We make sure mention to DD when we are reading a book that is based on fact, and which ones are pretend stories. She is only 3, but realy caught on quickly.
That's a good thought. I'd hate to skip the neat resources that are aimed at kids, but I do have issues with how they don't necessarily build a sound set of beliefs. Mixing easy-access kiddie stories with real "solid" teaching sounds like a great approach.
