mods please move if this is in the worng place .

what prayers do you say at night ? and what prayers have you taught your childeren to say at night .

Currently DS and i say " now i lay me down to sleep , i pray the lord my soul to keep,( then i forget the words and make up the ending like -) and wake me in the morning light amen "

and theres a similar one :

i know there is on which says " now i lay me down to sleep , i pray the lord my soul to keep , and if i shall die before i wake , i pray for you my soul to take"

now i havent taught DS that because saying it hurts , kinda like if i say it , it might come true ,and the though of DS's life being taken while he sleeps is heart wrenching , and i think getting a 3 yr old to talk about dying is scary, like hes too young to know about it , but in a way i think they need to learn about death , just not in a nightly prayer as the last thing they say before they sleep , kwim ?


So , do you have any happy prayers that your childern say at night ? made up ones or popular ones ?

DH is trying to teach " our father " but he doesnt remember the words

looking forward to see how others teadch prayer to kiddies
