November Printable

November in the Orthodox Church is a busy and joyful time! We begin the Nativity Fast - fasting from November 15th-Dec 24th! This is one of the 4 great fasting seasons in the Church. We are fasting, increasing services/prayer, and finding new opportunities to give alms. We also have many special feast day traditions including the beloved St Martin Day (Nov 12th) which is a cherished tradition just before the Nativity fast begins! It is also a very busy cultural time in our world - with the “Holiday” season. It takes intention to live the Christian life, and this time of year is no exception. Find ways to slow down this season and prepare your heart to receive our Lord!

That’s why I created a one page monthly printable! My hope with these monthly printables is to pair it down for you. Let’s make a goal to learn about ONE saint this month, and do ONE activity this month related to a featured saint. Throughout the month, learn ONE hymn by singing it together every day, or as often as you can. And lastly, intentionally carve out time to create a strong family culture in your home (in the Family Corner section). According to Saint John Chrysostom, the home is a “little church.” By bringing these small experiences of the Church into the home, we more fully recognize and appreciate what it means to be the Church when we gather during the Liturgy. Our lives at home should be a reflection of our life in the Church. I’ve also included a few reminders of common traditions associated with the feast days each month.

For this download, you will receive October, November, December:

The Printable Includes :

  • Important dates in the Orthodox Church Calendar and a few reminders of common traditions associated so you know what's coming up and plan accordingly

  • Saint focus for the month - details about their life in a simple understandable way for children.

  • Family Corner - building family culture takes intention, so we've included a simple ideas for the whole family to engage in summertime activities as a family.

  • Activity - one of the best ways to help kids engage in the Liturgical Calendar is by bringing the stories to life! Making those connections outside of church can be really helpful so when they are in church for the services they can make those connections in the Liturgy, icons, and hymnography. And don't worry, you don't have to be a “crafty” parent to do these activities. They are very simple and fun!

  • Song - let's learn one song a month, shall we? By singing the hymn weekly, you'll begin to familiarize yourself with it so by the time you hear it sung in church, you'll already have it written in your heart ❤️ the Liturgical Hymns hold the meaning behind each Feasts, so learning them will be a great joy

  • BONUS: included some extra information and QR code links to go further into living liturgically!

Pen Pal Starter Kit
$4.99

The art of slowing down, conversing through written thoughts, sealing them in an envelope, and putting it in the post is not only practical, but it is a treasured past time. As apart of our weekly homeschool lessons, we write letters to our penpals. This has helped us practice our neat penmanship, spelling, grammar and handwriting. We have acquired several penpals, and keeping track of all our addresses is a challenge so I created this packet to give my children some independence and build up their confidence in their own writing skills. This packet was created for my children but I thought it might help yours too!

My children have been writing penpal letters for a year now and I’ve discovered a few obstacles that make letter writing challenging for them to do without me. My hope is to encourage independence so they can freely write letters and send them out with little assistance. This is an all inclusive download to help your child learn how to write a proper letter, address the envelope and keep track of what letters they need to reply to.

Here’s what included:

  • 15 page download - available instantly

  • Envelope Sample Guide - to help your children know how to address an envelope

  • Blank space to record their own address

  • Page to record penpal addresses (2)

  • Penpal Tracker - keep track of what letters received and what needs to be replied to

  • 5 Letter writing tips for correspondence

  • Sample letters to help your child know what to write (2)

  • Printable Stationary (5) with lines- custom designed by my own children for yours!

If you’re like me, you’re hoping to encourage your children to write letters through Penpals. Writing letters is a lost art, especially in our digital age, so it’s my hope to reclaim this important human skill while fostering long-distance friendships. Letter writing is a gift because someone has taken time to write and think and express love. Is there anything better than receiving a hand-written letter in the mail? Let this packet be your child’s guide to confidently start writing penpal letters! So grab a cozy cup of tea, print off this packet, and write some treasured letters to your favorite pens pals!

This is an instant digital download. This is not a physical product. Stickers, cards, and clipboard are not included. To shop for supplies, check out my Amazon storefront:
