The Holy Rosary

Well, I guess I lied in my last post on the Rosary.




A poster-board Rosary created by my
oldest girls about 9 years ago.

 I did get the Mary cards printed and cut apart. 27 separate pictures; 3 sets: 2 sets of picture cards and 1 set of title cards. (Along with a 'cheat sheet' in case anyone got confused!)

However, I did not get them laminated. (a job for later when I get some spare time!)


We did do a lapbook, but not the one I had originally planned. (I am saving that one for next May, the Month of Mary).


We completed the lapbook on the Most Holy Rosary by Lapbooks for Catholics.

I had purchased this last year and never did get around to doing it.

Perfect for now.

After we completed the components and put the folder together, I asked the littles what they would like to put on the front cover (I didn't printout the suggested pictures)

Nathaniel came up with the idea of a foam Rosary on the cover. Everyone enthusiastically agreed.

Looking for just the right size and color foam piece.

The end result - beautiful!

What you see when you open the folder

And when you turn the extra 'page' over

I am thrilled that I actually accomplished (more or less) what I had planned for the month! WooHoo!
