There's no doubt about it, Sesame Street is a preschool fan favorite and the amusement park in Bucks County is no exception. But if you're looking to stock up on all your favorite character plushies without a whole trip to the park, you're in luck. Sesame Place now has a brand new (and massive) store just outside the gates. The 6,800 square-foot emporium features all your favorite furry friends and is the largest Sesame Street store in the country.

If you're visiting the park, don't worry, there will still be plenty of opportunities to shop within the park including Sesame Souvenirs, Mr. Hooper's Gift Shop, and Oscar's Garage.
