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.

Here is a historical story to read to the children on the feast of the Holy Name of Mary (12th Sept) it will appeal particularly to boys..Defending the Ave Maria It is a small excerpt from William Thomas Walsh's The Last Crusader: Isabella of Spain. One of my favourite books!
