The viral video sensation Baby Shark and several of the iconic Sesame Street characters are teaming up for new online fun.
The Pinkfong Company, the company behind Baby Shark, and Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street, have produced a new animated music video where Elmo, Cookie Monster and Abby Cadabby are learning a new song when Baby Shark and William invite them to join in a game of tag and an underwater dance party. The Baby Shark song is reimagined as the Sesame Street gang joins the vocals.
In addition to the music video, The Pinkfong Company and Sesame Workshop are curating a special Earth Day-themed YouTube playlist filled with fan-favorite nature-themed content from the companies.
“We are thrilled to announce this Baby Shark collaboration with Sesame Street, which has been a cornerstone of childhood for over five decades across the globe,” said Bitna Kwon, chief strategy officer of The Pinkfong Company. “It’s a truly meaningful opportunity for us to create a shared experience that transcends generations, and we hope that the collaboration helps build an emotional connection among modern families while helping them learn about nature.”
“We’re always looking to deliver fun, unexpected collaborations to our fans,” said Jenny Gioia, vice president of multimedia programming at Sesame Workshop. “Pinkfong’s Baby Shark is a cultural icon with the most-viewed YouTube video of all time; that’s an unbelievable accomplishment. We knew we needed to work together and give the Sesame Street treatment to their best-known content, creating a vibrant new music video and so much more for kids and families to enjoy.”
The special music video and playlist is now available on the official Pinkfong, Baby Shark and Sesame Street YouTube channels.
