Blessings Every Day: 365 Simple Devotions for the Very Young (Little Blessings) Catholic Edition

I think it's a little "old" for toddlers, but I still read it to my 3 year old. I think the stories are told simply, but really will have more impact to children 4-7 years old. Seriously, *I* get something out of these stories. The Bible lessons are meaningful and appropriate for children. Pictures on each page are cute as well. I have no reservations on recommending this book to any parent who would like to have short and meaningful daily lessons. This is the second year we're on this book, and each day of the book is still like learning something new!

What a delightful book, it is jam-packed with positive thoughts and lessons. I am thrilled I discovered it when I did and disappointed that I didn't find it sooner. I have purchased about six copies of this book. My latest purchase was a gift for my one year old great-nephew. After reading the messages daily, my grandchildren would often excitedly report back to me about it. More than once, when behavior issues came up with any of my grandchildren, 'Blessings' became a great 'Nana' parenting tool. I truly beleive that this book will become a part of their 'Childhood Time Capsule', hopefully, perhaps one day to be read by my great grandchildren.

Excellent devotional for little ones. I read quite a number of devotionals before selecting this one. I have not read the entire book yet, but just from what i have read, its vastly superior to others. It deals with Bible stories and Biblical truths in an amazingly clear way for little ones. Extremely pleased so far. Too bad i had to buy a used copy. I would have loved to buy it new for every little one in our family.

Love my book

I really loved this book except for one thing . . . we are not Catholic. The blue triangle on the front cover says, "Catholic Edition," but I did not realize that until after we had bought the book. However, there is another edition of the book available that is not written for Catholics, and I was able to make the exchange. Actually, the books are very similar; but there is an occasional Catholic reference - such as the Eucharist.My daughter turned 2 in August, and I bought her this book as a Christmas gift. She was enthusiastic about reading it. However, she wanted to read more than one page at a time - tricky because the book is set up to be read daily and has a page for each day of the year. I just read them again, or use them for "catch up" when we miss a day. Sometimes, she does seem to lose a bit of interest towards the end of the reading. She is more interested in what the children are doing in the pictures which is not usually described in the reading. I think this book is probably designed more for 4 & 5 year olds as opposed to 2 1/2 year olds.

This is a nice devotional. I didn’t notice that it was a catholic version upon purchase. I am not catholic however the stories and scripture worked well.

This book was bought as a gift for my 5 year old granddaughter. I haven't heard how my daughter in law likes it, but I found the book sturdy, colorful, and the words very applicable for my granddaughter's age.

Great way to introduce your child to spending time with God. Written at a young child's level and not too long so it won't lose their attention. Set in a "through the bible in a year" type format. I plan to reuse it for a couple years and repeat. My 4-year-old loves it and never lets me forget when it's time. I pair it with "Jesus Loves Me Bible Memory for Toddlers" by Patti Hummel. Perfect!
