I can understand why she wouldn’t get Kermit. He was more famous for being on
The Muppet Show, and when he was on Sesame Street, a lot of the time he had a
trench coat, hat and microphone and was supposed to be a reporter. I’m not sure
if they have him on doing the reporter thing anymore, but he used to do it all
the time back in the day!
Actually, I’m glad you mentioned this about a smaller child not recognizing him.
This diorama is possibly going to be on public display soon, and a lot of kids
would be seeing it; so, I wouldn’t really want to have anything in there they
wouldn’t know. Maybe I’ll rebuild him in the reporter outfit, or just lose him
altogether and replace him with Bert or Snuffleupagus.
