Catholic AnswerFirst Holy Communion is given to a child when they have reached the age of reason and after they have made their first Confession. To receive It worthily, one must recognize that It is the Body of Christ, and not ordinary bread, and be in a state of grace (you must have been to confession, and been fasting for one hour).from Modern Catholic Dictionary by John A. Hardon, S.J. Doubleday & Co., Inc. Garden City, NY 1980
Holy Communion. The Eucharist is the sacrament that preserves the soul's union with God and fosters that union by making a person more holy especially in the practice of the supernatural virtue of charity. As a sacrament of the living, to obatin the graces intended, a person must be in a state of God's friendship when receiving, otherwise the reception becomes a sacrilege (I Corinthians 11:27-29).

First Communion. The precept of the Church that requires children to receive Holy Communion, along with the sacrament of penance, on reaching the age of reason. First issued by the Fourth Lateran Council (1215), the practice was all but discontinued for centuries, due to the inroads of Jansenism. Pope St. Pius X restored the practice and restated the precept, while he also explained how necessarily related are the two sacraments of penance and the Eucharist. "The age of discretion," he said, "both for confession and for Holy Communion is the time when a child begins to reason." This means that "a full and perfect knowledge of Christian doctrine is not necessary either for first confession or first Communion." Moreover, "the obligation of the precept of confession and Communion which binds the child particularly affects those who have charge of him, namely, parents, confessor, teachers, and the pastor" (Quam Singulari, August 8, 1910)
AnswerBelieve in God and had baptism
Believe that Jesus died for your sins. Attain 2 years of knowledge prior to confirmation. I'm Lutheran, so one year of classes about the reformation and different meanings in our prayers and the meanings to the commandments. This continues into the second year, but you are also doing special projects for the church. Protestants are not allowed to take communion until these classes are complete which is usually the 8th grade. I don't know what Catholics do, just know it's much earlier they take their first communion and are very young when they start attending catechism.

Which of the 7 sacraments should Catholics receive as often possible?
Reconciliation and Eucharist should both be received frequently, but Holy Communion, in the Eucharist, should only be received worthily (as in, you've been to Confession and prepared to receive Our Blessed Savior).

Can a Catholic child from a split marriage receive Holy Communion if she is not in the habit of going to Church?
Whether or not you may receive Holy Communion depends on whether you are in a state of grace and properly disposed to receive Holy Communion (and a Catholic). Thus, if you are a Catholic child, and have been to confession recently and are not in a state of sin, and have already made your first Holy Communion, then you may receive Holy Communion. What gives me pause is your "not in the habit of going to Church". Missing a Sunday Mass or a Mass on any Holy Day of your own free will would put you in a state of mortal sin, and you would be unable to receive Holy Communion until you had been in to confession. Your best bet would be to give your local priest a call, make an appointment, and go down and have a talk with him, and make a good confession while you are there. The priest will be able to guide you as to how and when you make receive Holy Communion, and the absolution from the confession will put you in a state of grace to be able to receive Holy Communion.

There is nothing, absolutely nothing, that comes even close to the graces and strength that you will receive in Holy Communion as long as you are receiving it worthily.
