Scrapbook through the Sacraments…from Baptism through Reconciliation and Holy Communion!
Journey with Jesus through the Sacraments
NOW AVAILABLE by PDF PRINTABLE!

Celebrate your child’s Journey of Faith!

This is our Journey with Jesus through Reconciliation and Holy Communion Craft Kit.
It includes 18 already researched, illustrated and formatted templates of prompting catechism and reflection questions.  As all our Cathletics Craft Kits, it comes with permission to photocopy for a whole class for one term or for all the kids in your family (who live with you) as they celebrate their First Sacraments!

There are suggestions for making your own scrapbook or using a store-bought scrapbook.  There are also instructions to create an Accordion Book.   In either case, there are plenty of catechism based questions, adorable cartoons drawn by 12 year old Kelly and prompting reflections about your child’s experience of the Sacraments, their prayerlife and their growing relationship with Jesus!

Work on a page a day, recording and reflecting about Baptism, the Rosary, the Divine Mercy Chaplet, Reconciliation, the Commandments, Sin, Holy Communion, the Mass, the Domestic Church, Qualities in my Family and Friends, all about Jesus, Mary and the Saints and reflections about Jesus and me and my prayerlife.

Reflection questions, Catechisms questions and Kelly Comics clipart to scrapbook through Baptism, Reconciliation and Holy Communion.Instructions are included to create a unique accordion scrapbook, but templates lend themselves well to any scrapbook!

 Reviews of Journey with Jesus through the Sacraments

I love that this printable craft kit has no fluffy or unsound information.   It quotes heavily from the bible, traditional prayers and the Catechism.   There is clip art and areas for an (older) child to fill in answers to questions and make it really personal.
Review By Happy Little Homemaker

It’s been so wonderful talking about Baptism and Penance with him and watching his understanding and knowledge of our faith expand.

Cousin Marg’s Marvelous Floor Cloths

Posted on



Our really cool cousin Marg is a great artist.  She and Eric have hosted our family for so many great events at their wonderful place in the woods, including workshops creating floor mats! 


The floor mats are usually about 2’x3′.  Marg paints the canvas white, folding (maybe ironing?) the edges over on the back for a clean hem.  We spend a wonderful day painting and visiting, munching and painting.  She then covers the (dry) painted surface with a couple layers of varnish, allowing for plenty of drying time between each coat. 


The above picture is our first floor cloth, created by Emily, Kelly, Marg and me.  We painted this before we had little Adam (what was life like before Adam!?), so each of the 6 puzzle pieces represent our members of the family at the time. 


My Mom and I created a floor cloth for my Mom, with little Bridget who was about 3 at the time.


Mom is a piano teacher, so we again included a keyboard.  Bridget’s favorite part was adding her handprints, playing the keyboard. 



Last year, Emily and Kelly created a floor cloth with cousin Marg. 


They continued the puzzle piece and music theme.



 Last week, Joseph made a floor cloth with cousin Marg and we think he did a great job! 


 It’s going to look great in his room!


Can you tell that Joe likes superheroes?



I hope cousin Marg doesn’t mind me showing off a little of her work…check out Marg’s website!
