Prayers for Children/ Families
Prayer Board: Use a 3-fold presentation board, sticky notes and crayons to have  your children draw or write prayers of "Thank you!" "Please" or "Help!" to God. Then post the prayers on the board so you and your child (or family) can pray the prayers at dinnertime or bedtime or a time of your choosing.

Bedtime or Morning Prayer: 
Lord Jesus: Hear me, steer me, be near me. You are my King. Amen.
