''Play With Me Sesame'' is a LighterAndSofter (even more than usual) SpinOff series based on Series/SesameStreet. It was developed for Creator/{{Noggin}}, a channel co-owned by Creator/SesameWorkshop and Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}. Fittingly, the drawings on the show's backdrops are the same ones from Noggin's "Moose and Zee" interstitials.[[note]]These drawings were designed by Melinda Beck at the Nick Digital studio.[[/note]] ''Play with Me'' featured classic Sesame characters with their own segments: Ernie playing ''Ernie Says'', computer games with Bert, Prairie Dawn's Art Class, and Move and Groove with Grover. As Grover, Prairie Dawn, Bert and Ernie are the hosts of the show, other Sesame Street characters are DemotedToExtra.

* ArtEvolution: Grover's then-current puppet (introduced in 2004) was used during season 3 after two seasons with his previous (and longest-lasting) puppet from the mid-1970s' to 2003. Prairie Dawn is the most prominent: the first season used the puppet that used from 1995-2002, the second season introduced a different puppet used until 2005, and the final season saw a new puppet that would be used up to 2008.
