Sesame Place - Food and Souvenirs

The food was pretty standard for theme parks at Sesame Place. There were cookies at Cookie's Cafe that weren't at other places, but you could see that the Cookie Monster cupcakes at Cookie's Cafe and the Rubber Duckie cupcakes at Captain Ernie's Bistro were essentially the same things. Children's meals could come on cute Elmo or Cookie Monster plates.





Prices were about standard. One thing I noticed is that the annual membership prices seemed very reasonable. If you live nearby, season passes to a water park could very well be a reasonable investment. That being said, parking is quite expensive (I believe it was $38 for the day, with a discount to $17 for handicapped parking), and Langhorne is not walkable, which I will write about more next week.

Souvenirs are more expensive, but the have some adorable ones.

Just walking into the store there si all this cute, bright, colorful plush everywhere.



There is a good variety of popular characters, and they rotate in less popular characters on a regular basis. While we were there the classic character was Herry Monster.


There is an online store, and the site refers to mail-order also, but this may not show everything. Julie became aware of a Two-Headed Monster Plush through the Sesame Place Facebook page, where the order occurred via an e-mail contact. If there is someone you are hoping for and don't see, it doesn't hurt to ask.

There were non plush items as well, most of which did not interest me, except for some T-shirts.



You may also notice that the Sesame Place site features different store names now, and some things are missing. This is their seasonal retooling. It looks like the water attractions are shut down, which makes sense. I was not expecting the addition of stocking stuffers, but that's cool:

Obviously, my sisters focus more on plush, and looking at this little guy sticking out of the bag, I can't blame them.


Have a sunny day!

(They don't have to say that, but it's one of their options. The better, more into it employees tend to use that one. It is not like Disneyland where you have uniformity of cheerfulness.)
