The resource, with colorful graphics to draw kids in, explains why the changes are happening, and tries to get kids excited about what's coming.
Here's the intro:
Dear Kids,
Something exciting is about
to happen… On the First
Sunday of Advent this year,
we will begin to use
new words for the Mass!
Hundreds of bishops and
thousands of experts have been
working for many years to
make the words just right.
At last, the new books have
been printed and we’re ready
to begin!
There are examples and more explanations to help kids (and their parents) make the adjustment to the new language, which is just a few weeks away. Check it out by clicking HERE.
OSV has tons of resources available for order through its website -- family posters (in English and Spanish), parent guides, catechist companions, and more. And, if you'd like general information covering many different aspects of the coming changes, visit OSV's Roman Missal Changes Resources by clicking HERE. There are lots of links to other sites as well as videos, reflections, and laminated "pew cards" to help worshipers adapt and learn.
