Idea for Teaching Small Children to Pray

Idea for Teaching Small Children to Pray

For small children, make a picture album for them to have with them during prayer time. You can make one together, or simply purchase one at dollar store and have them add their photos.

Put pictures of family, friends, a homeless person (symbolizing the poor), and a picture of the world.

Include pictures of every day blessings to give thanks for: food, clothing, a home, etc.

Their requests can also be put into picture form: grandmother, father, swing set, new bike, etc.

If there isn’t a photo of a specific person or request, you can have them draw one and use it instead.
