Episode 2: Teaching Your Child to Pray

Does teaching your preschooler how to pray feel overwhelming? Whether talking to God is a regular part of your life or you’re learning to pray, too, we want to take the pressure off! Prayer is simply talking to God as if he’s your best friend. We want to encourage and equip you to teach your preschooler that they can talk to him anytime, anywhere, about anything. It’s all part of your child growing, developing, and learning more about who God is.

In this episode, Kendra Fleming shares the “why” behind the importance of prayer at this age and offers practical tips for establishing routines and forming new habits. We want to help you guide your kids toward praying for things that are on their hearts and minds. This teaches them that they have a connection to a God who loves them, made them, and cares about them.

Here are some of the questions we talk about in this episode. These are great for helping your preschooler kick-start conversations with God:

What did you see today that was really “wow” and amazing?
What was something really good that happened today?
Who is someone you know that needs help?
Who helped you today?
Who was fun today?
What is something bad that happened today?
What is something that made you really sad today?
