It derives its theme from the Sesame Street television program and characters like Big Bird, Elmo, Ernie and Bert. Sesame Place includes a variety of rides, shows and water attractions, much more suited to very young children than their counterparts at other theme parks. Two of the more popular attractions at the park include Sky Splash and Vapor Trail. Sky Splash is a large raft water slide that stands more than 6 stories high. On clear days, you can see the skyline of Philadelphia from the very top of Sky Splash. Vapor Trail is a roller coaster catering to the tastes of younger thrill seekers (even as young as 3 years of age). Elmo's World, the newest attraction in the park, opened in May 2006 and features dry rides for young children.

Sesame Place first opened in 1980 near the Oxford Valley Mall and initiated the expansion of the commercial complex in the vicinity. The park is open from early May through October. The original park was 3 acres and featured play areas and large computer labs where kids could color their favorite Sesame Street characters. Since then the park has expanded to 16 acres, with rides and water attractions. The Oxford Valley Mall is a two-story Simon Properties shopping mall located next to the popular amusement park Sesame Place in Langhorne, Middletown Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. ...
Several expansions have occurred, including Sesame Island and Twiddlebug Land. In recent years, the park has constructed more 'dry' rides, including the 'Vapor Trail' roller coaster. In 2007, Sesame Place became the first theme park in Pennsylvania to become completely smoke-free.[1] A Sesame Place park also existed in Irving, Texas from 1982 to 1984, closing its doors due to poor attendance and a large number of water parks competing for its business. Another in Tokyo, Japan (Tokyo Sesame Place) was open from 1990 until Dec. 31, 2006.
