February 2 is the feast of the Presentation of the Lord Jesus in the Temple. It commemorates Simeon’s famous prophecy that Jesus would be a “light of revelation to the Gentiles.” It is also known as Candlemas since it is the day that candles are blessed for use throughout the Church year.

fbccenterville.org- My Eyes Have Seen Game (page 5)
Play this guessing game that is very similar to "I Spy". Choose one family member to be the first leader. That leader should pick something in the room that is visible to everyone. He should say, "My eyes have seen..." and then he should give a hint. For example, "My eyes have seen something that starts with the letter P." Or "My eyes have seen something green." The other family members should try to guess what the leader has spotted. When a family leader guesses correctly, she gets to be the new leader.

The Waiting Game- This icebreaker game will help your kids discover that God delivers on his promises even when waiting is part of his plan. (The Encyclopedia of Bible Games for Children’s Ministry, page 157).

Rosary Bingo- Students play regular bingo, but they answer questions about the Rosary. The teacher asks one student at a time a question from the list. The student answers the question and the class looks for the word(s) on their bingo card. The first student who gets five in a row (up, down, across, or diagonal) on their bingo card first, wins. You can play in teams or individually. (The teacher can give the students some hints to help them answer the questions correctly if needed.)








The Holy Rosary Game- Practice reciting the Holy Rosary while you compete against others.
