Mini-Biographies (Courtesy of Sesame Street / Sesame Workshop):
Rosita is an optimistic and playful 5-year-old whose full name, Rosita la Monstrua de las Cuevas, means “The Monster of the Caves.” She hails from Mexico, and speaks both Spanish and English, often mixing words from both languages
Grover, Sesame Street’s gregarious blue monster, accomplishes his tasks with the childlike exuberance that has been making young viewers laugh (and occasionally cringe) for more than three decades. He is excitable, caring and compulsive-a combination that proves particularly volatile when he rushes into situations without analyzing the consequences. Children connect with Grover when he is confounded by adult logic
Rocio Galarza is the Vice President of Content Design, U.S. Social Impact at Sesame Workshop. She oversees all content and curriculum development for Sesame Workshop’s social impact work.
