- Target: Sesame Street
- Sponsored by: Breastfeeding mothers and their supporters everywhere
Please take a moment to sign this petition to bring breastfeeding back to Sesame Street.
Back in the 70′s and 80′s nursing was tastefully shown on the show but now they have replaced their nursing videos with bottles.
Please note… We are not asking Sesame Street to remove bottle feeding. We are asking that both ways of feeding babies be shown as normal. If we normalize breastfeeding in our community, especially with our children, we can help raise a generation of breast-feeders which will support our economy, make for healthier children and lessen the risk of breast cancer for many mamas!
Due to the WONDERFUL response we have decided to raise the goal to 50,000. If we still are gaining steady then we will be aiming for an ultimate goal of 100,000 signatures. The more numbers we have the more we can show Sesame Street that this is needed and supported. If you have any questions you can contact me through Care2′s email system.
To help normalize breastfeeding and remove the Booby Traps in the U.S., please make a donation to Best for Babes at,
It is sad children now don’t know what breastfeeding is.
I agree! Breast-feeding should be shown on Sesame Street. It’s the healthiest way to feed a baby.
Sesame Street has had a huge influence on children and parents of young children. This is a natural place to help promote breast feeding.
I’d like to sign the petition
breastfeeding belongs everywhere–even on SS!
My thoughts on the topic.
