Other titles include Bedtime with Elmo and three more episodes of Elmo's World in One Fine Face. Finally, to celebrate its 40th year educating children, Sesame Street 40th Anniversary will feature two discs filled with classic moments from all 40 years of its history.

The plot involves the Muppets mistakenly intercepting three letters sent by children to Santa Claus and their attempts to fix the problems created by their mishap. The special will feature songs by Paul Williams, who wrote the music for The Muppet Movie and Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas.
