Sim Sim Hamara

Sim Sim Hamara is the Pakistani version of The Sesame Street and was funded by the USAID with 20 billion dollars. The programs' goal is to promote early childhood education, with language, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills but also to "promote positive attitudes among young Pakistani audiences". To make it culturally relevant, the female puppets have dark braided ponytails and the puppets going to school wear uniform (which is very common in Pakistan).
Below is a link of its promo trailer.
