Sesame Street: Elmo's Musical Monsterpiece gets children up and dancing and encourages music creation. The game also explores emotional expression through music and dance, introduces instrument names and sounds, and helps children to practice early math skills through music.
All of the music in the game is performed by Ozomatli, and includes some original songs by the popular Los Angeles-based band, whose music is a combination of hip-hop, salsa, dancehall, cumbia, samba, funk, merengue, Jamaican ragga, and Indian raga influences. The upbeat score will appeal to kids and parents alike.

Parents can also customize up to three profiles, set limits for number of games played and more.
