You know, I have a possible theory. Dunno if you remember or know about these, but there were these two-piece jigsaw puzzles with Sesame Muppets to teach counting from 1 to 20. The character with the number was one piece, and a matching number of items for each Muppet along with the word form of the number was on the other. Yes, Prairie was included in the set, 17 with seventeen jacks. But there was this lavender female Anything Muppet cheerleader with the 4 on her jersey, and four footballs. What I think is they maybe confused the characters? Especially since it was back in the early days of Sesame? Other than that, I'd write up the question of why Prairie sang about wanting 3 footballs for Christmas and send it to Steve at the MuppetCast to see if he'd forward it to Fran Brill in hopes of getting an answer.

Hope this helps. *Disappears.

Hmmm...I don't remember the puzzles. But yeah maybe Prairie & the cheerleader character were mixed up.I'll Email Steve & ask him to forward it to Fran Brill. (It's been quite a while since "Merry Christmas From Sesame Street" was out though. Hopefully she remembers why)
Thank mew fur your your suggestion.

Newsie (enters gameroom with Cotterpin): Why, a very Happy Birthday to you, Ed. I see you have some amusing amusements for entertainment.

Cotterpin (nods): I really should put a few of these in my amusement park.

Kelly (bringing in some hot barbecue): Hi and Happy Birthday! I'm freezing, so I hope you don't mind that we brought stuff that's hot from the saloon.

Pearl (slaps her knee): Hot dog! I've seen this kinda stuff back when I worked in the circus! *goes to play*

Kelly! Course your welcome, and hey, barbecue! Bless my soul.

Thanks Newsie. Feel free to "borrow" any ideas you like Pin.
