The method of repeated phrases is good, but still use them---no way.
The situations are not what the children of today can identify with. All complete families, mom is home, and do you see anyone of color?
I like your wall hanging, it brings back fond memories, but I like Dick and Jane in history and glad they are not still hanging on for my grandchildren.
