We’re Learning… I can pray to God.
Bible Story: Daniel and the Lions ● Daniel 6
As a family, read “Daniel and the Lions” (Daniel 6) from a children’s Bible. (CLICK HERE for children’s Bible recommendations.)
After reading the Bible story, complete the activity together.
Coloring Page Activity:
Supplies Needed: coloring page, crayons
- Print off the coloring page on regular paper.
- Give your toddler the coloring page, and set out the crayons.
- After they finish coloring, ask:
- “Who do you see on the page?” (Daniel)
- “Daniel loved God and prayed to Him. Can you pray to God too?” (yes)
- After the activity, say, “Great job! This picture will help us remember we can always pray to God! Who can pray to God?” Encourage your toddler to say, “I can pray to God!” Then lead your toddler in prayer:
“Dear God, thank You for loving us! We know You are powerful and strong. Please help us always remember we can trust You because You are more powerful than anything. We love You. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
