Strange, the rumours that the Sesame Street makers were going to kill off one of the main muppets to explain about death to kiddie-winks were very unpopular, yet this is on-the-whole taken as a good idea, here at least.
Not that I'm saying it's a bad idea. If South Africa wants to teach children about something, it seems as good a medium as any to teach it through.
Oh yeah, and you word muppet comes from an integration of the words marionette and puppet.
