The Road To Easter: Holy Week Activities for Little Ones

Our Lent activities consisted mainly on stories and re-telling them. And so will our Holy Week activities. We will be continuing our family traditions, from both sides of our families and make new ones - our new nuclear family. But of course we will be doing some easy activities to show God we love him. I have made a road map to guide us as we learn about Jesus' journey to the cross and until His resurrection. You can download it here . And if you don't have a Jesus of Nazareth wooden doll YET, you can download and print one here . Cut, laminate and stick it to a toilet paper tube, and you're ready to go. download here download here Story: The Triumphal Entry (Matthew 21:1-11) Activity: Go to mass, wave your palms and have them blessed.

Tongues of Fire Wearable Craft Activity

Here's a craft that you can do with your children when learning about the gifts of the Holy Spirit or it can also be an activity for Pentecost.

Stick on the small yellow flame onto the big red flame. Little ones can do this easily. Don't worry if its not in the center, unless they stress about it. Set aside. You may want to keep th...

Lent Activities for Toddlers

Lent is just a few days away. I have rounded up a few activities for our family to do. I planned each week with a gospel account of Jesus' life or teaching and a couple of activities. Ash Wednesday Go to mass and have your foreheads marked with ash . This is another chance to bring the toddler to mass. Yeah, I know its hard, keeping them quiet and still (quite an impossible feat) while encouraging them to participate in the mass, mustering up every ounce of patience you have and gently reminding them for the nth time not to climb on the pews. But still, bring them if you can! Talk about Ash Wednesday . This activity from The Hogatt Homeschool will be a good way to begin talking about Ash Wednesday. I'm sure our tot would have asked 'What's that?' many times at church and I would have named everything he asked about before we do this activity. But he may want to have a go at marking a cross on a person's forehead, and the printable in th...
