Busch Gardens Tampa Bay is excited to welcome Sesame Street\u2019s Julia to the Safari of Fun. Julia is an autistic four-year-old girl from Sesame Street <\/span>who enjoys playing with her friends Elmo and Abby Cadabby<\/span>. To celebrate the addition of Julia and to honor Autism Awareness Month, Busch Gardens will host a sensory friendly showing of \u201cLet\u2019s Play Together,\u201d April 13 & 14 at 10am. After the showing, walk-around Julia will meet with guests who attended the show. Families can also take home free Sesame Street storybooks featuring Julia. <\/p>\n

Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street, developed Sesame Street and Autism: See Amazing in All Children<\/a><\/i><\/span>, with content featuring Julia, to help support families with autism and promote the uniqueness in all children.  Busch Gardens Tampa Bay celebrates the unique in all things, from animals to people, things that thrill us and inspire us \u2013 which is why having Julia as part of the Sesame Street Safari of Fun at Busch Gardens is so exciting. Busch Gardens Tampa Bay is now the second theme park in the country to have Julia as part of the friends of Sesame Street. <\/div>\n

Sesame Place\u00ae, also owned by SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment, offers regular visits from Julia. SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment is committed to providing a family-friendly experience, including all members of the family. In 2019, SeaWorld\u00ae Orlando, Aquatica<\/span>\u00ae, and Discovery Cove\u00ae were all recognized as Certified Autism Centers.
