Shalom Sesame – 12 DVD Boxset

This new series from the creators of Sesame Street introduces Jewish holidays, traditions and cultures to viewers of all ages.

Get ready to laugh and sing with this next generation of the popular classic.

Each 30 minute DVD in the set includes a wealth of over 20 minutes of bonus extras including trailers, sneak peeks of all the titles, Grover’s Video Player (music videos), sing-alongs and Karaoke of favorite tunes like “Aleph Bet Song,” “Rosh Hashanah Hannah” (a spoof of Hannah Montana) and the famous “Rubber Duckie” song (in Hebrew!) among others. One of the highlights of Grover’s Video Player on Adventures in Israel is “There Must Be Another Way” by Achinoam Nini, Mira Awad and the Shalom Sesame puppets – the song that represented Israel in the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest, sung in Hebrew, Arabic and English.
