I grew up with all the Grover books, and it was way before Elmo's World. I am all about old school Sesame Street - back when Snuffleupagus was still Big Bird's imaginary friend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-195288 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 14:38:13 +0000 heffalump 195288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Grover. Just because I love there's a monster at the end of this book. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-195286 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 14:36:42 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 195286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that much like dahlia lithwick, I like to think I'm a chaos muppet, but deep inside am a control muppet. After all, my daughter didn't learn "double check" from her dad, you know ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-195280 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 14:33:31 +0000 Honeybee 195280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always loved Grover, and I really like Super Grover; DD likes Elmo, but I feel like he is just better marketed. You just don't see a lot of "Tickle Me Grovers," or "Grover Loves Me" pj's out there.</p> <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Hmmm, I wonder if this is why our relationship works so well; I am the Bert to your Animal. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-195145 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 13:01:40 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 195145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am decidedly a chaos muppet!

Up until recently DD loved Elmo but recently she has been asking for Big Bird or "bir" as she calls him (Sesame characters are on the diapers we use-Elmo is on all of them but Big Bird isn't). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194551 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:51:05 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 194551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: Aw, I always found that rather charming! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194503 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:22:17 +0000 sulli301 194503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD hasn't seen sesame street, but she does have a toy remote with cookie monster &amp; an elmo book that she loves. I don't really have a preference, I like both. As a kid, I loved Ernie &amp; Bert a lot, &amp; Big Bird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194502 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:21:53 +0000 mrsjazz 194502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Yes, once I found Elmo!</p> <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: I was always mad at Cookie Monster because he wasted all those perfectly yummy cookies. He just crumbled them and they all fell out! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194500 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:21:22 +0000 sslm 194500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I LOVE Grover! He's by far my favourite!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194498 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:18:46 +0000 littlebug 194498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I was a Cookie Monster girl all the way. But since you didn't ask about Cookie Monster (how rude!), I'd say Grover &gt; Elmo. Elmo just annoys the crap out of me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194496 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:18:07 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 194496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always preferred Grover when I watched Sesame Street. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194488 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:15:37 +0000 Rubies 194488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Elmo. He's just so funny. I saw the documentary, too, and it made me feel sad a little. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194464 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 19:47:03 +0000 mrbee 194464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: Awesome!!</p> <p>Did you find the love you needed? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194461 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 19:45:42 +0000 mrsjazz 194461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Elmo! I was so obsessed with Elmo in college. I had tickle-me Elmo and this Elmo that was dressed up like Elvis. Maybe I needed more love while I was in college?</p> <p>@mrbee: I watched the documentary after you mentioned it in a previous thread. Loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194441 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 19:26:58 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 194441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cookie monster :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194389 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 18:39:05 +0000 chopsuey 194389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lo hasn't seen sesame street yet! I've never been a fan of any of the characters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/grover-versus-elmo#post-194372 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 18:24:28 +0000 mrbee 194372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As I mentioned in a previous thread, I used to be a big Grover superfan and kinda dislike Elmo... but then I saw the Elmo documentary and heard the puppeteer say that Elmo's key personality train is Love.</p> <p>Aww... now I kind of like him. But I like Super Grover more. So for me, it goes like this.</p> <p>Super Grover &gt; Elmo &gt; Grover</p> <p>Charlie doesn't know there is a Grover... he only knows Super Grover.</p> <p>Anyway, who do you prefer: Elmo or Grover? What about your LO? </p>
