Hello
I have DS1 aged 3.5, when he was a baby I brought him to mass, but once he got to moving around enough to start being distracting (esp getting into hoo-haa with other littles in the side chapel about toys etc) I realised I just couldn't concentrate and was dreading it, and started going intermittently on my own, although dropping into church occasionally to light a candle with him (which he loves)
I was thinking that advent was a good time to get him started again. last year my father died and it was really good to say "he's gone to God's house"... but I'm wondering what other people's experience is with talking to small children about going to mass, catholicism generally. DH is a non-believer & atheist, although he supports be passing on my religion to both our boys...
would appreciate any tips
