What Parents Need to Know
About Pinky Dinky Doo
Parents need to know that this engaging educational series encourages children to use their imagination and make up stories of their own. It's also designed to enhance literacy skills through the use and definition of "big" words, as well as sharpen listening skills through short quizzes that review the details of Pinky's stories.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about each episode and what children learned from it. What problem was Pinky trying to solve, and how did her silly story help? What else did you learn from the episode? Another discussion topic could be storytelling. If you were to make up a story, what would it be about? Who would the characters be? Where would it take place?

I love Pinky Dinky Doo! So much that I will give her a 20th Golden Anniversary with drugs/alcohol/tobacco, fear, language, sex and violence. Yesarooni! It will turn from TVY to TVY7.

Pinky is awesome. My two boys love the show. they sing a long and love answering the games. Keep up the great work Sesame.

My 2 and 4 year olds love this!
My girls love this show! The themes are great and really challenge the kids to "think big". I like the use of a word of the day. Not too long ago, my four year old used the word "perplexing" in a sentence. Appropriately! Great show...
