About this Bible story

At bedtime, kids can learn about the importance of prayer through the story of praying at bedtime. Psalm 4:8 reminds us, 'In peace I will lie down and sleep.' It's a comforting lesson for little ones as they settle down for the night.

β€œIn peace I will lie down and sleep.”

While kids color, ask them, 'What do you pray for at bedtime?' Highlight the moment when the child in the story is preparing for sleep, reminding them of God's presence. You’ll need basic coloring supplies and perhaps a follow-up activity where they can share their prayers with the group.

More about these coloring pages

Last Tuesday evening, my 7-year-old colored one of the pages featuring a child praying before bed. She asked me why prayer is important, which led to a sweet talk about trusting God. This praying at bedtime coloring page for kids includes 6 adorable images, like a cozy bedroom scene and a child with folded hands. As we colored, I reminded her of the Bible verse, 'In peace I will lie down and sleep.' (Psalm 4:8) and how it connects to our nightly prayers. We talked about how God watches over us as we sleep and how prayer can bring comfort. After coloring, we said our own bedtime prayers together, making it a special family moment.
