Try crafting these teepeees with That Artist Woman.
She has a template!
Print out this Blessed Kateri Fun Fact Sheet
from Catholic Online. I love these!
Here's a free coloring page of Blessed Kateri
from St. John the Baptist Church- these are just
beautiful and a great free resource! Scroll down past the stations.
Check out these comic book pages about
Blessed Kateri at Treasure Chest of Fun & Fact.
I loved these God's Eyes- they look very
Native American with the feathers, yet they're Christian.
I thought it might be neat given Blessed Kateri's story.
Blessed Kateri seems to always be holding a cross made
from sticks in her pictures, so I thought it would be really cool to
make a stick crucifix like this on from Growing with my Girls!
And here are some free printable Native American
paper dolls- maybe give her a cross! ;-)

By the way, I'm not pretending to know anything about the particular tribe Blessed Kateri came from. For all I know, they didn't live in teepees- although there are pictures of teepees in the comic book pages about her... Lol!

lol they in fact, did not live in teepees. My grandfather is a mohawk and Kateri's father was a mohawk. Her mother was algonquin. They lived in longhouses. This is still a great assortment of activites for learning about native americans in general. I chose Kateri as my Confirmation Saint when I was baptised/confirmed 3 years ago ;) I found more info about Mohawks here: http://www.bigorrin.org/mohawk_kids.htm
