After Recess!
I love the idea of the meditation after recess: it is a good time to ponder the day's activities and personal choices.

Sacred Story Cross
The Sacred Story Cross was designed by Fr. Bill Watson, S.J. and manufactured for SSI by a toy company in Hong Kong. It works like a Rubik's Cube with the roman numerals for the Ten Commandments and the Letters: CPMME for Creation, Presence, Memory, Mercy & Eternity--the five movements of the Examen the students are learning.
The cross works as a puzzle, a prayer device and a physical aid to learning Sacred Story Youth. It has a loop for connecting to a backpack, too. A fun gift that can go with your students/children, keeping God close to their hearts while also helping them to learn spiritual discernment.
