Teaching your children to pray is a weighty responsibility. Our team at The Garden Cartoon wants to help you train your children with the Word in any way we can! This is what prayer time in our lesson plan looks like.

Pray with your Garden Buddy or Garden Group. God loves hearing what is going on in your life.

• Have a group prayer where students share needs or pair up as Garden Buddies and pray for each other.
• Prayer ideas:
• Ask God to forgive us for our grumpiness
• Ask God to help us be kind and helpful to others
• Pray for needs for family and friends
• Remind your buddies that God is the One Who loves us most of all. He wants us to share our needs with Him.

Thank God for all He has done in your life and all the ways that He has blessed you!

• End Prayer Time with Praise. Have Buddies shout out things that they are thankful for. Start them out with some examples:
• I am thankful for friends
• I am thankful for my family
• I am thankful for how kind Jesus is to me
