Sesame Street Mecha Builders

TV show · 2022

This is one of the gentlest watches you will find: a Sesame Street spinoff starring robot versions of Elmo, Cookie Monster, and Abby Cadabby who solve playful, community-sized problems using a kid-friendly STEM framework called Plan It, Test It, Solve It. Originally on Cartoonito (2022), the complete 26-episode run arrived on Netflix on October 26, 2026 under the title Sesame Street Mecha Builders, making it easy to find right now.

A great fit from the toddler years onward; the STEM framing and mild action pacing suit ages 2 and up comfortably.
