St. Benedict of Nursia
St. Benedict of Nursia, who lived in Italy during the 5th and 6th centuries, is considered to be the father of Monasticism in the West. His famous work, the Rule of St. Benedict is still used by monasteries all around the world. St. Benedict divided the day into thirds, 8 hours for sleep, 8 hours for prayer, and 8 hours for work. The very popular St. Benedict medal is also considered to be a powerful protector against evil.
St. Benedict is a great Saint to teach children lots of different facets of the Catholic faith. Introduce the story of St. Benedict of Nursia using the educational insert in the box. Children will learn about the concept of Ora et Labora- pray and work- and how the Benedictine monks divide their day. Our St. Benedict toy comes with the St. Benedict medal printed on his back as well- a great opportunity to talk about how God is stronger than evil! Great for opening discussions about prayer, work, sacramentals and religious orders.

My Magnetic Daily Calendar
$30.80Ages 3-7
What is today? For a child, that simple question can have so many answers–and this daily calendar helps satisfy them all! Kids will feel a greater sense of control and responsibility when they help post the day of the week, date, weather, and special events on the large magnetic board for all to see. There’s even a space to post their mood–an excellent way to open communication and encourage children to gauge their own emotions. Updating the information is simple: Simply take a preprinted magnet from the lower magnetic board (which hangs below the calendar to keep magnets within easy reach). Then place it on the calendar to fill in the information . . . or make a custom magnet by writing on one of two dry-erase magnet tiles! There are fields for day, date, season, weather, temperature, activities, holiday, and mood.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase
