Okay I admit I love Elmo, so I can't wait for this DVD, especially since Trisha is a part of it!!!

Genius Products and Sesame Workshop Jan. 6 (prebook Dec. 2) debut Elmo Loves You! on DVD at $14.93 in time to celebrate Valentine’s Day.

Children will learn lessons about love, emotion and friendship when they join Elmo, Rosita and Super Grover on an adventure to find Elmo’s lost surprise card for a loved one.

The DVD includes special musical performances by Trisha Yearwood, John Legend and R.E.M., and kids will learn to sign the words “I Love You” during a new music video.

It would seem everybody wants to be involved in projects with the lovable, furry red monster.

“Celebrities want to be part of Sesame Street,” said Mike Khouri, assistant VP business development, home video and audio for Sesame Workshop. “They come to us and ask ‘can I be on the show?’ ... Jack Black [who appears in an episode this season] is quoted in Parade Magazine as saying, ‘You haven’t truly made it in this industry until you’ve partied with Elmo.’”

Khouri says the show isn’t just for children.

“The show is appealing for care-givers as well,” Khouri said. “It is for everyone — it has such a history for all of us. Parents feel safe with the property — they know the message of it.”

This DVD message begins on the outside of the box, with Elmo holding a big reflective heart.

“Hold it up to you and see,” Khouri said. “Elmo loves YOU!”

Hi Cindy,

Hope you are doing well! Thanks for the information about the Elmo DVD with Trisha on it! I will definitely be looking for it! My four year old will love it as will I! Do you know if this is a new performance of Trisha from Sesame Street or the one she already did? I never got to see the earlier one so it would be great to have it on DVD.

Hey Robin - hope all is well with your family too!

It's been awhile since I've watched Trisha's other Sesame Street performance, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't with Elmo, so I'm thinking this is a new one. Guess we will have to wait for Valentine's Day to know for sure!! If I can dig up my copy of the other Sesame Street performance, I'll get you a copy!

It has been an awful last couple of weeks for my family but we were out at Walmart today letting the girls use their gift cards from Christmas and what do we see but the DVD of Elmo Loves You. I, of course buy it for me. My four year old wanted to know why it was not hers! And my 13 year old wanted to know what in the world I was doing buying Sesame Street for me. LOL! We all sat down together and watched up until Trisha's part and all of us oohed and awed over it! It looks to be the one she did earlier! It was really cute and it is great to have it on DVD.
