Why is that when we have 2 carts full of groceries from SAMS, we are always in the small car?! Just as frustration hit, we realized that we should be thankful we had a car and thankful we had money for groceries. It's so easy to get wrapped up in drama, even that of our own making.
We had purchased a set of prayer cards from a conference a couple years back, but it came with 3 of each card. We saved one on our prayer card ring and the other 2 sets just sat in a box until I was getting everyone ready for Adoration today. Inspiration struck and I pulled them out, ready to roll!
What You Need:
A roll of tape, blank index cards and a pair of scissors.
Steps:
1. Cut the index cards down to the same shape of the cards.
2. Tape the index cards to the prayer cards only at the top.
(this is to make all the backs the same color but making the prayer still accessible)
That's it! Now we have our very own memory game and we play the same way as memory, the only difference is when we get a match, that person has to say the prayer out loud before they add the match to their winnings! Learning and fun all in one! You can do this with any type of card you have pairs of, but one side doesn't match or create your own with anything that needs memorizing help!

What a great idea...they don't even realize they are learning in more than one way!!
P.S. I forgot to answer your question the other day. I get moils at our co-op, but you can get them at any health foods store, Whole Foods, or online (Amazon and eBay are great!)
