Who's playing?
The whole parish workbook. One path home.
Stories, games, and prayers, in the workbook's order.
Learn them by heart.
The Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be, and Act of Contrition, with motions and meanings.
What it means, and what you do.
Every part of the Mass, from the holy water to “Go in peace.” When to stand, sit, and kneel, and what to say.
Lesson by lesson, from the parish workbook.
Same lessons, saints, prayers, Scripture, and reviews. Works offline. Nothing is collected.
Help Pip the lamb find the way home to the Good Shepherd. Each stop is one lesson from the workbook. Finish a lesson to move Pip along the path and win a saint card.
These saints needed God's forgiveness too. Finish a lesson to open a card pack. Tap a card to see it big, then flip it to read about the saint.
Learn the prayers every Catholic knows, one line at a time, with motions and meanings. Then say them from memory.
Every Sunday, Jesus' family gathers at Mass. Walk through each part to learn what it means, what you do, and what you say.
Found follows the parish workbook lesson by lesson, Lessons 1 to 13, with the same titles, saints, Scripture, prayers, definitions, and reviews. What changes is how it reaches a 7-year-old: one idea per screen, pictures beside words, hands-on play, short prayers with motions, and a little review at the start of every lesson.
Follow your parish's schedule, or do about one lesson a week, so all 13 are done before First Reconciliation. Your child can stop partway through a lesson and pick up there next time. Stop while your child still wants more. If attention drops, switch to the off-screen mission instead of pushing through.
One small thing to do together after each lesson.
What each lesson covers, so you can match it to the parish workbook.
Version A is the prayer printed in the workbook, and Lesson 9 teaches it line by line. Version B is the newest official translation from the Order of Penance, required in U.S. parishes since April 2023. Any sincere act of contrition is valid, even in a child's own words. Ask your parish's faith formation office which one your child should memorize.
Confession is not getting in trouble. Plan a family treat afterward, as a party and not as a prize.
Practice the script at home and let your child play the priest too. Kids lose their fear when they know every line.
Say "You remembered all six steps!" rather than "You're so smart." Effort praise builds staying power.
