Are you hoping to help your children learn to pray for others?
Prayer is a practice that even adults struggle with. Sometimes keeping a list is a great way to remember prayer requests, and to focus on others. For kids, a list during prayer can be a little overwhelming. Prayer cards for kids are a great way to help your child learn to pray for others in a way that feels manageable! It never hurts if the cards are adorable, either.
Prayer Cards for Kids
These printable prayer cards have twelve cute designs:

Ways to Use Prayer Cards for Kids
Prayer Cards for Kids can be used a number of ways. Here are a few ideas:
- At home, have your child choose someone each day to pray for. Write the person’s name on the card. On the back, brainstorm items to pray about. Save the card after praying and use the prayer cards on a rotation, working through one each day.
- Fill all the cards out yourself. Place them in a stack on the table, and take turns at each meal praying for someone on the card.
- In a group, have each child fill out a card with their own prayer requests. Collect the cards and hand them back out so that each child has someone else’s card. Ask children to pray for the requests on the card for a week.
- Share other ideas in the comments!
How to Print Prayer Cards for Kids
I often get asked how to print Thinking Kids resources. Here’s my very best advice. Take it and adapt it for your own good uses.
- Sometimes readers are concerned about using colored ink. If this is the case for you, there should be a setting on your printer that allows you to print in black and white. Printing in grayscale will still use some color, but it will come out prettier than black and white.
- Print these cards on duplex (back-to-back or double-sided). You’ll want to flip on the SHORT edge for these. You should be able to change the settings for this in the Properties tab of your printer box once you download and tell your computer to print.
- I recommend printing on white cardstock so the cards will be more durable and the back won’t show through on the front. This is my very favorite cardstock: Neenah Premium Cardstock.
- If you plan to rotate the cards to use at meals or during your family devotional time, consider laminating them so they will last longer.
- Let your kids write in pen! Frixion erasable pens show up well and erase perfectly. I use them on my planner everyday and I love them. They give kids a fun way to use bright colors–and they still allow room for mistakes.

Sweet!
I was just thinking the prayer card could possibly also be given to the person prayed for with a note of encouragement or your prayer for them with pertinent verses on the back. Or as a way for them to express prayer needs they wanted you to pray for. Hmmm… I can see myself making an adult’s version of these.
God bless you!

LOVE these little prayer cards. It sparked an idea for our homeschooling group !! Perhaps have a class on prayer with elementary kids on prayer! You’ve got my mental juices flowing! Thanks for the freebie and also the giveaway offer!

This would be a huge blessing, for a number of reasons, bills, car needs fixing, Christmas. Thanks for the chance!
This giveaway would bless our family because my daughter & I are both disabled, so my husband takes care of our daughter (etc.) It’s been hard for us to make income for almost 7 years.
The prayer cards are really neat!!!
This giveaway would help in paying off our vehicle, or with household repairs. Thank you!
This would bless my family to be able to pay off our van.
Winning would help me free up funds and hopefully let my husband relax a bit. It’s been a rough year and I can see the stress taking its toll.
What a great giveaway! It would bless my family in lots of little ways… some healthier treats for the holidays, the ability to give more to some ministries we support, we might even be able to put some of it toward getting a “new” used piano to replace the one all of our kids practice on (even with it’s multiple broken keys… ha, ha.) 🙂
The giveaway money would be a great blessing as I am getting ready to move so that would really help with expenses!
Wow! This PayPal giveaway would be such a huge blessing to our family!
Our budget is VERY, VERY tight this year because of job loss and medical expenses. This money would help us so much to provide Christmas for our four kiddos. Thank you for offering this giveaway!
Thank you so much for putting this on! Our family has been through the ringer this year and we would not have made it through without our amazing church family. It would be great to be able to do something special for those who have walked beside us this year to let them know how much we appreciate them.
Honestly I know we could use it for many things, but if we won my husband and I would have to pray what to do with it. Thanks for the chance, and may it go to whom needs it the most. Have a great day!
Thanks for such a generous giveaway! It would definitely help with unexpected bills. 🙂

What a great blessing this would be for our family! We have 5 children ranging from K-12 and it would help out tremendously!
What a neat way to encourage prayer time with your children. We have started using prayer cards too and have found that they are helpful in reminding us of the people that have asked us to pray for them.
Our family dies a Christmas program each year at many nursing/ assisted living homes. It would help with traveling/gas Mohegan.
This would give our family of six a chance to visit my parents and kids grandparents, who are on the opposite side of US.
These cards are amazing. Winning the giveaway would bless our family immensely. We are struggling quite a bit financially so this would bless our socks off big time. Thank you.

Of course I would love to win $500. But if someone needs to win it more, I’d be happy for them to win. My husband had to move across the country to get a job in TN. If we win the money will let us be able to go see him for Christmas! That would be a true blessing!
I love the idea of using these prayer cards with my children. Thanks so much for sharing them, and for the great giveaway opportunity!
I like the idea of these prayer cards! I feel like I’m struggling sometimes to get my kids to think about people other than themselves, so hopefully having something to “fill out” helps to really get their head/heart thinking more about what others need, and also gives them a moment to think of how truly blessed they already are.
This would help us be able to travel to visit our family for Christmas. 🙂
This giveaway would be a blessing as we are a single income family, with a large extended family. It would help in buying gifts and for curriculum needs through the year.
This is so exciting! What an awesome giveaway! I love the prayer cards.
Your prayer cards is such a sweet idea. Since I use paypal to pay for homeschool co-ops and other homeschool classes (which usually comes out of the little bit of money that I earn), having a big chunk of money in paypal would bless us for a long time!
Thanks for the giveaway and for the prayer cards!
It has been a tough year due to medical expenses—winning this giveaway would be a blessing. Thank you for offering it. 🙂
We are planning a prayer challenge for kids and their parents in January and I think the cards are perfect for the classrooms that month. The $500 would be a blessing for our family to help with our homeschool and to bless our friends and family.
Well, I just discovered a part of my vacuum is broken and 2 of our computers but the dust recently. This would definitely lift a burden from our family!
This would bless our family by helping out with funds while I take a break from teaching piano lessons after our 3rd baby boy is born in January. Thank you!
Thank you for the giveaway. What a wonderful blessing for someone! If we win it will go toward dental bills. Thanks!
Winning this money would be good as I am getting ready to transition to another job and not sure how long it will be for a first paycheck.
Thanks so much for hosting this giveaway. I know it will be a huge help to someone’s Christmas.
We are looking at another military move in the upcoming year. The unexpected expenses from that and another chance to show the children we tithe from all gifts in our lives would be wonderful.
Awesome giveaway! It would be a huge blessing to win.
Awesome
What a generous giveaway! I always appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for running a great blog!
Hi Danika! I am logged in to my account but can’t seem to figure out how to download the dividers for the prayer box or the other sets of cards? I just printed the new ones about praying for our world, but the other links I don’t know how to get to them!??
Hi! If you’re logged in, you just need to go to the very bottom of the post, past the last graphic. The link to the cards is at the very end.
