From the same author that wrote Bible Stories that end with a Hug, comes a cute book that helps you devote your prayer time, with your little one, to a certain subject or thought right before bed. It can help direct your time that might actually turn into a small teaching time.
Each prayer is devoted to a certain topic that is relevant to your child’s walk with God. Such topics are: self-control, seeking the Lord, health and strength, obeying parents, and more. It’s nice know that if my child is having a rough day or might have a question, I can use these prayers to help address that issue in a way they will be able to understand easily.
If you are familiar with Bible Stories that end in a Hug, then you know there is a format for these books that works really well. The prayers are broken down into different sections. The sections are:
- A Bible Verse related to the prayer
- A Snuggle time that has a short story going along the theme of that prayer.
- Bedtime Bible Thought that helps reenforce everything you have been reading to that point
- My hug-a-bye Prayer which is the prayer that ends the entire time.
My kids loved this book, especially my 4 year old, since the illustrations caught her eye and the prayers were short enough that they held her attention without being overwhelming. It's a great book for the preschool age group, but probably a little boring for the older kids.
