Ever take a toddler to Mass? Ever want to share the Catholic faith with a toddler? I never made a quiet book before this, but I've had this idea in my mind and I made it. Obviously it's a first time experience that I learned from, but overall I think it was a success - the 3-year-old in question loved it! All the pieces happily worked, but things I will do differently (and I plan to update pictures after the next one) would be the page fabrics and how I attached some pieces like probably more gluing in the future and less tiny stitches and NO 3D FABRIC PAINT. On the pages that have 3D paint on both sides, they tend to stick together... I've never used 3D fabric paint before. This book invites your toddler to interact with the different parts of the Mass, beginning with getting Father ready for Mass. The 1st page is dedicated to getting the alb, cincture, and chasuble over the priest's clerics. No, there's no stoles because the stoles, if I understand correctly, the stoles match the chasubles and they would've just ended up being a piece of yarn, so I forwent them. The 2nd page is the Entrance Procession where the servers are on a string of yarn and can be pulled back and forth from the nave to the sanctuary. The 3rd page is the Liturgy of the Word with pieces that spin, flip, flap, pull, and have interesting texture. The 4th page is the Liturgy of the Eucharist, specifically the Preparation of the Altar. Your child gets to place various pieces on the "altar" page in the correct place. The final page is after Mass, Jesus is still there, waiting for us in the tabernacle. The PDF is available right here. I hope you enjoy it, add your own style to it, and feel free to improve on it!

A pilgrimage in our modern age could take many forms. For the season of Lent last year, I invited my junior ethics classes to make a pilgrimage by way of a traditional Catholic devotion--the stations of the cross. But I wanted them to experience the stations in a way that was their own. I invited them to become pilgrims, to journey to the sacred place of the world itself, with its hopes and anxieties, its pain and its need for reconciliation and healing. I hoped that the students' own pilgrimage into the world's concerns would help them grow in solidarity with that world. All the while, I wanted them to see that to journey into the concerns of the world is to walk with Jesus on the road to Calvary.
