A new campaign from Sesame Street called 'Love to Learn' is set to run from now until the end of the year, with Elmo as a friendly guide to topics for kids that will be explored on a monthly basis like animals, music, cooking, kindness and more.

The new [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/learn-with-peppa-tonie) series shares a name with [Hasbro's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-chef-x-peppa-pig) [LOVE2LEARN Elmo toy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/educational-toy-line), which features built-in Bluetooth technology so that parents can personalize a child's learning experience.

Outside of its regular Sesame Street YouTube channel, Sesame Street also recently launched 'Sesame Studios' as a new channel that's dedicated to sharing experimental educational videos. Both of these initiatives are examples of how Sesame Street is embracing social media as a way to share educational content with kids.
