MY MASS KIT

BY WEE BELIEVERS

Website : http://www.fishpond.com.au/Toys/My-Mass-Kit-Wee-Believers/0897757002001

Product Description: The pieces of My Mass Kit are child-friendly replicas of the items used by the priest during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Created for early childhood education, My Mass Kit is a powerful vocational tool for children. The kit includes 12 cleanable pieces (Chalice, Paten, Crucifix, 2 Candles, Hosts, 2 Cruets, Corporal, Purificator, Finger Bowl, Thurible) and an illustrated, ecclesiastically approved instruction booklet narrated by the Wee Believers™ characters. My Mass Kit is made from all new materials. The pieces are made from a cotton/polyester blend, and the carrying case is nylon.

Dimensions:	30.23 x 29.21 x 10.16 centimetres (0.79 kg)

MY MASS TOTE

Website: http://www.catholicchild.com/MY-MASS-TOTE/productinfo/10001/

Product Description:

Designed especially for our youngest Catholic friends, My Mass Tote is sure to keep small hands content during Mass.

Tucked inside the sturdy canvas tote is the Noah’s Ark Lace ’n Trace (8 glossy, sturdy figures and 8 colourful laces), a picture missal and a board book.

The exterior is printed with cheery angels and two favourite prayers: The Hail Mary on one side and the Our Father on the reverse.

Children will look forward having this faith-filled collection at Church.

The generously sized, cotton canvas tote (15" x 12" x 4").

WEE-BELIEVERS LACING TOYS

Website: http://www.catholicchild.com/WEE-BELIEVERS-LACING-TOYS/productinfo/21994/

Product Description:

This colourful set of 7 faith-themed, dual-sided lacing toys will be a hit with busy little hands.

The sturdy 6" wooden shapes are perfectly sized for use by tots to develop and practice their fine motor skills.

Friendly illustrations on the front with companion Bible verse on the back turn these toys into teaching tools, too! Great take-along activity for the car.

MY LOVING JESUS DOLL

Website: http://www.catholicchild.com/MY-LOVING-JESUS-DOLL/productinfo/20653/

Product Description:

Having this big soft doll of Jesus nearby offers a young child reassurance and comfort.

The 16" doll is clothed in a removable robe of brushed flannel and a fleecy blue undergarment. His friendly beckoning face, his hands and sandled feet are screen printed to last.

The paper scroll adds a special touch as it shares a message which speaks to each "Dear Sweet Child of Jesus" telling the story of His life as the Son of God.
