paper bag nun puppets

Oh, how I love, love, love, LOOOOVE puppets! I grew up in the Jim Henson era of Sesame Street, and puppets just make me happy. Grover is my favorite, by the way.

Lacy's adorable paper bag nun puppets would be perfect for numerous saints, or these could be adapted for any saint, even non-nuns :-).  Check out her suggestions at this post from Catholic Icing.

St. Therese chaplet instructions

Alice Cantrell at Gardens of Grace has a beautifully illustrated tutorial on making these lovely chaplets.  These could be done (with adult assistance) even with younger children.
