St. Anthony Feast Day Fun!

Saint Anthony’s feast day is coming up on June 13. He is a very popular Catholic saint- the patron saints of lost objects! Here is a classic prayer to St. Anthony- “Dear Saint Anthony, please come round- Something is lost and must be found!” 🙂 I am just tickled at some of these adorable ideas for celebrating St. Anthony’s feast day with kids!

Never has living the liturgical year been so easy and affordable!
 

So in honor of St. Anthony- patron of lost objects,
why not try a scavenger hunt like they did on Sweetness and Light?
Check out this scavenger hunt on Curly Birds that lets kids work
from pictures. You can print it for free! 🙂

Ever heard of a Tonsure? It’s the name of the haircut that
Franciscans have where part of their head is shaved.
St. Anthony has a Tonsure, see?

So how about trying a Tonsure cake for St. Anthony’s feast day?!
I found this Tonsure Cake over on By Sun and Candlelight.

To read about the tradition of “St. Anthony’s Bread” and get
a recipe, visit Ruth over at Just Another Day in Paradise.
