RESOURCES FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES

USEFUL RESOURCES TO SUPPORT CHILDREN IN THEIR FAITH
Please use this list to explore resources out there (there are a lot more than what is presented here), you know your children best, so take a look at things and see which would work best for your child and where they are at with their journey with God (you may want to go up or down an age group if suitable for your child).
NB: If the title has a * next to it then there is a copy available that you can borrow, speak to Gemma for more information.
