FUN STUFF


In class we prayed quietly in a special way. We closed our eyes and imagined we were sitting on Jesus' lap and we were talking with him.

There is a website where they pray to Jesus in this same special way!

Click on the heart below to go to "Heart Prayer During Lent for children and their families". Ask someone older to read you the prayer so you can imagnine with your eyes closed.

There is a prayer for each week of Lent.

We made yummy lenten pretzels with Miss Barbara! Click on the pretzel for the pretzel story and recipe.
