The Prayer Experiment Notebook
For parents and Sunday school leaders
These prayer experiments show how anything can be used in speaking to God
Great for growing children's enthusiasm in prayer
There’s not just one way to pray. Or two. Or three. Or any number of ways.
Prayer is a place to experiment, to try new things, to speak to God with our own voice. And The Prayer Experiment Notebook exists to help young children learn just that. By showing that prayer is much more than putting your hands together and being quiet, it will bring excitement to kids learning to talk to God.
It includes prayer experiments such as
Play Dough Prayers
Paper Chain Prayer
Lego Prayers
Bubble-wrap worry prayers
Minecraft Church
Playing Card Prayer
As well as lots more!
With sections for individual children as well as groups, these activities can be done at home or in Church and School.
Tried and tested by children, and given a big thumbs up, The Prayer Experiment Notebook shows the creativity and adventure that can be found in prayer.
