ENGAGE IN EVERYDAY MOMENTS TOGETHER

Morning Time

When you go into your child’s room, cuddle them and say: "Good morning, [child's name]! Today, we are going to [name places you will go], and wherever we go, God is always with you and God is always with me!"

Drive Time

While on the go, take turns naming places as you pass them (or think of them). Each time someone names a place, ask, "Is God with us at (name of place)?" And then answer together, "Yes, God is always with me!"

Cuddle Time

Cuddle with your child and ask them to help you pray by naming places: "Dear God, thank You for being with me when I go to [name of place]. (Keep going as long as your child can name places.) God, it makes us feel very loved to know that You are always with us."

Bath Time

Add bubbles to bath time. Help your child use the bubbles to make a lion's mane around their face. As your child pretends to be a lion, talk about how, in the Bible, Daniel was put in a den with real lions. But God was with Daniel! God sent an angel to shut the lions' mouths.
