Pray’in/Praiz’en Kids

by Andrea Y. Shelton

Do you want to teach your children and other children how to pray, but don’t know how? Wouldn’t it be great to have a guide to teach your children or students about prayer? When children know how to pray, it helps them to develop a relationship and intimacy with the Lord. Prayer can help children become a person of purpose, character, strength, and confidence.

Pray’in/Praiz’en Kids is a prayer curriculum that utilizes the armor of God (Ephesians 6:11-18), confessions, scriptures, crafts, and character development stories to teach children about prayer. The multi-sensory curriculum integrates proven methods of teaching and instruction.

Shelton’s prayer curriculum has been used at youth camps and in a home school program to teach children from different faith persuasions about prayer and character development. The curriculum stimulates a genuine desire in children to pray, praise, and grow in their relationship with the Lord.
