Have you ever said to yourself, “Self, I love Groupon, I want to donate to an autism awareness charity, and I want to visit Sesame Street, but I don’t know how to do all three at the same time.” I know I have! So, good news for all of us.
Over on Groupon.com, you can spend $10 on Sesame Workshop’s autism initiative, which will automatically enroll you in a contest to win some amazing stuff, including a trip to the set of Sesame Street! It’s win-win-win! The full list of prizes is as follows:
- Behind-the-scenes tour of Sesame Street during a live taping at the Kaufman Astoria studio (children must be 4 years old or older to visit the set)
- Original drawing of the winner with the Muppets, drawn by the associate design director of special projects at Sesame Workshop, Louis Henry Mitchell
- $400 dining credit at Bobby Van’s Steakhouse
- Round-trip coach airfare for four to New York
- Three-night stay at the Doubletree by Hilton Metropolitan New York in a deluxe room with two queen-size beds
- Ground transportation from the NY airport to the hotel and from the hotel back to the airport, as well as transportation to and from the Sesame Street studio
- The experience will happen in February at a time agreed upon by both the winner and Sesame Workshop

As an added bonus, here’s a new video of Grover with a family with two autistic children. Grover is, unexpectedly, adorable. And so are the kids.
