Editorial Reviews

Review

I have seen no other book that compares with the amount of information pertaining strictly to families as does this one. I highly recommend it. -- Witches & Witchlings magazine

Margie's book is exactly what is required to fulfill the long-standing need for true family traditions. -- Ed Fitch


Product Description

A complete in-depth handbook covering all aspects of Wicca written for family use. Covers not only the Sabbats and other Circle workings but also Passages (birth, puberty, marriage, aging and death), Home Blessing, Spirit Quests and more. Basic information is also provided on pets, plants and gardening, crystals and herbs oriented towards younger children.

Each Sabbat chapter first presents the philosophy and traditional customs for that festival and then gives a selection of appropriate music (words and musical notation), recipes and family activities. Following this is a family ritual/play.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, January 22, 2000
By Kitty "Kitty" (Milford, CT United States) - See all my reviews
This was one of the first books I bought for our family library. I found it very helpful. I love the traditional recipies and the music in it.I also enjoyed the rituals. They were great for our first year of celebrating and now we borrow a bit form them and add our own bits to make them ours. I think this is better to use with older children than with toddlers or preschoolers but a must have!

3.0 out of 5 stars good supplemental resource, February 27, 2004
This is a good book to have in supplement to "Circle Round" by Starhawk. Although it doesn't have nearly as much information, it does have one thing Circle Round doesn't: the rituals themselves. The seasonal rituals are actually family plays- a very creative way to celebrate a holiday. There are also songs, fun crafts, and recipes for each holiday. This book also goes into detail with life passage rituals. Even Pagan families who are not Wiccan may find this title helpful.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book yet!, October 28, 2003
By linuxchic "linuxchic" (Blue Springs, MO USA) - See all my reviews
We have many different Pagan parenting books in our library and we appreciate them all, but we have found Wiccacraft for Families to be our favorite. We turn to this one more often than we do any other. Wiccacraft for Families is like a family Book of Shadows. Within it's pages are recipes, rituals, activities, and crafts for the Sabbats, Moons, and Rites of Passages. Although we have Circle Round by Starhawk in our library and use it often for ideas, we find this one fits our path better especially for ritual and such.
Our family recommends this book as an addition to a Pagan family library.
