Lap Books for Catholics

FAITH FOLDERS FOR CATHOLICS

I ran across a little note that the web site Lap Books for Catholics will be celebrating it's 2 year anniversary of service.  Lindy Meyer is the creator of these awesome templates and has generously shared her gifts with many families for a really great LOW COST.

What are lapbooks?  Well for a home schooling family it's a series of templates showcasing topics that are either being studied or in need of review.  These "folders" are a gold mine.  Fun, easy to use, and the kids love them.

Faith Folders work the same way but, are used for faith formation and these are Catholic.  I can't say enough good things about Lindy Meyer's Lap Books (with a Catholic twist).  She has made these so affordable.  We have used them for Holy Communion preparation and to celebrate the year of our priest.

Currently, Lindy is donating 50% of the proceeds from the faith folder "Year of the Priest" to charities chosen by the Barrett Family.  In honor of their son, Ryan Barrett.  This particular folder is wonderful...truly a great project for the whole family.

Please visit her site and take a look.
