the muppet elmo, who represented the three- to four-year-old child, was chosen as host of "elmo's world" because he had always tested well with "sesame street's" younger viewers. elmo was created in 1979 and was performed by various puppeteers, including richard hunt, but did not become what his eventual portrayer kevin clash called a "phenomenon" until clash took over the role in 1983. elmo became, as writer michael davis reported, "the embodiment" of "sesame street", and "the marketing wonder of our age" when five million "tickle me elmo" dolls were sold in 1996. clash believed the "tickle me elmo" phenomenon made elmo a household name and led to the "elmo's world" segment. clash called "elmo's world" "a colorful, lively celebration of creativity" and "one of the most imaginative endeavors i've ever been involved in". he stated that the segment provided him with new challenges and opportunities for "creative risk-taking".
