Summary/Abstract: The research concludes that the children’s activities are present in the practices of our faith: the liturgy is a symbolic dramatic play, the Bible is a book of tales and real stories, the liturgical year gives us the occasion to organize some workshops related to the actual feast in which adults and children can develop their manual capacities for fantasy. The prayers and the performances bring family members together and create the environment for everyone to express their emotions, fears, and desires. In addition, it presents the occasion to know each other better. The consistent practice of religion can be a useful solution to family problems; strengthening not only the family bounds and effective communication, but also even the individuals’ relation with God. The research takes into account the importance of the specifics of childhood and applies “the five love languages” (physical touch, words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service). If parents and pedagogues make an effort to know and to accomplish the emotional claims of children, the mission would be fulfilled. Thus, the growing generations would be able to carry out their duties toward the Church in particular and society in general.
