    {Holiday Gift Guide} Sesame Street Video USB Review (& Giveaway Ends 12/7)

    By 371 Comments

    ABOUT:

    For over 40 years, Sesame Street has been a pioneer in developing innovative and engaging educational content for children throughout the world. And now, for the first time in the history of Sesame Street, ATP Electronics is proud to announce a partnership that brings educational media into an exciting and dynamically new format – full-length Sesame Street home videos on character USB drives!

    Using innovative patented technology developed by ATP Electronics, the collection of seven Sesame Street characters offers an exciting new way to watch video and store photographs, music, and documents — all on the same drive!

    Elmo, Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Grover, Ernie, Abby Cadabby and the renowned Sesame Street sign each offer different full-length home videos as well as discretionary storage space that can hold up to 400 photos, 400 songs or a virtually unlimited amount of written content!

    These unique Sesame Street home video USBs are easy to use by Sesame fans of every age! It’s a simple one screen, one touch process to access the movie, open drive space or link directly to the Sesame Street website (if used in a PC and connected to the Internet)

    ATP’s exclusive technology provides a safe and secure storage area for the home video and personal storage space. A child cannot accidentally erase or remove the movie, ensuring viewing pleasure for a long time to come. The flexibility and portability of the drive make it the perfect item for travel and use at home. Because of ATP’s special product design, the Sesame Street character drives are waterproof, dustproof and drop proof.

    The beloved Sesame Street characters are a great gift idea for children of any age! A special “wearable” connector strap ensures that both parts of the character will stay together. It also makes for a fun fashion statement — wear it on your wrist or connect it to your backpack! Collect them all! It’s the next generation of fun, education and technology from Sesame Street and ATP!

    MY THOUGHTS:

    I love that Sesame Street has come out with this product.  With technology being the way it is I am surprised more companies haven’t come up with something like this.  Using the Sesame Street Video USB drive is so easy – Open it up, plug it in, and click “Play Program.”  There is nothing you have to install or set-up, just plug it into your USB drive and click Play!  Now fortunately we have extra USB slots on the front of our kid’s PC so Aidan was able to do this himself while I explained what to do.  I do wish the video turned on right away, but it is simple enough to show him how to click Play with the mouse or he could even visit the Sesame Street website.  We clicked the video and it automatically went to Full-Screen mode easily.

    Now I do want to add that the video won’t play on a Mac unless you have Windows (Bootcamp) installed, which is a bummer since my laptop is a Mac without Windows.  We luckily have a PC for the kids to play with and this works nice because Aidan can go down to the basement put this in and watch him by himself whenever he wants, it really is that easy.  I really love though that it is waterproof, dustproof, and drop proof so basically it is kid-proof!  Oh and the fact that your child cannot accidently delete anything on the USB is awesome too!  I haven’t used this as a regular USB drive yet (this part will work on a Mac just fine) but love that it can store 400 photos or MP3 songs, as well as documents.  So now I can store my files on here and carry Cookie Monster around with me so if we are at grandma’s house Aidan can watch his videos on her computer!  There are also no limits – watch the videos as much as you want!  No DVD to carry around or get scratched, this USB drive is pretty indestructible!

    BUY IT: Each character has a different movie on the Sesame Street Video USB drive and each retails for $24.99.  You can find the drives at the following websites: www.store.sesamestreet.org, www.atptogo.com, www.amazon.com, www.costco.com, www.qvc.com, www.toysrus.com and www.walmart.com .

      My daughter keeps pointing at “Elmo” and “Abby” – I’m not sure which we’d actually end up with – both are favorites 🙂

      I think these are such a great idea! Since my twins have different favorite Sesame Street characters I would pick my favorite, Grover.
