Honkers

A Dinger makes music with some Honkers, Ernie and Rubber Duckie.

The Dingers are a smarter species of Sesame Street characters. They are very similar to Honkers, except that instead of communicating by honking their noses, they ring the bells on their heads to speak.

A few songs have focused on the Dingers and their unique talent, including "The Ding-Along Song" and "The Honker Duckie Dinger Jamboree" (Martin P. Robinson performed the Dinger in the latter).

An episode featured a Ding-Along, and in Elmo impersonated a Dinger for an impromptu Honker Duckie Dinger Jamboree.

There are at least four different Dinger puppets:
