Lenten calendar

Okay kiddo, have you heard of Lent? It's a time in the year when some Christians try to focus on being more like Jesus. Lent starts on Ash Wednesday and lasts for 40 days until Easter Sunday. During Lent, people often give up something they like, such as candy or video games, to remind themselves of how Jesus gave up his life for others.

A Lenten calendar is a special calendar that helps people keep track of the 40 days of Lent. It's kind of like an Advent calendar, which helps people count down the days until Christmas. Each day of Lent, you open up a little door or window on the calendar to reveal a picture, a prayer, or a Bible verse that helps you think about Lent and what it means.

Some Lenten calendars also have activities or challenges to help people do something special each day. For example, one day might ask you to do something kind for someone else, and another day might ask you to spend some time thinking about what you're thankful for.

The Lenten calendar is a fun way to celebrate Lent and get ready for Easter while thinking about how to be more like Jesus. So let's give it a try and see what new things we can learn and do during this special time of year!
