Prayer Bible Lesson Plan IdeasTeaching Preschoolers to Communicate with God in Sunday School
Prayer is a time to talk with God and build a relationship with Him. Teach your preschoolers why prayer is important with these ideas and suggestions for a bible lesson.
The ideas below may help you when teaching your preschoolers a lesson about the importance of prayer in a Christian life. Feel free to use these ideas to supplement your current curriculum or to make your own lesson. Story Suggestions
Game IdeasGod Hears MeDirections: To teach your children that God hears our prayers, play this game. Gather items and place them in a bag. You might choose things such as:
Stand up and have the children close their eyes. Pick an item from the bag and play it for the children. Be sure to turn your back so that peeking eyes will not wander. Place the item back in the bag and ask the class if they can guess what they heard. If they were wrong, play it again. If they were right, move on to the next object. Prayer Circle TimeDirections: Have the children sit in a circle on the floor or on chairs. Explain to them that prayer is about talking with God. Encourage each child to go around the circle and say one thing they are thankful for. That is generally the easiest way to teach a child how to prayer through thanksgiving. Teach them how to fold their hands, bow their heads, and close their eyes while they are listening to the other children, and when they say their prayer. If a child does not want to say anything, do not force him or her. SnacksA good snack for this lesson would be: Large sourdough pretzels and a juice box. While the children are eating their pretzels, you can explain to them how the pretzel is a symbol of praying children. The story can be found here. Another good snack idea for this lesson would be: Cinnamon Sticky Buns - "...Give us this day our daily bread..." Ingredients:
