Celebrate Elmo's Birthday with Elmo! 

Elmo day is a day to celebrate the lovable red Muppet character, Elmo. He is known for his high-pitched voice and wild red hair, antics on Sesame Street and his love of singing and dancing.

Elmo made his debut on Sesame Street in 1985. He was created by animator Tony Geiss and puppeteer Carroll Spinney, who also performed as Big Bird at the time. Elmo was originally conceived as a monster, but later revised into a child-like character. He quickly became a fan favorite, and has remained one of the show's most popular characters for over 30 years.
