Prayer Cards for Children {free printable!}
Reciting poetry, and prayers, develops little minds towards a love for language and memorization. I created these little cards in hopes that I would have a simple, yet meaningful, way to bring God and words into our hectic daily lives. We are trying to memorize at least one verse and poem per week in our home preschool, and now we are adding a prayer to the mix.
Children must be taught how to pray, and we, their parents and teachers, must model for them! And what better resource to use than the wisdom of old: Jesus wrote The Lord’s Prayer, after all. And some others are also hundreds of years old!
I intended for these prayers to become special to my precious ones, but instead, they have truly become a blessing to me. I remember some of these from my childhood and from reading with my children, but others are new (but old classics!). I love these Prayer Cards and I hope you do too!! So even if you don’t have children, I hope, and pray, that these will be a blessing to you as well! I intend to make a second set when I find the time — there are so many amazing prayers out there!

We laminated our cards (using these laminating sheets) and we use a binder ring to hold the prayer cards for children together. These cards can stay by your night stand, read in the evenings, kept in your purse, or put in the refrigerator! I hope they bless you and your child today.

I love these Amy! I’m just setting up my homeschool for my two boys aged 4 and age 1. What a gift to me to not have to reinvent the wheel. I wonder if you would consider providing an editable version of this? In our Presbyterian church we say “Maker” instead of “Creator” when we recite the Apostle’s Creed. I just wanted to keep it consistent for my son. Also, would you consider making one for the Nicene Creed?
You mentioned in a few posts using My Father’s World. I know I want to go the classical route, but like you we use a lot of Montessori principles now. How does that compare to Classical Conversations? I am leaning that way at first because of the opportunity to have a co-op type situation, but I’m not sure. Thank you so much, you are a blessing!
THANK YOU
Thank you they are wonderful!
Thanks so much. Using these with my children at home and at church this Lenten season!

These are so cute. Thank you for making them and sharing them.
