Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I know its the last minute but - on January 1, for the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, I would like to talk to the kids about the various titles given to Mary in the context of her greatest title "Mother of God." Can someone direct me to a list of the other titles given to Mary?

I always use the Litany of Loreto when I want a good list of her titles... and since Holy Mother of God is the second title listed (after Holy Mary) it would be very fitting for what you describe wanting to do.

That's my first stop, Litany of Mary.

Some other links:

Titles of Our Lady, these are the dogmatic titles

Patron Saints Index: Titles of Mary

Marian Titles, a few links

And even Wikipedia has Titles of Mary and Category of Titles of Mary

Kathryn had a wonderful collection at her blog "First Heralds" Around the World with Our Lady

Yesterday Annie and I were at our local Catholic bookstore and Annie found this lovely coloring book by Ignatius Press:

Mary Most Holy by Katherine Sotnik

It's beautiful with iconic pictures of Mary for each litany name as well as a couple of the apparitions at the end.
