Hi Melanie,

 

I am new to this mailing list, a homeschooling mom of 4 children ages 1 -

5 1/2. I have checked out many homeschool websites and don't recall

seeing anything specifically related to vegetarianism. Here is an

address for " The Link: the Nation's Homeschool Newspaper " -

www.homeschoolnewslink.com - they might know something there.

 

Most of what we do is more of an " unschooling " approach, so we talk a lot

at mealtimes about what we are eating and why, also the negative effects

of eating animal products. We go on field trips to the AZ Science Center

and the Heart Center, a program of our local American Heart Association.

We have done some hands on activities to show what would happen if more

people ate beans/grains instead of feeding them to animals and eating the

animals.

 

I have recently heard of a book called " Twas the Night Before

Thanksgiving " by Dav Pilkey, which has a vegetarian bent, and received

the following poem on another mailing list. Hope this helps!

Point of View

 

Thanksgiving dinner's sad and thankless

Chistmas dinner's dark and blue

When you stop and try to see it

From the turkey's point of view.

 

Sunday dinner isn't sunny

Easter feasts are just bad luck

When you see it from the viewpoint

Of a chicken or a duck.

 

Oh how I once loved tuna salad

Pork and lobsters, lamb chops too

Till I stopped and looked at dinner

From the dinner's point of view.
