In this lesson, your child looked back over the wonderful things
learned about God, others, and our world. Your child
also looked forward to the delights of summertime. The
family activities suggested below will help your child
remember the great truths of our faith experienced in
the kindergarten program, and will encourage your child
to continue to grow in faith. The conviction that God is
always present to us is a central belief of Catholic
spirituality. Go over with your child the "My
Catholic Faith Book." It summarizes what your child
has learned this year.
Since our children live in a world that is constantly changing, it
is especially important that they understand the meaning
of forever. Use the Faith Summary on page 161 to
help your child appreciate that Jesus' love for them
lasts forever--it will never change, and it will never
end.
A Good Catch
There will be times when your child will be "fishing" for
something to do. Talk with your child about the ways we
can show that Jesus is with us. Make fish cut-outs and
write what you and your child will work on together.
Put paper clips on each fish. Make a rod by using a straw with
string. Tie a magnet at the end of the string. Place the
fish face down on a plate. Have your child go fishing to
catch the activity to do.
