Quiet Time Journal for Kids

One thing I really love about this time of year is the chance to make it all new. Sure, you can make changes anytime, but the close of a year always seems to prompt us to re-evaluate.

A few years ago I made a significant change in my life. I participated in a support group for people wishing to make it a habit to get up before their family every day and start their day with God’s Word. Just this one little thing changed everything for me. I became more faithful in reading the Word, I was a much happier mom, and surprisingly my to-do list was much easier to accomplish.

With this in mind, I have encouraged my children to create similar habits when it comes to their time in God’s Word. We generally do more in-depth studies during the school day, but I still wanted them to get into the habit of reading the Word, praying, and journaling about their experience.

One thing I noticed quickly was that they got tired of the same study method. Even with a really open-ended one, they just didn’t enjoy the same thing day after day. So I began creating notebook pages for them, with methods that would rotate on a daily basis.

This free printable journal is a combination of our favorite journal pages all wrapped up into one. I love that it encourages them to dig deep and think about the Scripture in different ways. There are 7 pages in all.

Are you looking for ways to encourage your children to have a better, more consistent quiet time? My Time with God is a quiet time journal for kids that has 4 unique study methods, prayer records, blessings and more! Make your mornings easier and your time with God sweeter!

 

Quiet Time Journal for Kids

Cover page—>>

This year I’m going to bind the notebook with our binding machine. I will make this page out of cardstock so it is extra sturdy. You could also create your journal in a 3-ring binder. The cover page could go in the slot on the front and you could then decide as you go how many of each page you might need.

Blessings and Favorites page–>>

The next page is a monthly page. I will print out 12 of these (back to back, so only 6 pieces of paper). The purpose of these pages is to record our blessings, jot down favorite verses, and even note some ongoing prayer needs. I really enjoy looking back to see what God did several months ago!

Study pages–>>

There are 4 different study pages. Each one has different questions to encourage students to think about Scripture and dig deep into their lives. I plan to print these off back to back so that my children can rotate through a different one each day. However, you could do several weeks on one study type and then several weeks on the next. It’s totally up to you.

Bonus Notes page–>>

The final element to the journal is a blank page. I thought this would be nice for the kids to be able to jot down any notes or extra things they think of. I intend to make a few to stick in the back. Of course, it’s wide open, so use it as you please!

    Love these study pages. I have 5 kids ages 10 – 16 that I have been trying to encourage to get into God’s word on their own every day. I think these pages will be a huge help.

    Thanks so much for making these because I know that I will use them for myself because other Prayer Journals I have seen are just too deep for me, and this one you make at a kid level which quite honestly works much better for me.

    I am so excited about these pages … I know you prepared this for your children, but I am actually going to do this for myself!!! I, similar to your posting above, have wanted to make significant changes in my life when it comes to God’s Word and I just haven’t been successful so far. I am hoping with added prayer and these pages 2015 will be different for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I will be subscribing immediately!

    Last week we hosted a kid camp and I am so thankful God led me to your site. I had been wanting to create a journal for the kids to do a daily log of the teachings and what God was speaking to their hearts and let me tell you, they all loved the layout, and I noticed how easy it made it for them to put their thoughts into paper.

    We took kids from 6 – 18 years old and some of them struggle a little bit on a blank sheet of paper. My daughter is one of them and ever since we came back from the retreat, she grabs her journal when we have quiet time and she journals away happy.

    Praise God for what he is doing through you and may he continue to use you for the glory of his Kingdom.

    I just purchased your book of “things to teach kids about quiet time” and we will be implementing it as a lesson plan in our kids ministry.

    Here is a recap of our retreat ?

    Hi! I love these pages! I am very excited to implement them with n my own children!

    I also teach 1st and 2nd grade sunday school. I have a mix of reading and learning to read. I also have a mix of backgrounds–some in a strong Christian home and some in a home with one Christian parent or no Christian parents.

    Are there any recommendations you can make to help my early readers/writers do something similar. I have tried having them draw, but one child in particular hates drawing and a few others don’t understand and draw purple elephants or monsters. I really wish I had a good way to engage them a little more.

      For the little ones, I really prefer to talk about it and have them talk to me about what we read or learned. It goes much farther when you remove the writing/drawing barrier.

    I very rarely comment on blogs, but I had to write and tell you THANK YOU for compiling these amazing 87 pages of awesomeness!!! I got here because of the kids’ journal pages I found on your pinterest, but I ended up printing the entire workbook and I love LOVE all of the ideas and activities in it, especially the tips for spiritual growth and connectedness as a family. I am going to start using these with my boys (7 and 11) immediately, and I just HAD to tell you thank you so so much for all of the time you invested into each and every page, I can feel your heart’s love for God in every line you wrote, I can tell you it wasn’t just a “project” for you, it goes deeper than that. May God bless you 10 fold for this gift you have presented my family (and others) with!

Lasting Impression on My Entire Family

I wanted to write to encourage you and say, "THANK YOU!" I've been following your blog for years, and you have made such a lasting impression on my entire family. We've purchased many of your Bible Studies and a few other wonderful homeschooling resources, all of which we absolutely love!!! Still, I believe the greatest compliment I can give you is that because of your Bible Studies that my children and I have completed together, my oldest daughter has been so inspired, she's started creating her own daily devotionals, modeled after the ones you've made. They are absolutely precious (in her own little 12-year old way), and she prints one off each morning for our entire family to complete during our quiet time. When she finishes her first "study" (which is on the Fruits of the Spirit by the way), she plans to print a set to hand out to her small group at church. To see my daughter take ownership of her faith in this way and to bless others with a deeper study of God's Word is a precious gift to me, and I can't thank you enough for your inspiration and positive influence!

Monthly Scripture Pages

Thank you for creating the monthly Scripture pages... especially the KJV one! It's the only Bible I use and hardly any bloggers use it on their stuff.

Like Being With a Girlfriend

Thanks for sharing a piece of your family. Your blog is, honestly, the only one I have ever subscribed to. I feel like I'm on the phone with a girlfriend every time I read your words. I love it! I often find myself spending hours clicking from one post to the next telling myself, "okay, one more and then go to bed!" It's all just so helpful!

Fabulous, heart-felt resources for parents!

Thank you, Kim, for continuing to offer such fabulous and heart-felt resources to us parents! I was not raised in a Christian home and feel like I’m floundering in the dark trying to raise my children to know and love the Lord. Your emails and bible studies are my lifeline! You should write a parenting manual!

May God continue to bless you and your family abundantly!
