You've get plenty of time to mention politics when your kids have learned about other aspects of life ;-)<BR/><BR/>I pretty much ignored the election the last two times around, but this year the difference is 1)I actually get to vote and have to make a decision and 2) Artist Girl will be old enough to vote at the next Presidential Election. I didn't think I could put off learning just a bit any longer :-)Alison Kerrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00732023012497108509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264152875111394590.post-43897295580525907842008-09-27T09:36:00.000-05:002008-09-27T09:36:00.000-05:00(gasp!)

(horrified pause here)<BR/>Mainly because my kids are not even remotely interested in any of it, but sadly their mother can't seem to create enough energy to discuss it either. This election year just has me so...bleah....<BR/>So we've been studying moths and butterflies instead. Ah, the joys of 1st grade science!<BR/>Good luck with the election units maybe we'll generate some interest in the process in 4 years (LOL).Ruralmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01801771238637045987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264152875111394590.post-43165537366342287152008-09-27T09:27:00.000-05:002008-09-27T09:27:00.000-05:00Hi Holly, thanks for the tip.

This month's Appleseeds Magazine was all about the election. I'm sure it can be found at any library. <BR/>*hHollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08625663276122130127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264152875111394590.post-27126762456620158922008-09-26T20:27:00.000-05:002008-09-26T20:27:00.000-05:00Thanks for visiting Lostcheerio.
