I thought that this would be a neat tool to help my kinders learn to pray - no words needed and lots of colors and doodling involved - perfect!
I introduced praying in color a couple weeks ago. I started by praying in color and speaking my prayer out loud as I colored. I praised God, I prayed for ill friends, I prayed for each child in our class.
My kinders have never been so still and quiet as when I was doing this. (And this in in the middle of the afternoon!) I was astounded.
Then I turned on quiet piano music, gave them each a blank sheet of paper, and they got started.
They were quiet and on task the whole time.
Here are some of their prayers.
I am just blown away by their prayers. What a blessing this has been in our classroom already.
