Read a Psalm Together
Apr 13, 2026 · By Psalms for Kids
You don't need to be a Bible expert to read the Psalms with your kids. You just need five quiet minutes and a little curiosity.
Try this: pick a psalm and read it slowly out loud. Find one line you love. Say it back to God as a prayer: “Thank You that Your word is a light for me.” That's it. That's the whole thing.
Do it again tomorrow with a new psalm. Little by little, God's songs become part of your family's story, a lamp for every step.
“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”
