Little Angels Prayers For Every Day

Roma Downey (The Bible Series, Touched By An Angel) has written a new book for young children called Little Angels Prayers for Every Day. It features more than 50 simple prayers that you can pray with your child. Starting with good morning prayers and ending with bedtime prayers, the other prayers cover topics like thankfulness, praise, help, comfort, and praying for others. This is a good way to help train a child how to pray and to know that they can talk to God about anything, anytime. There are a few Bible verses that are relevant to prayer the book also!

Roma speaks about this and other Little Angels projects in the video below.
 
 

This is a boardbook that is easy for younger kids to handle as their parents help them read this book and teach them about prayer. The brightly colored illustrations by Lisa Reed are sure to captivate children and hold their attention. Of course I loved the content too. As children mature, of course it is hoped that they will learn to pray in their own words, but this is a great starting point for kids. I still remember memorizing both blessing "God is good, God is great..." and the bedtime prayer of "Now I lay me down to sleep..." and felt very privileged when I got to pray them. It started a habit of talking (praying) to God that continues to this day. I definitely recommend this for preschoolers on up to early elementary age.

Thank you Cindy for sharing this book. I have grandchildren that I would like to share it with. Roma has such a pleasant personality and sweet voice, I can hear her praying these children's prayers in my head. I wonder if she has thought about doing a cd/dvd to accompany the book.
