We also discussed praying to thank Heavenly Father for our many blessings, and again the children thought of a long list of things that He has given us.
We discussed the special words we use in our prayers: Thee, Thou, Thy, and Thine. The children were very interested to learn that these are special ways to say you and yours and show our love and respect for Heavenly Father.
We made lists of things that we could thank Heavenly Father for and things that we could ask for in our next personal or family prayer. Then we colored prayer charts to keep track of whether we have said our morning and evening prayers (see attachment below). The girls were relieved that they did not have to have a boy on their charts!
