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.

Can anyone point me in the direction of websites that would have printable activities for the various saints of the day. I am trying to plan the next ten weeks of work and was hoping to find saints coloring pictures, word searches, crosswords etc I have been spending a bit of time google searching to no avail and then thought I really might be quicker coming here to ask Does such a site or sites exist?

I laminated them, put them on rings and they go to Mass with us for my youngest.

I was going to add Illuminated Ink, but they are not doing any coloring pages right now. So, unfortunatly, I don't have any additions. But I'm keeping an eye on this post!

Erin,

I can't give a simple answer. I use books and Google and saved bookmarks. I haven't found a one-stop-shop yet, although there are some sites that do try. I look for both lectionary and liturgical year feast information. If I have time, I'll type these into this thread, but for now, I have lots of links under LitYrPrintables. Not all are printables or saints, but it's a start.

Resources for Catholic Educators has quite a goldmine of resources, not all sound, and it's hard to navigate. But that's a great place to get links and ideas.

Catholic Mom tries to cover all the bases, so that's another first check place.

Over time I've created bookmarks for the Liturgical Year, organized by month, then broken down by saints to save all the sites I find. There's just too many special interest groups to find all the links in one spot (such as sites dedicated to St. Nicholas or Our Lady of Guadalupe).

And then there are books I use for ideas...

I know my problem is that I'm always tweaking and wanting more, so I never finalize anything!

Trish and Jenn

Thanks you so much for these links, I have started a 'Liturgical Year' folder and bookmarked them. As soon as I have a spare moment, or is it energy? I'll have the next ten weeks planned

I had a look at your delicious site, thanks for sharing, it's great

Okay, I had a DEEPER look this time and 'great' is REALLY weak. Jenn it is INCREDIBLE!!!!

Dopey me thought that the site was just the main links on the page, I had a closer look and realised the purpose of all the tags on the side

What an inspiring job you have done, and what a great concept delicious is.

Here is a list of websites that cover most curriculum areas. My dh set it up over 5 years ago (I think) and has not worked there for 2 years. Please note that these links were functional and appropriate 2 years ago, I have not looked at all of them lately.
