The Sesame Street Experience for Military Families is a free traveling tour to military installations across the country. The tour, produced by VEE Corporation, is part of Sesame Workshop’s Talk, Listen, Connect initiative, a military outreach program which launched in 2006. The initiative provides support and offers significant resources for military families with young children experiencing the effects of deployment, multiple deployments or when a parent returns home changed due to a combat related injury. Military families who attend the experience will see a live character performance and receive giveaways.

The outreach tour — a first for "Sesame Street" — is aimed at pre-school-aged children of military service members. It follows a DVD produced expressly for military families by "Sesame Street" — "Talk, Listen, Connect" — with lessons about "deployments, homecomings," and "changes."

The Sesame Street gang will visit Charleston AFB on Thursday, September 25 at the Base Theatre. Admission is free. Doors open at 6pm and the show will begin at 6:30pm. Seating is on a first come first served basis.
