"Smarter, Stronger, Kinder" is a Sesame Street song that closes every episode starting in Season 46. It is based around Sesame Workshop's mission statement: "Helping kids grow smarter, stronger and kinder," which appears underneath the Sesame Street logo during the closing credits.

Featured Muppets include Abby Cadabby, Bert, Big Bird, Cookie Monster, The Count, Elmo, Ernie, Fern, a flowering plant, Grover, Murray Monster, Ovejita, Rosita, Stinky the Stinkweed, Stuckweed, two sunflowers, and Zoe.

The closing sequence was shortened in season 49, and was further altered in season 53 with a new music track and appearances by Gabrielle, Tamir, Ji-Young, and Tango (replacing Murray, Ovejita, and Zoe).

The cast performed the song, along with Questlove, at the 2015 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
