This guide has free resources that can be key in the Catholic formation of children

The Catholic Encyclopedia (EC) of ACI Prensa has prepared a free guide of resources that can be key in the Catholic formation of children, under the title Religious Catechesis of the Child.

“There is a serious situation that must begin to be reversed: the lack of suitable material for parents to begin the religious training of members of their family,” laments the EC, directed by José Gálvez Krüger, philosopher, historian and researcher.

“Religious formation must progress as language learning and mastery progresses,” says the EC, specifying that it “never ends.”

The guide contains material both for children in the preschool stage, also known as initial stage, as well as for those who are in the primary education stage and preparing for their First Communion.

In the case of the former, there are resources such as Catechesis for children: Alphabet of the Child Jesusas well as various prints that can help the training of the little ones at home.

Then materials are included such as Illustrated Bible for childrenhe Ripalda’s Intuitive Catechism, The Mass explained with imageshe Catechism of the Virgin Mary and one Marian iconography explained for children’s devotionamong others.

These resources, highlights the EC, “will allow the child to form the idea of ​​a holy family, united in prayer, with the aim of achieving holiness.”

“Achieving holiness is the only real meaning and purpose that life has,” he adds, specifying that “that is what human beings were created for.”
