Kids today are constantly being told by the world exactly who they are, read should be, and even more so what they aren’t.
As Christian parents, it’s our role to raise up these tiny disciples knowing who God says they are because that is true.
What are Biblical Affirmations for Kids
Christian affirmations are positive and encouraging statements that are based on biblical truth, scripture, paired down for kids to easily read and over time, memorize.
How to Introduce Affirmations to Kids
If you already have a family devotion or quiet time, this might be the perfect time to introduce affirmations to your child. These could become part of your routine either at the beginning or at the end of your reading for the day.
It’s also a great idea to print this list of kids’ affirmations and hang them in a place they will see frequently. This could be the fridge, kitchen, or bedroom.
We also like incorporating affirmations with kids into their own daily routine, before bed. Since bedtime has a pretty rhythmic flow to it, adding the additional step of speaking out loud these positive affirmations with your child will help them get into the habit of affirming themselves daily.
