This first-of-its-kind resource will forever change the way kids prayer - and how adults try to teach them to do it.
This is prayer that makes sense to kids. One minute a day will do. Any time of the day will work. Drawing with markers or crayons is h alf the prayer; the other half is carrying the visual memories throughout the day. Ages 5-11.
Praise for Praying in Color:
"Just as Julia Cameron, in the Artist's Way, showed the hardened Harvard businessman he had a creative artist lurking within, MacBeth makes it astonishingly clear that anyone with a box of colors and some paper can have a conversation with God."

A Positvie Way to Grow Closer to GodAug 16, 2009
Praying in Color for Kids takes a skill that seems to come naturally to children and uses it to help them develop a new or stronger prayer life. Children (as well as many adults) doodle to help them remain focused on a task. Sybil MacBeth has taken this skill and demonstrated simple ways to use drawing while praying. A vital part of this concept is that it does not require talent in the area of art. Instead, simple shapes and color can be used to design a web of prayer. This book is a wonderful tool for children and a great introduction to Ms. MacBeth's adult version of the same title. It would be appropriate to give to a child without adult assistance but would also lend itself to a more organized setting such as Sunday School or a prayer group. I will purchase this title again to give as a gift.

Amazing technicolor prayers!Apr 17, 2009
Prayer can be in many forms, but praying in color is a wonderfully creative concept. I bought the original book for myself and used it. As the children's director for my church, I adapted it for my children last summer and they loved it. You can imagine my delight when the author actually published a version for children (which could be just as easily used with adults.) I highly recommend this book for anyone who struggles with wandering thoughts during prayer, doesn't know how to pray for others,has a hard time praying or just wants to enlarge their prayer life. In my book - this book is a "must!"

As good as the originalFeb 04, 2009
I have loved and benefited from the original book, Praying in Color. I have seen a galley of the kids' edition and it is super - kids will love it - and I am doing some of the things suggested for kids to do. My grandsons, ages 7 and 10 are going to like what they read here - they already pray in color and I know this book will deepen their prayer life!
