On this page, I keep an updated list of links to posts with activities that I have created that you can use with your kids or in your classrooms to teach about the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Saints. Check back for new resources, and if you have a specific idea that you are looking for, feel free to leave me a message in the com box.
By request, I have added a grade range next to the activities. This is certainly not a hard & fast level- I am a huge fan of finding resources and then adapting to the needs of a specific group of kids. Don't be afraid to look at something and decide how you can use it in a different and unique way to work with your kiddos.
Anything that has an asterisk next to it (*) means that the post contains free printables. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteGood morning,
ReplyDeleteI would like to look at the Saints of Advent, but when I click the link above, I get the message: "Sorry, the page you were looking for in this blog does not exist."
Can you please help?
Thank you!
Hi Sarah- First sorry for missing this message, but just in case, I wanted to let you know I had archived that post and missing removing this link. Sorry about that! I need to do some revisions on those activities and just didn't have time last Advent, so the post will stay down until I can get the changes made.
