So what are prayer games? We're sharing 4 fun ways to pray using prayer games, and explaining why we think prayer can be fun!

One of my favorite ways to pray with kids is using our special prayer ball. It gets the kids a little bit of activity while spending time with Jesus. We use the prayer ball as a game. They all LOVE it! You can see from the photos my ball is getting old and worn. The letters are not quite as bright and clear as when I originally drew them onto the ball. This ball has had LOTS of use! All the kids sit or stand in a circle. I usually start the ball rolling, so to speak. I throw it up in the air…

This experiment with skittles is colourful, easy and makes a great statement about what we are asking God to do when we pray. In essence, prayers are a way of joining with God and asking him to have an effect on the world and situations around us.

I gave each team 5 apples and had them do their best to stack them. The team who had the most apples stacked at one minute won. You could also have a person from each team eat an…

We have been exploring the Lord's prayer as part of the 'Thy Kingdom Come' prayer wave between Ascension day and Pentecost. Here are some prayer stations we did yesterday at our local infant school. The children loved them! Our father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Deocrate the names of God to show how special they are. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Draw pictures of how you think God would like us to live and help people. Ask him to help us live like…
