Greetings Elsiemarie:
I'd first like to suggest that you edit your question to remove your
personal email. Many people view Google Answers and you may want to
keep that information private.
Regarding how to contact Sesame Workshop (a division of PBS and the
Children's Television Workshop), I followed some links on the Sesame
Workshop page at http://www.sesameworkshop.org/parents/ and found that
PBSParents (http://www.pbs.org/parents/) has a Feedback form located
at http://www.pbs.org/parents/feedback.html - by viewing the Source
Code for the page, I located the email mailto:parents@pbs.org. It was
on the code page as <input type=hidden name=address
value="parents@pbs.org">
The link to Parents was located at
http://www.sesameworkshop.org/sesamestreet/ at the bottom of the page
and I followed from there.
There was also a mailto:kids@pbs.org in the Source Code that you may
want to use for your four tear-old to send an email.
From the Privacy page at Sesame Workshop
(http://www.sesameworkshop.org/privacy/) was the physical address and
an email to query about privacy issues:
Sesame Workshop
One Lincoln Plaza
New York, N.Y. 10023
Phone: 212-595-3456.
E-mail: privacy@sesameonline.org
I also searched SesameWorkshop.org in the whois files (this presents
the contact information for the owner of a domain name) but it was not
available. However, I did locate the domain info for pbskids.org

Note the emails/addresses/phones listed in the domain name information
although "hostadmin" is most likely the administrator of the web site.
However the street addresses might be alternatives for you if the
parents or kids email I provided above produces no timely response.
PBS Shop has a toll-free telephone number ((877) PBS-SHOP or (877)
727-7467) and they might be able to give you an alternate email or
toll-free number to Sesame Workshop. I wanted to include this in case
it proved to be helpful. I also searched "sesame workshop one lincoln
plaza" (search was without quotation marks) and discovered:
From http://knowledgenetwork.gbde.org/sesame_takalani.html
Elizabeth Nisbet
Sesame Workshop
One Lincoln Plaza
New York, NY 10023
e-mail - Elizabeth.Nisbet@sesameworkshop.org
(sometimes it helps to have a name though I don't believe this is
related to Sesame Street - nevertheless, it's a potential contact)
From a job listing at Sesame Workshop at
http://www.entertainmentcareers.net/jobid.asp?jcode=10480:
Sesame Workshop
One Lincoln Plaza, New York, New York 10023 or
Email: human.resources@sesameworkshop.org
Fax: (212) 875-6088
So, you now are armed with a few email addresses and I would try the
main parents@pbs.org (mailto:parents@pbs.org) first. I hope you are
able to find out about Elmo's parents and successfully satisfy your
four year-old's curiousity. :)
