Elmo

Elmo is a furry red Muppet monster with an orange nose who lives on Sesame Street. He is self-described as three-and-a-half years old, and almost always refers to himself in the third person. Elmo's birthday is February 3rd.

Other relatives in Elmo's family include his grandma and grandpa; his great-grandmother and his great-grandfather (named Selmo); his Uncle Jack, Aunt Jill, and cousin Jesse; plus additional cousins Elmer, Chester, and Mimsy. Additionally, Elmo's "international" cousins — Pepé from Mexico and Elmonosuke from Japan. He also has an aunt Funella Furchester, an uncle Furgus Fuzz, and a cousin Phoebe Furchester-Fuzz.

According to a Q&A video, his favorite food is wasabi; that's why he has no eyelids. In 2000, Elmo told Donnie and Marie Osmond that his mother and father tell him to never "hate" any food, but he makes an exception for Brussels sprouts, Marie decided to taunt him with a bowl of them. Brussels sprouts have often been listed among Elmo's pet peeves.

As with many children of his age, Elmo is seen somewhat infrequently with a favorite toy of his: an orange monster-like doll named Baby David. Elmo is also devoted to his blue blanket, Blanket.
