Encourage the children and families in your ministry to start their school year with focused, intentional prayer. This color prayer journal for kids includes at least 8 days of color-themed prayer prompts for the beginning of the school year, covering topics including hard work, safety, boldness, light, growth, peace, friends, and their teacher(s).

Each page of the prayer journal includes a color from an 8-count Crayola box (crayons, markers, or colored pencils), scripture to read, a prayer prompt on a specific topic relating to the color and scripture, and space for kids to draw, color, or doodle their prayer. See a preview of the journal here.

Kids can complete this prayer journal all at once on the night before school starts, throughout the week before school starts (1 page a day), or throughout the first week of school (1 page a day). They can complete the color prayer prompts in any order, and we’ve even included a fun Color Prayer Spinner kids can use to help them decide which color to pray! They can then use the prayer spinner throughout the whole school year.

You can print copies and distribute to your families or share with your families via email or online through a password-protected site. This printable is intentionally black-and-white so kids can color it to make it their own + help parents and leaders save printer ink. We also recommend including a brad/split pin and a paper clip for kids to make their Color Prayer Spinner, and adding a box of crayons, colored pencils, or markers, really makes it a fun and meaningful back-to-school gift!

Encourage parents to pray these color-themed prayers for their kids with our coordinating Color Back-To-School Blessing Cards!

    Very well written, simple, and effective. It makes prayer and talking about prayer a fun exercise, rather than an awkward invitation. I especially love the acronym for pray, it really helps to spell out what prayer is all about. I love this resource, and my midweek kids love it as well.

    So well written! Lends itself well to beautiful teaching moments and great conversation!

    This was such a great addition to add to their backpacks this year. A very creative way to engage them in prayer and color while they’re doing it.
