Baby Shark and Sesame Street's musical collaboration is just 'sensational'
The popular kids TV characters have come together to make new music and - WARNING - it's VERY catchy...
Baby Shark has teamed up with Sesame Street and Pinkfong to create a very special version of the classic Baby Shark song and fans think it's 'sensational'.
You don't even have to be a parent to know the lyrics to the Baby Shark song because once you've heard it, there's no getting it out of your head.
You know, the song that starts....Baby Shark, doo-doo, doo-doo, Baby Shark, doo-doo, doo-doo, Baby Shark, doo-doo, doo-doo, Baby Shark.... then Mummy Shark, doo-doo, doo-doo,... - you get the drift
It was so popular that aside from the cartoon, Baby Shark has become a household name that kids are loving the Crayola Color Wonder Baby Shark 6-piece set that helps them get creative.
Even Britain's Got Talent 2023 judge Simon Cowell invited them to perform on The X Factor final back in 2018 for his son Eric, who was a big fan.
And now the much-loved characters have teamed up with Sesame Street's Cookie Monster and Elmo - who trains kids how to go to the bathroom with its Potty Time Elmo plush toy - to release a remix of the popular Baby Shark track.
The Pinkfong company and Sesame sTREET workshop have released a cute animated video that has reimagined the hit and they've included more characters into the mix from Baby Shark and William, as well as Elmo, Cookie Monster and Abby Cadabby.
