In this episode of Sesame Street, Rosita and Luis are excited to welcome the viewers to their beloved neighborhood. Rosita is particularly thrilled because she has received a special package from her abuela (grandmother) in Mexico. Eagerly, she opens the package with Luis's help and discovers a beautiful bead bracelet, a heartfelt letter, and a nostalgic photograph of her abuela standing in a bustling Mexican marketplace. Rosita can't help but feel a pang of homesickness as she gazes at the photo, longing to be with her abuela and experiencing the vibrant culture of Mexico.
Concerned about Rosita's sadness, Big Bird approaches Luis to inquire about her sudden change in mood. Luis explains that Rosita misses her home country and her abuela dearly. Inspired, Big Bird suggests bringing the essence of Mexico to Rosita right here on Sesame Street, although he admits he doesn't know much about the country. Just then, Grover appears, dressed in a colorful mariachi outfit, and sings a lively song about Mexico, providing fun facts about the country's rich culture, history, and traditions. Three little monsters join in, singing backup and translating Grover's lyrics into Spanish in the catchy tune, "Mexico Is a Country." With this newfound knowledge, Big Bird is confident he can bring a piece of Mexico to their friend.
Meanwhile, in the courtyard, a teary-eyed Rosita gazes at the photo of her abuela, missing the sights and smells of Mexico. Suddenly, she realizes the aroma of sizzling fajitas is not just in her imagination – it's real! Big Bird calls out to Rosita, urging her to come to the courtyard for a big surprise. As she arrives, Rosita is astonished to find the area transformed into a lively Mexican fiesta, complete with decorations, a piñata, and a table full of mouthwatering Mexican dishes, all arranged by Miles. Big Bird explains that they wanted to bring Mexico to her, and Rosita is so grateful that she embraces both him and Miles.
As the courtyard fills with the sights and sounds of Mexico, Rosita feels like she is truly at home. Suddenly, she hears the familiar melody of "Cielito Lindo" being played on the guitar. To her amazement, it's Luis serenading her with the classic Mexican song. Everyone joyfully joins in, singing and dancing together. Just when Rosita thinks things couldn't get any better, her abuela makes a surprise appearance, having flown in on Monster Mexico airlines because she missed her granddaughter so much. Abuela is delighted to find that Sesame Street looks like a small piece of Mexico, thanks to everyone's efforts, and Rosita couldn't be happier. Together, they all continue to celebrate and enjoy the fiesta.
