Marian Passport

The Marian Passport looks and feels like a real passport, right down to the size, with Mary embossed in gold on the cover. Inside, a short welcome note tells your child how to use the passport to travel the world with Mary. Each of the 20 pages holds a child-friendly illustration of Our Lady, drawn by our artist and based on the statue or image honored at that site.

Your Marian Passport includes:

• The 48-page passport book with 20 illustrated pages of Our Lady
• 5 sticker sheets with a "stamp" for every place in the passport, plus a larger sticker sized for a Yoto card
• 20 audio stories, one for each page, delivered after purchase

Open the Marian Passport to one of the featured places and press play. While visiting Lourdes, your child will hear the story of Saint Bernadette and the beautiful Lady in the grotto. When the story ends, your child finds the Lourdes sticker and places it on the page, the same way a traveler gets a passport stamped. Next time, your child might visit Ireland and Our Lady of Knock, or Japan and Our Lady of Akita. There is nothing to prepare. Each story is about 7 minutes long, and written to engage the hearts of children. 

If your family has a Yoto player, load the stories onto a blank card and top it with the Marian Passport sticker. Many of these stories will be new to you as well, so you will learn right alongside your child.

Children love to collect things, and the Marian Passport turns that love into a way to know their Mother. Every sticker is a small celebration, and a full passport is something your child will be proud of. Again and again, Mary has asked her children to pray, to turn back to God, and to trust her Son, Jesus. Your child hears that message story by story, from Spain in the first century to Rwanda in the 1980s. At the back of the passport are simple prayers to give your child the words to speak to Mary. Long after the last sticker goes in, the Marian Passport will stay a treasured keepsake, reminding your child how much Mary loves them and how faithfully she cares for her children here on earth.

The Marian Passport is best for children ages 4 to 10. The audio stories were written for children in 2nd to 4th grade, and younger siblings will love listening along and placing the stickers.
