Based on Sesame Street, the long-running PBS children's television show, Sesame Street 123 for the NES stars Bert's best friend and roommate Ernie and the lovable blue muppet Grover. "Ernie's Magic Shapes" consists of six different magic show-themed games that help teach children colors, shapes and pattern recognition. Children are asked to match simple shapes and colors and to choose specific shapes to form things like rocket ships, wheelbarrows, and birds. Astro-Grover features five different outer space-themed games that help teach children simple arithmetic. Children can add, count and subtract little green aliens called "Zips." When a child gets an answer wrong, he or she is gently informed and allowed to try again.

Game 1
Astro-Grover
667
Look up In the stars. It's Astro-Grover.
Help Grover in outer space as he has a
close encounter with the friendly Zips
from the planet Zap. Children count, add,
and subtract Zips as they improve basic
math skills. If they answer GROVER cor-
rectly, he will fly out to meet the Zips. In
the case of a wrong answer, the Man-in-
the-moon will shake his head and encour-
age the child to try again.
As children develop their number skills, a
series of correct answers results in the
building of GROVER's beautiful city or the
launching of a zippy spaceship. Children
are entertained for hours with colorful
graphics and music that make learning fun!
Game 2
Ernie's Magic Shapes
With a wave of Ernie's wand,
any child can make magic.
ERNIE invites children to join him on
stage to practice matching shapes and
colors as he presents challenging
problems to solve.
Each time ERNIE magically creates a
picture above his head, the child must
consider its shape, size, and color. Each
picture is composed of colored shapes in
patterns that become more challenging
through six levels of play. Shape by
shape, children help ERNIE select the
right one and make the incorrect one
disappear! When the picture is complete,
ERNIE's magic bunny jumps out to dance.
