Our Guardian Angels

Kindergarten Angels

Well...on to the second feast day of October!

The Feast of the Holy Guardian Angels

We read a cute little book called Angel of God: What's Your Name?  The munchkins had really never thought about the fact that their angels are with them always and that at any given time during the day our classroom is filled with angels! 

We made a quick, easy and oh-so-glittery angel project, which included the Guardian Angel Prayer, to remind us to invoke the help of our Guardian Angel each day and night. 

Then we had angel food cake!

(Although not all the munchkins liked it...)

Angel of God

My Guardian Dear

To Whom God's love

Commits me here

Ever this day

Be at my side

To light and guard

To rule and guide.

Amen

Until next time...

The Annunciation

Gabriel & Mary

The munchkins were so ready for this day, as we have had it marked on our calendar for the whole month...plus...they remember learning all about it when read all the Infancy Narratives during Advent. 

We took a bit of time to re-read the Prophecy of the Mother from Isaiah and the Annunciation from the Gospel of Luke.  It was fun to hear all the little excited sounds when they realized they knew these scriptures.  I think the most fun was when they recognized some of the words from The Hail Mary and The Angelus. (Yes, we know the Angelus!) One little munchkin even said,  "That's where those words came from"!

We had to do something fun to honor this day, so we created a fun little angel art project from Catholic Icing.

The munchkins traced and cut out two hand prints.

Then they traced on footprint.  What a hoot!  Who would have thought that taking off a show could be such a treat!

Everyone added their own special flare when it came to gluing the angel together and adding the face.  We had some curled wings, long eyelashes, and even red eyes!  Lovely!

The best part had to be adding the halo.  Glitter is always a hit!

What a fun way to honor Mary's "Yes"!

Until next time...

Little Angels Program

Little Angels

Our munchkins made absolutely perfect little angels and our Advent Program was just heavenly!

Everyone did such a nice job learning their lines from Luke Chapter 2 and the audience really enjoyed the songs and the Christmas poem.  It was a beautiful way to celebrate the coming of the King.

"...and suddenly there was with the angel a great multitude of heavenly hosts, praising God saying glory to God in the highest..."

Until next time...
