Zachary got this a couple years ago (when he was 6 and loved it!). The best way for children to learn about the Eucharist is through imaginative play! When children use their imagination to role-play scenarios, they learn about them in new and deeper ways.  Children that role-play the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass are more likely to understand what is happening at Mass, pay closer attention, and gain a deeper appreciation for the Liturgy of the Eucharist.  Playing Mass is a beautiful and effective way for children to learn about one of the most important parts of their Catholic faith.  This 20 Piece Set includes: lavabo bowl, 2 white candles and 2 flame discs, altar cross, chalice, ciborium with removable lid, water and wine cruets with removable lids, pall, 6 communion hosts, 1 large celebrant’s Host, and paten.  For the link, CLICK HERE and get 10% off with the code ACATHOLICMOMSLIFE.

My son Jacob (age 11) loves this hat!  He wears it all the time!  And there is a great story to go along with it. The  St. Hubert trucker hat captures the essence of this powerful story, serving as a daily reminder that, like St. Hubert, we too are called to boldly go out into the world and seek those who are yearning for a deeper connection with Christ.  For the link to this hat, CLICK HERE and get 10% off your entire order with the code CATHOLICMOM10.

This one-of-a-kind blanket draws inspiration from the ancient symbolism of the stag, embodying grace, strength, and triumph over evil. Rooted in Luke 10:19, it symbolizes Christ’s authority over darkness, just as the stag conquers snakes.  Not only does it make a heartwarming addition to your home, but it’s also a meaningful gift. Give the gift of courage and faith as you remind your loved ones that Christ goes before us, granting authority and protection to overcome life’s challenges.  CLICK HERE for the link and get 10% off your entire order with the code CATHOLICMOM10.

Unlike traditional bibles that often segregate stories, the Picture Bible seamlessly weaves together 233 Bible stories into narratives, creating a continuous and engaging reading experience. Another reviewer expressed, “I can see how this Bible will be engaging and encourage a child to ‘read on’ more than they might with a traditional Bible or one that keeps stories more segregated.” This unique approach fosters a deep understanding of the interconnectedness of Scripture and inspires children to explore further. With Scripture citations for every story, there simply is no better way to introduce your children to God’s plan through the story that He has deemed so important that He inspired it to be written down. Even Archbishop Fulton Sheen (soon to be beatified!) recommended this bible, saying, “This Picture Bible for all ages is an excellent introduction to those who do not know the Bible and an excellent review for those who do.  CLICK HERE to get the link to this book and get 10% off at check out with this link.

Catholic priest rag dolls are a wonderful tool to teach children about the priesthood, the liturgical year, and its colors, and the significance of the vestments worn at Mass. Each priest rag doll set comes with a priest permanently clothed in his daily clerical clothes (black top, pants, shoes, belt and white Roman collar). The set then also includes removable liturgical vestments including the amice, alb, cincture, 4 stoles (in red, purple, white, and green) and 4 chasubles (in red, purple, white, and green). The doll and all vestments come in a muslin drawstring bag to keep all the clothes safe for the next playtime!  Each set also includes the book, “Sunday Best: How Priests Are Dressed.” This short guide will walk you through the different vestments worn by the priest during Sunday Mass, each with its own meaning and symbolism. Inside you will also find a brief explanation of the different vestment colors worn during the year. CLICK HERE for the link and 10% off entire order with the code ACATHOLICMOMSLIFE.
