LOS ANGELES: Apple Inc has ordered multiple live-action and animated series from Emmy award-winning children's television producer Sesame Workshop, a source close to the agreement said on June 20.

It is the first move by Apple to add children's programming to its growing slate of original television shows in development for worldwide distribution. The long-running Sesame Street is not part of the agreement, the source said.
