Here's a great suggestion from Ms Byrne of a game to play for Lent!
Lentopoly is a daily game for all the family that is meant to incorporate the different aspects of Lent. By doing the charitable acts each day the player “earns” tokens (nails, pennies, beans, etc.). You can have a container full of tokens and each player has their own jar to put their ‘earned’ tokens into each day. At Easter the tokens are replaced with sweets of your choice. Parents can play too!
Everyone begins on the space marked “GO.” Roll the dice & move the amount shown. If you complete the task indicated on the space, you receive a token. Whenever you pass or land on “GO” you receive 2 tokens. If you land on an “Extra Blessing” space & complete the task on the card you draw, you receive 2 tokens. If you land on an “Extra Sacrifice” space & complete the task on the card you draw, you receive 4 tokens. If you do not complete the task, you do not receive any tokens.
The game, including all the instructions and cards are available to be downloaded and printed off from this link https://catholicblogger1.blogspot.com/2015/01/lentopoly-game.html?m=1
