Changes: Big Bird's Mommy

Revision as of 00:55, 28 November 2006

Big Bird's Mommy is the mother of Big Bird. Unlike Grover's Mommy, who plays a dynamic role in her son's life, Big Bird's Mommy is a shadowy figure, and seems to have left most of his upbringing to others (such as Granny Bird and Nani Bird).

Sesame Street Episode 0302 featured a rare communication from her, in which she mailed her son a coat. Subsequently, however, all known birthday and Christmas presents come from Granny Bird or the residents of Sesame Street.

In Follow That Bird, Big Bird is treated by the Feathered Friends as an orphan, cut off from other birds. This makes some sense if a grandmother is his closest relative, but less so if Big Bird's Mommy is still around. In fact, Big Bird fantasizes about a Bird Family, including a Mommy Bird and Daddy Bird.
