Children can develop a closer relationship with God during Lent. Lent activities revolve around prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.
Here are a few Lenten activities you may want to try:
1. Make a prayer jar.
Have children write a prayer each day, and place it in the jar.
You can add a prayer choice board...
Or a use a prayer box instead of a jar...
2. Make Lenten crosses.
Gather small sticks and tie them together with string. You can even use the crosses to make a Lenten garden!
3. Participate in a Lenten fast.
Brainstorm a list of items that children could possibly give up during Lent (electronics, cookies, candy, etc.) Have students choose one to give up.
4. Give to others.
This may be a good time to sort out clothes and toys that are outgrown to donate to charity. Children may be able to help with a service project during lent. They could also help clean out the pantry or go shopping to choose items to donate to a food pantry.
Choose an activity to complete during Lent, and watch the children grow closer to God!
