The new approach and highly popular "Sesame Street," celebrates its 20th anniversary this year . . . Children who tune into the daily adventures at 123 Sesame Street can see their favorite members of the "Sesame Street" gang live on stage in "Sesame Street Live's Big Bird and the ABC's," appearing at Cobo Arena, Jan. 25 through Feb. 5. Created by Joan Ganz Cooney back in 1969, the "Sesame Street" show was in- itially turned down by the networks with critics calling this new programming con- cept "too risky" . . . Program- ming geared toward young audiences, using the techni- ques of Madison Avenue to teach children, was previous- ly unheard of . Now, 20 years later, a study conducted at the University of Kansas shows that 3-to-5-year-olds who watch "Sesame Stret" have a head start in their vocabulary .. . What had started out as something "too risky" has now become a major educa- tional tool. I
