"Elmopalooza!" won a Grammy Wednesday night as Best Children's Album.

It beat out Tony Bennett's "The Playground" which also was nominated in this category. The Muppets were also involved with Tony's CD, or at least two of them were, Elmo and Kermit.

Both, Elmopalooza and the Playground can be ordered from Muppet Central's Store.
