"B is for Bubble" is a Sesame Street song performed by the kids and an adult male vocalist, over film footage of various kids chewing bubble gum and popping bubbles. The song is sung as a round, to the tune of "Three Blind Mice."
Originally produced on 16mm film in 1969, the segment was made indoors with the kids blowing bubbles against a painted mural in the background. (First: Episode 0008)
The original aired in many episodes featuring the letter B until the early 1990s. The song was then remade in 1994, outdoors with a new children's chorus (sans the male voice). (First: Episode 3266)
Ernie, Big Bird, the letter B, and some kids sang a short rendition of the song for a street scene in Episode 3811.
A re-written version of the song about the letter P is used in the "Dogs" episode of The Sesame Street Podcast with Foley & Friends.
