Lost In The Ooze, A Fable About Drug Addiction

How do we teach the dangers of drug addiction? When should the discussion begin?

Lost in the Ooze is a modern day fable.  Originally written as an educational tool for teachers and parents to gently open a dialogue with children regarding the dangers of addiction, it has become a favorite story for audiences of all ages. Every kid should see this video and learn the poem.

Ted Fink taught for 10 years in the Philadelphia school system and has a master degree in Educational Administration. He has told Lost in the Ooze to kids in both elementary and junior high schools and has witnessed first hand how this story initiates conversation about the perils of drug use.  Every teacher should have this substance abuse prevention tool at their disposal.

GO TO OUR STORE and download the 10 minute video now for $2.99! The audio version is only $.99. You can also book Ted for an assembly program.

Show your child this ten minute fable and ask:

  • What do you think ooze is?
  • What happened to the people in the town?
  • Why was John Tuttle so upset?
