"Our kindergarten son's music teacher plays a rap song where the boys are told to "hiss like a snake" and a song about fairies also. Our son refuses to participate in either song. He raised his hand and said that there are no such things as 'fairies' to which the class, the kindergarten teacher and the music teacher all agreed that there were fairies...Since then he has been teased and excluded and it's making him sad and angry. Do you have any info on fairies in the new age realm that we could pass on to the teachers about why we should not be chastised for NOT teaching our child about fairies?"

“This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet[e] did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.
But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, 'Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.'
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: 'The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel (which means “God with us").' When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.”
-Matthew 1: 18 - 24
