Looking for a creative way to enjoy a conversation around God’s Word and some time in prayer with your daughter? If so, you may like to enjoy a Mother – Daughter Prayer Tea! Today’s beautiful free printable includes an invitation to give to your daughter, prayer cards to write on and use in prayer and some simple how-to’s to get you started! (If you are blessed with a son feel free to adapt the idea to enjoy with him! Perhaps you could share a Prayer Picnic together!)

Who? What? Cards

Who? What? Cards offer a simple, fun and creative way to pray for family and friends with your children. These cards can be found in the S&D prayer resource, titled My Family, My Friends.

Cardstock!

When printing the Who? What? Cards we recommend using colored cardstock. The cards will be more durable and the color adds a touch of fun!

Pray Again!

Who? What? Cards can be used over and over again. After you have used the cards in prayer with your children, shuffle the cards before putting them away. The next time you pray together, the requests and names will be in a different order and therefore you will most likely be praying different requests for each person! Enjoy!

My Thank-You Book

Do you have a baby, toddler or preschooler in your family? Or, are you a grandmother who is blessed with little grandchildren? If so, this video is for you! On this video I share how to make a little book that you can use with your child or grandchild as you help him/her begin to learn how to talk to God in prayer focusing on thanksgiving.

How to Make This Book:

Take and print pictures of people, places and things in your child’s world. Put the pictures into a little photo book (search online for photo book using the words “plastic photo book for 4×6 pictures”). Or, print the pictures onto paper and then staple the pieces of paper together to make a little book. Include a front and back cover, as well as an introduction letter and Bible verse if you like! (See download.)

Picture Ideas:

PEOPLE: Daddy, Mommy, brothers and sisters
PLACES: house, back yard, church, playground, library, swimming pool.
THINGS: bed, blanket, clothes, various toys, cup, book, crayons, food, car.

Have Older Children?

You can use this idea with older children in your family too! Your older children may like to take the pictures for their book and put the book together themselves. They may like to include pictures of friends, teachers, neighbors and missionaries.

I am looking forward to hearing from you as you enjoy using a My Thank-You Book with your child or grandchild!

Why the Teddy Bear?

The Teddy Bear in this video is letting you know that the idea shared is great for little children!

My Street

My Street is a creative way to pray for your neighbors with your children. Years ago, I enjoyed using this idea with our daughters and it is fun for me to share it with you!

Here are some more details related to the information about My Street that I share on the video:

Praying for Neighbors You Have Yet to Meet

You may not know every neighbor on your street by name. Pray for them anyway! God will know exactly who you are talking about and He cares about them deeply. Pray for the opportunity to meet them and eventually you will be able to add their name to the back of their house card.

Use a Pencil

It could be helpful to use a pencil when you write the names of your neighbors on the back of the houses. Then if a neighbor family moves, you can erase their names and write in your new neighbor’s names.

Free Download

This prayer activity is available for free. You are welcome to download and print a copy for free to use with your children.

Printed Copy

If you would prefer to obtain a printed copy of My Street it is available for purchase in the Daughters of Decision Shop.
