About this resource
A five-page activity book inviting children to explore religion in their own lives and community. Page 1 is a “places of worship near me” investigation — drawing the nearest church and the nearest mosque. Page 2 compares Christmas and Eid celebrations side-by-side. Page 3 retells a religious story. Page 4 is the most important — a “what do I believe?” reflection page that respects whatever the child thinks (religious, non-religious, unsure). Page 5 is a respect poster the child designs.
This activity book emphasises RE’s “learning from religion” strand — not just learning facts, but reflecting on big questions.
