Lent doesn't have to be complicated. I've been checking out some new [**resources for Lent from Creative Communications for the Parish**](https://catholic.creativecommunications.com/?utm_source=Blogger&utm_medium=Catholic%20Mom&utm_campaign=Lent%20Care%20Kit) -- some for you, some for the kids, and some for the whole family. #### For Adults [***Steadfast Love: Inspiration from Henri J.M. Nouwen***](https://catholic.creativecommunications.com/Products/SD9/steadfast-love.aspx) is a daily Lenten devotional that pairs excerpts from Nouwen's writings with original reflections. Each daily page also features a Scripture quote and short prayer. This Lent, resolve to make space in your day for a few moments of prayer. #### For Children ***[I Was Lost & Now I'm Found: A Seek-and-Find Activity Book for Lent](https://catholic.creativecommunications.com/Products/FN7/i-was-lost-now-im-found.aspx).*** Young fans of hidden-picture puzzles will enjoy this activity book, which offers a daily Bible story, accompanied by a puzzle clue that's revealed when the child rubs a pencil over the "invisible" hint. That clue will be found in the hidden-picture puzzle on the same page. Children who can't yet read can still enjoy the puzzles; a parent or older sibling can read the stories to them. #### For the Whole Family Get ready for Lenten almsgiving with the **[My Offering Bread Box](https://catholic.creativecommunications.com/Products/OEH/bread-box-offering-box.aspx).** Press our and assemble the little box, which can hold donations until the end of the season. Keep the box on your dinner table and decide as a family how and where you will donate to help others. There are several small "bread slices" to press out, which include several versions of grace before meals -- a great way to learn a new prayer during Lent. [**What Do I Wonder About This Lent?**](https://catholic.creativecommunications.com/Products/WD4/what-do-i-wonder-at-lent--tearoff-trivia-card-pack.aspx) Enjoy some Lenten trivia together with this boxed set of 25 tear-off cards, each featuring 5 questions about Gospel stories (most focused on the events of Holy Week). Answers are on the back of each card, and often include Scripture references so you and your children can check out the whole story. [**Hosanna in the Highest!**](https://catholic.creativecommunications.com/Products/ACPS/hosanna-in-the-highest-activity.aspx) is a Palm Sunday activity designed to kick off your family's Holy Week celebration at home. This cut-out palm won't become a weapon in the pew, and if your family is unable to attend Mass in person because of the pandemic, this activity will be even more appreciated. The cut-out activity recalls Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem, and includes Jesus and the donkey as well as figures of a girl and boy, along with the psalm for your child. On the back, you'll find a Palm Parade story, a family prayer, and the Palm Sunday story from the Gospel of Mark.
