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.

You already have most of my ideas, Chari. One other thing that we do is I chose an art project from the Usborne Art Skills book. I put the book on the kitchen table for reference then fill the workboxes with the supplies that they will need for that particular project. I use another art book that I use in a similar fashion.
