Ernie & Bert Märchensongs ("Ernie & Bert Fairy Tale Songs") is a Sesamstrasse mini-series, airing as "Sesamstraße präsentiert" ("Sesame Street presents").

Nine segments, at 4:30 length each, aired on KI.KA beginning on December 13, 2011. The segments star Ernie and Bert in classic fairy tales, often in drag, with some help from Sesamstrasse friends and stock animal characters (including Finchen and Wolf). Each segment features a new original song.
