We all know the Apostle’s Creed is an important prayer to teach our kids!

But this is a long prayer and it can seem intimidating to both help kids memorize this prayer AND understand what it means. Fortunately, you have come to the right place because Holy Heroes has 2 creative ways to help Catholic kids learn this prayer!

I Believe: The Apostles’ Creed in Sacred Art

For your smaller children (ages 3-5 years old) this Sacred Art book is the perfect way to introduce them to the Apostles’ Creed!

I Believe: The Apostles’ Creed in Sacred Art for Young Children goes through each line of the Creed coupled with a beautiful piece of Sacred Art. Each page also features little explanations to dive deeper into what each part of the Creed means.

One mother told us, “I bought this to help my children to appreciate the Apostles’ Creed. We are just halfway through it and already, my 4-year-old could recite most part of the prayer and she could even relate the prayer to the sacred art in the book. The selected arts and short commentaries truly bring out the depth of the prayer for my children and I.”

The best part? You can get this book on SALE along with 2 other stunning Sacred Art books!

The Very Young Catholic Series

Once your children have memorized the Apostles’ Creed, it is time to dive deeper and help them understand the theology behind this prayer.

The most engaging way you can do this is through the Very Young Catholic Series!

Rather than just memorizing the words, the Very Young Catholic Series dives into each statement within the Creed and applies it to daily life. The author Emily Koczela specifically chooses lines from the Creed to emphasize in each book so kids can learn the teaching of the Catholic faith while seeing it lived out all over the world!

Check out this helpful infographic for a breakdown of which books cover which lines.
