Garden of the Good Shepherd
I’m always looking for new and fun ways to bring the scripture to our kids through the liturgical year. Our “Garden of the Good Shepherd” calendar arrived today! I love, love, love, LOVE it! Illustrated by our favorite, Tomie dePaola, and written with scripture, reflection, and songs by Peter Mazar for the 50 days of Easter! The stickers are reusable which means the little fingers will just need to be careful. It won’t take our kids long to catch up to tomorrow’s readings.
The next best part of this is that Catholic Cuisine has recipes for a Good Shepherd Garden Party each week! I can’t tell you how giddy and excited I am right now!

Where’d you get it from, Sharon? I did some looking on-line, but couldn’t find one for sale (except for one really pricey one . . .)
What a neat idea! Don’t know if I can pull it off this year, but I’d like to try next year. Let me know how your kids respond to it.
This is our third year with ours. The kids love it and beg for the “sticker story” every night. I’ve got a strawberry rhubarb crisp (to go with ice cream and sparkling grape juice) in the oven for our tea party this afternoon!
