In this Level, young children are developmentally ready and excited to form a relationship with Jesus, the Good Shepherd, who calls them by name.   Materials on the Life of Jesus and His teachings help make the mystery of God concrete for the child.   Also, the child becomes acquainted with the Liturgy through gestures and arranging realistic articles that are used at Mass.

Children of this age are deeply connected to God and they can easily fall in love with Jesus and begin a lifelong relationship with Him.
