I have shared in a previous post about some of the resources we have used to help the children prepare for their First Holy Communion. Â This year Anna is preparing for this beautiful sacrament. Â She has already done her first reconciliation, {and her second!}, now we are working towards receiving Holy Communion.
We ordered the dress, and all the accessories to go along with it. Â She enjoyed that portion of her preparation very much. Â Of course the party is fun to look forward to as well. Â We continue to remind her that while the dress, and all the stuff that goes along with it, is a very special and beautiful part of the day – the most important part is meeting Jesus in the Eucharist.
Along with some of the resources from the post above, we will be using some other items. Â It’s nice to have the flexibility to tailor each child’s preparation to their particular strengths. Â Anna is definitely an auditory learning, so doing most of her work orally is beneficial. Â Like with Jonah, we have used the CD from St. Anne’s Helper. Â Here are some further items:

Hi Tiffany,
Thanks for sharing the First Communion JOY link-up. The link-up has been a blessing to me. It is so nice to be able to revert back to one place to find and share wonderful First Holy Communion resources.
Ad Jesum per Mariam, Lena
Thanks for sharing these resources! My daughter will be making her FC this May so these are a big help!
A great collection of resources! Thanks for linking up to NOBH!
Wonderful links! We don’t have any more of our own first communion kids in our future, but I do have grandkids to think about! Thanks for sharing. I had not seen the worksheets or the printing sheet.
