"Wall of Numbers" is a recurring animated segment on Sesame Street. Directed by Karen Aqua, it features stylized characters, reminiscent of hieroglyphics or the figures on ancient pottery or tapestry.

One character holds a number to be matched against those on the wall. A chorus of singers croon about the number "on my mind." This was done for three different numbers, 4, 5 (which never aired), and 6. The vocalists were Carolyn Kaylor, Linda Viens, and Denise DiZio. Musicians were Eric Paull (drums), John Styklunas (bass), and co-composer Ken Field on alto saxophones, layered together.
