(This song seems to be fairly mainstream - 2 of the 3 mainline-protestant raised friends who were present when I mentioned it broke into song together.)
Was it "Jesus loves me, this I know, 'cause my Skippy tells me so..."?
I knew the commercial for peanut butter way before I knew it was a religious song, and now they are stuck together in my brain, like peanut butter in unfortunate places.
private
I was just discussing this with somebody the other week, about how in our corner of the country, religion is a private thing, and mentioning it casually in conversation, as some local celebrities do, is as rude and weird as if they were describing their underpants.
I have no advice regarding good Biblical stories that aren't anvilicious, especially not for that young an age. And, personally, I would find it unbelieveably creepy if my nanny were indoctrinating my kid without, like, checking with me first.
