Help Children Learn the Rosary

The Rosary is a beautiful prayer to share with our children, but it can be hard for children (and adults) to keep their focus while praying. Stephanie Lear Engelman has three beautiful Bead by Bead books to help you introduce your children to the Rosary and help them meditate on the mysteries.

They are basically a scriptural rosary for children, with the story of the mystery told in between each bead. Each of the beads are also color-coded, so that children can follow along and know which bead they are on. You can purchase a matching rosary or follow the directions to make one at https://www.stephanieengelman.com/bead-by-bead.

These books are also full of color works of art depicting the mysteries, which add to the beautiful experience. While these are actually for children, I actually used them to meditate on the mysteries for First Saturday devotions, so adults can enjoy them as well.
