"Fresh and imaginative ways for kids to pray using all of their senses. Prayer does not have to involve silence, sitting still, and solemnity. It can be active and engaging, especially essential for kids, who often enjoy movement and creativity. In an easy to use format with illustrations, the author connects scripture and Biblical characters to dynamic prayer practices such as wrestling, singing, breathing and dancing. Praying in sign language, by tracing a labyrinth, with bandaids, while planting a seed, eating something delicious, or riding a bike-these fun ideas are just some of the ways wiggly, tactile, and nonverbal kids will learn to reach out in love, gratitude, and need to God"--
