I teach Sunday school Catholic children at a trad chapel. For Christmas, I would like to give them each a Rosary. Does anyone know a budget source?

You can purchase your choice of non plastic beads, twine, and make them yourself. You can leave out the rosary center which some do to cut costs. The smaller the beads and crucifix, the less expensive they usually are. If making them, using simple knots to tie and hold together will speed up the making process rather than the fancy knots found on the more expensive twine rosaries.

I use Our Lady's Rosary Makers to buy materials. They have some cheap beginner kits too.

http://autom.com/devotional-items/rosaries. $11.88 per dozen wooden rosary beads.

N.B. Please check out the overall length of the Rosary - anything smaller than 17" is tight unless meant for very small hands.

http://www.traditionalcatholicpublishing.com/C-102.html. 18" wooden Rosary for $6.24 each

These are extremely well made - I have this set and can attest to its durability.

In Jesus and Mary,
