Prayer Bible Craft Template – Helping Children Pray
We know prayer is important, and the biggest reason is this: because Jesus prayed! Even the disciples noticed, and asked him to teach them how.
This craft gently helps children pray, because young minds can sometimes struggle to know what to say. Don’t use it to “tell” a child the words. Instead, hold up a picture and ask, “Here’s a house. Can you think of something to ask or thank God for to do with a house? Or maybe you just want to tell him something?”
It’s a simple, lovely way to show children that prayer is just talking with God.
Luke 11:1

Instructions
- Colour in and cut out pieces.
- Glue hand together using the tabs.
- Create your own prayer prompts – e.g. your family, friends, etc.
- Use this craft in creative ways. Some suggestions:
- During family worship, or opening/closing Sabbath each member of the family can choose a prayer prompt for their prayer. Remember, that prayer is opening the heart to God, like we do with good friends, so this is a good time to model sharing what’s on your heart rather than just a “prayer request”, or “thanks”.
- Encourage personal daily prayer every morning and night. Ask them what prayer prompt they used.
- Ask your child how could they use this craft to help their prayer life and see what they come up with!
