Oh, to be a child again! Childhood is such a sweet season of life, and there is nothing more fascinating than watching children play. And what is better than playing while enjoying our beautiful faith? If you know me, you know I am passionate about teaching the Catholic faith to my children, and learning through play is the perfect way to teach the faith! I love when I am in the middle of folding my laundry and look over and my children are playing Mass, giving their baby another baptism, or playing with their plush saint dolls. Nothing is better! Here are some of the toys that my children have been loving lately:
I love that everything from Shining Light Dolls helps my children to grow in our beautiful faith! This adorable wooden Catholic Church “dollhouse” comes with 22 wooden pieces, including Father dressed in ordinary time garments (green), two altar servers, tabernacle altar, altar, credence table, ambo, monstrance, chalice, ciborium, water and wine cruets, lavabo bowl, two altar candles, two flowers, and the paten with celebrant’s host. Everything can be enclosed for easy storage! This is a high-quality set that will last for years.
All my son Zachary needs is a vestment! (Please let me know in the comments if you have any good shops that sell them.) This wooden baptismal set from Shining Light Dolls is adorable! It comes with 8 wooden pieces, two holy oils, baptismal “shell”, and a baptismal candle with removable flame disc and tray. As you can see, the kids love to baptize Bella’s little baby doll. Even Maria loved to participate as a godparent! This mama’s heart could burst with how cute the kids are!
And this wooden Stella Marie decade rosary puzzle is perfect for the family Rosary or to keep little hands busy so mom can pray! Shining Light has so many different variations of this, but I loved this one the most, and so do the kids! I hope you enjoyed my latest finds in the toy area! And as a bonus, I do have a discount code if you would like to check out these and more fun toys at Shining Light Dolls. Use code ACATHOLICMOMSLIFE for 10% off your entire order.Â
And this Mass Kit Play set has been used so much during play time! Zachary got this for Easter last year and loves setting up and playing Mass! These are such great pieces that I hope to pass down to my grandkids one day. Oh, to be a kid again!
