Short Prayers For Children

Most of these lovely short prayers for children are simple verses that children should find easy to remember and be able to recite with little problem.

These selected blessings have a delightful rhyming rhythm to the verses, which makes them fun to say out loud. A few are a somewhat longer poems that a parent can read to a child until they're old enough to be able to read the words themselves.

A lovely gift idea for older children who can read is to print out a favorite blessing as a bookmark or nicely decorated laminated sheet that the child can look at while reciting the verse.
