Remember Sesame Street, the kid's TV show where Count Dracula taught children simple mathematics and how to count? That was a long time ago and now, Adafruit, a kit-based electronics retailer, would soon be targeting the same crowd again to teach them about electronics, with the help of Muppets!

You heard it right, <i>Circuit Playground</i>, their new online show, along with Muppets and dolls with names like <i>Cappy the Capacitor</i> and <i>Hans the 555 Timer Chip</i>, will be teaching the basics of electronics and circuitry to children. Limor Fried, founder and chief engineer of Adafruit, will be hosting the episodes along with her team.
For a better learning experience, Adafruit has recently produced a coloring book <i>E is for Electronics</i>. They are also manufacturing dolls of each onscreen character and have included an add-on for the Circuit Playground iPhone/iPad app.
The episodes would be premiering on March 2013 on Google+ and Ustream. So, if you happen to have a couple of children around you, do make them watch these episodes. Who knows, Circuit Playground may just inspire them to become an engineer in the future.
