The Old Woman Who Lives in a Shoe is the title character of a well-known Nursery Rhyme. As her name suggests, she lives in a giant shoe (a size 59 triple-E, by Kermit's approximations). She is the mother of many children (so many that she doesn't know what to do). When Kermit arrives at her house, she quickly, and without asking, puts him in charge of babysitting so she can go bowling. (She is a member of the Grey Panthers Bowling League.) Her house is located next to the Young Woman Who Lives in a Hat.

Seven of her children are named. She tells Heather and Johnny not to fight; Brian, Lisa and Cheryl not to watch too much television; and Polly and Kate to go to bed when the frog says. The first five children named hold the same first names of Jim and Jane Henson's five children.
