Last week we took advantage of one of our last days on the front porch. We decided to have a little picnic. Nothing fancy, just Mac and Cheese on a blanket in paper bowls.
After we finished eating I gave each of the younger girls (the oldest was away at Bible Camp), a folder, paper and some new markers to create a prayer journal.
As a family we have a lot of answered prayers to praise God for and requests that we continue to pray for. A couple of years ago I started a prayer journal myself using the book Praying in Color by Sybil MacBeth.
She now has a new book specifically for kids, but I do not have a copy of this book yet.
This is a great exercise in prayer to do with your kids. We had so much fun creating the pictures and talking about prayer.
Here are a few pictures from the day.
How do you focus on prayer with your kids?
