little lady loved celebrating Zoe’s Birthday with a Monster Mash Dance Party with my favorite character, Zoe, Elmo, the Count, Telly, and Big Bird for singing, dancing, and an all-you-can-eat buffet! What was my favorite part you ask? Doing the cha-cha slide with the birthday girl herself!

The Halloween fun continued as I danced my way over to the rubber duckie costume disco, enjoyed the rides, played some games and explored Sesame Place. But the highlight of the day was when the time came to meet and greet all of my best Sesame friends. I almost didn’t recognize them because they were all sporting such creative costumes! Elmo was dressed like an astronaut, Abby like a fairy princess, Zoe like a witch—everyone looked spooktacular! My sister and I took turns running up to our favorite friends then composing ourselves to wrap them up with our big hugs, flash our winning smiles and give them high fives. We snuggled up for some special, group photos and smiled with delight (and because their fur tickled!) and said trick or treat! Then I used my manners to say thank you.

The last stop of the Halloween hay ride for me was the Count’s Halloween Spooktacular “Neighborhood Street Party” parade. It was a blast! And the finale was a happy Halloween song that is so catchy that Mommy, Daddy, and I all couldn’t stop singing it! The parade had ten terrific floats sparkling for the season and new music and dancing that will had everyone busting a move.

Everyone will have a spectacular Sesame time at the Halloween Spooktacular at Sesame Place!
