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.

Our family group is meeting this coming Saturday and we will be discussing Holy Week and I need some type of activity or craft to do with the kids. They range in age from 12yrs to 1yr (20 of them). I know I won't find something for everyone, but something that reaches most would be best.

I've been thinking for a few days now and can't come up with anything so I'm looking for ideas.

What about Ressurection Eggs. I don't know how to link things but if you google it many websites come up that explain them. You need egg cartons, plastic eggs and bible verses. You can also make thinks to put into the eggs to go with the verses. Sorry if I am not explaining this well. It is a lot of fun and they learn to use the eggs to tell the Ressurection story.

I have been saving some really cool links for holy week crafts! I haven't had time to run any of them on my blog yet because I can't seem to stop with the St. Patrick's day stuff Lol!

Anyway, here are some ideas:

Holy Water Sprinkler Craft
Crosses at Calvary Craft

Assortment of Lent crafts/printables
Also, here are some "Holy Week Eggs" that I made last year.

I have a lot more stuff I'm planning on running this week over at Catholic Icing as well, but I thought I would go ahead and throw some stuff out here in case you were needing to prepare and buy supplies.

Hope this was helpful!

You could also do something for Palm/Passion Sunday...we have traced the kids hands ("palms") on green construction paper, and pasted them onto a paint stir stick or something.
