A friend (also a homeschooler) who couldn't understand our objections to it saw me buying some flannelgraph Bible story kits some years ago and remarked that she guessed my grade school-aged kids needed at least some kind of visual stimulation since we didn't have TV......Clueless. Incidentally, "flannelgraph" is still the term I use when my flannel jammies get stuck against the flannel sheets during the winter. Gotta recycle those fossil words. My kids were raised without TV.
