3 M Y A N G E L, M Y F R I E N D For children everywhere, and their angels.

4 Hello, I am a guardian angel.

5

6 Everyone has a special guardian angel. You have one too.

7

8 Your angel has always been with you and always will be.

9

10 You can play together every day.

11

12 With your angel, give blessings on your meal.

13

14 Invite your angel to hop in the tub!

15

16 While you are sleeping, your guardian angel will watch over you.

17

18 When schoolwork is difficult, ask your angel for help.

19

20 Ask your angel to watch as you do your chores.

21

22 When you are sad, your guardian angel will comfort you.

23

24 Whenever you are filled with joy, your angel is smiling too.

25

26 Let your angel calm you when you are feeling angry.

27

28 You can tell your guardian angel anything.

29

30 When you are about to meet new friends, remember who is right beside you.

31

32 Your angel loves to watch you learn new things.

33

34 Yippy! You did it! Your angel is rejoicing with you.

35

36 When you feel frightened, please ask your angel to hold you.

37

38 Your guardian angel will help to keep you safe.

39

40 You are never alone. Your guardian angel is with you always.

41

42 You are very blessed to have your guardian angel. And your angel feels very blessed to have you.

43

44 My Angel Poems Poems for you to share with your special angel: Angel, angel come to me, Watch over me eternally. While I sleep, And when I play, Bless me each and every day. My angel, my friend, I m blessed to have you. Thank you so much, For all that you do To keep me safe, And to keep me strong, By my side, The whole day long. Have fun making up a poem or a song for your guardian angel.

45 Puppet Materials: My Angel Puppet Make a puppet with your child, to enhance their relationship with their special angel. Styrofoam ball, size inch Clear vinyl hose tubing with 1 2 inch inner diameter, you ll need only inch long piece Body material, 1 foot square piece (I use foil spandex, with shiny side on the inside.) Wing material, 7 inch square piece (I use pearlize-white or gold tissue lame). Nylon stocking (pick the color you want for the face), need a inch square piece Gold pipe cleaner, 4 inch piece (use gold cording for children under 4 years) Lamb s wool (dyed or natural for the hair), a small 2 inch ball Cotton balls, 1 large or 2 small Thread Sewing needle Scissors White glue Ruler or tape measure Puppet Directions: 1. Press 1 4 inch of the plastic tube into the Styrofoam ball 2. Remove tube, drip glue into the indentation and replace tube securely into ball 3. While glue dries, cut wing material into a butterfly shape (you may make a paper template to trace, but remember, perfection is not important) 4. Snip a small 3 4 inch X into the center of the 1 foot square of body material 5. Stretch the nylon stocking piece over the Styrofoam ball and tie it around the neck with thread 6. Pull nylon stocking taunt to smooth wrinkles on the face side 7. Poke neck and excess nylon stocking through the X in the material for the body 8. Stitch the excess nylon stocking at the neck to the X bits of material on the inside of the body, to secure the head 9. Pull off 2 small pieces from cotton ball, for the hands, roll them into 1 2 inch balls 10. Poke one cotton ball into the underside of the material, about 2 inches from the side of the neck, for a hand. Tie thread around it, on the outside, to hold it in place. Repeat for the other hand. (See photo on back cover) 11. Glue lamb s wool on the head for hair. 12. Sew wings onto the material below the back of the neck. 13. Color on a face, using fine felt pens, or leave the face plain to allow the imagination to paint it on 14. Bend the gold pipe cleaner into a circle and glue it on the top/back of the hair (or use gold cording) 15. Ask your angel to whisper her/his name in your ear, or name your angel yourself.
