Welcome to our Catholic Schools Week Gift Guide! As a former Catholic school teacher myself, I understand firsthand the dedication and passion that goes into this vocation. Teachers in Catholic schools do more than educate; they shape the hearts and minds of students in faith and excellence. This week, we want to celebrate and appreciate these incredible educators who make a lasting impact in the lives of their students. In this guide, you'll find carefully selected gifts that honor and support the meaningful work of Catholic school teachers. Let's show our gratitude for their commitment and love with thoughtful gifts that reflect our shared values and appreciation.

For the Teacher:

As Catholics, we believe in the power of education to transform hearts and minds. That's why we're excited to introduce our latest shirt design, featuring a timeless message from Saint Mother Theodore Guerin: 'Love the children first, and then teach them.' This simple yet profound message reminds us of the importance of kindness, compassion, and empathy – qualities that are so essential for anyone who wants to make a positive impact in the world. It reminds us that when we prioritize love and compassion in our teaching, we create an environment where young minds can truly flourish. 


Our Teaching Rambunctious Saints tee comes screen printed on a kelly green v-neck t-shirt. Here at Brick House in the City – we get it. Whether you are teaching the classroom or at home – you are doing God’s work and we are so proud of you.The 'Teaching Rambunctious Saints Tee' is the perfect blend of humor and heartfelt sentiment, ideal for the dedicated Catholic school teacher. Made from soft, high-quality fabric, it ensures comfort throughout the school day. The playful yet meaningful phrase on the tee resonates with the joyful challenges of teaching spirited young minds. It's a great way for educators to express their love for teaching and their faith, making it a wonderful gift to show appreciation and support for their noble profession.

It's an ideal accessory for teachers who appreciate thoughtful and useful items that reflect their commitment to Catholic education.


For the Classroom:

Our NEW Catholic Mass Felt Book Kit is finally here! As a former teacher, I know that one of the best ways for children to learn is through play and experience. This led me to create the Catholic Mass Felt Book Kit. I wanted to create something compact and portable that could be playable anywhere. Through play, I hope your children learn more about what is happening during their time at church and that they fall more in love with God who gave us this great miracle. // Each Catholic Mass Felt Book Kit includes a felt book with ample space for each item, one felt envelope with a snap closure to hold each Mass piece, Velcro attachments to use if you’d like, and 18 colorful pieces that represent a part of the holy mass. You will find a Candle, Cross, Chalice, Water Cruet, Wine Cruet, Water bowl, Hand towel, Bible, Paten, Eucharist Hosts, Ciborium, Monstrance, Thurible, Mary statue, Stained glass window, Tabernacle, Altar, and a Holy water font.


The Mama Mary Magnetic Dress-up Doll Set comes with one Mary doll and 6 Marian Devotion outfits and extras. The outfits featured are Our Lady of Guadalupe, Our Lady of the Rosary, Our Lady Star of the Sea, Our Lady of Czestochowa, Our Lady of Fatima, and Our Lady of Lourdes. The doll can be played with on the inner lid of the box or any magnetic surface like your fridge. The Mary doll and outfits can easily be stored in the box with a handle for carrying and Velcro closure. The doll and outfits are made of a sturdy magnet that is great for children’s hands. I hope you love this Mama Mary Magnetic Dress-Up Doll Kit as much as me and my family have.


The 2-In-1 Catholic Coloring details. There are 50 pages total. 30 coloring pages and 20 how-to-draw pages. The Catholic coloring book is an engaging and creative gift for both students and teachers. It offers a delightful way to explore and express faith through art. Each page features unique, beautifully detailed illustrations. This coloring book is not only a relaxing activity but also an educational tool, providing a fun, hands-on approach to learning about Catholic traditions and teachings. It's an excellent choice for teachers looking for interactive classroom resources or for anyone who loves to blend creativity with their faith journey.

 


The Fidget Rosary Popper come in a variety of colors and in the shape of a decade of the rosary. It is made of silicone material and is sold individually. Fidget poppers are commonly used to help relieve stress and anxiety, and help with focus. These fidget rosary poppers are for ages 3 and up.


 My background in education has me constantly thinking about ways to encourage prayer for all types of little learners. This is what led me to create the Fidget Rosary Popper and this Prayer cube. Our prayer cube helps little ones to find a little extra joy in prayer time by rolling the cube and discovering which prayer to pray. The prayer cubes are great for kids to use alone but are a great addition to family prayer time too. The prayer cubes are about 3 inches on each side. They are made of a soft and squeezable foam (which is great if your family prayer time occasionally turns into dodge ball like it does at our house.) 
The 6 prayers featured on the cube are:
The Glory Be
The Our Father
The Hail Mary
The Come Holy Spirit Prayer
The Guardian Angel Prayer
The St Michael the Archangel Prayer
