Prayer Bracelet (Young Women’s or Activity Days)

Filed Under: Kids Crafts

Make a sweet little prayer bracelet to help you remember to do the simple things; morning prayer, evening prayer, scripture study, and write in your journal.

Activity Days Prayer Bracelet

I was looking for a fun activity to make with the 8-11 year old girls that I worked with at church, at our Activity Days program, and stumbled upon these darling bracelets!  We made these last year and it’s fun to see that many of them still have their bracelets! These aren’t limited to those of the LDS faith or the 8-11 age group, either. The sweet reminders stand for things that many (of all different faiths) strive to do on a daily basis—no matter what your age.

There are 4 sets of letter beads that stand for 4 things to remember to do daily:

MP= morning prayer

EP= evening prayer

SS= scripture study

WJ= write in journal

I purchased wire memory bracelet rings and beads from Oriental Trading. Before the activity I bent one end of the wire ring over and separated the letter beads into little baggies for the girls. At the activity, I set out bowls of colorful beads for the girls to sort through.

They had SO MUCH FUN putting their bracelets together and reading President Monson’s last conference address about reading the scriptures. (This passes off “Read a recent conference address given by the prophet. Decide what you can do to follow the prophet, and do it.” in Learning & Living the Gospel in the Faith in God Booklet).

A darling activity that was both spiritual and creative. My favorite kind! These memory wires are awesome. The bracelet just slips onto the wrist without a fastener of any kind. As much as my girls love making bracelets at home, having a small stash of the memory wires on hand might be a good idea.

This kid knows a good thing when he sees it. Anyti This kid knows a good thing when he sees it. Anytime my camera and tripod go up, he’s right there waiting. Today we made our favorite green smoothie. It’s all about balance—-just kidding. We all know that’s a lie. I have like 10 healthy recipes on my site and 800 breads and desserts. 😂

Tip: when buying produce, buy extra to freeze. I buy an extra pineapple, an extra package of grapes, an extra bunch of bananas and an extra bag of spinach and freeze them for smoothies. I slice everything up and freeze it on baking sheets then bag it up. It makes it easy to grab a handful to toss into a blender. You can freeze entire bags of spinach too and add a handful to smoothies. I always blend my spinach and water first then add the rest of the fruit. No little spinach chunks in the smoothie that way. 🙌🏻

This cutie is working on a hat for her big brother This cutie is working on a hat for her big brother for Christmas. We love this little set of round knitting looms. A great project to work on during Christmas break. She’s making herself a pink one after Christmas. We bought several colors of bulky yarn at Walmart for $2.97 each. Each skein makes 1 hat. Linked in stories. ❤️

Tomorrow is all about gingerbread cookies for Sant Tomorrow is all about gingerbread cookies for Santa (although the Santa who comes to our house prefers sugar cookies. He can share these with Mrs. Claus). Ruby has them all picked out—-gingerbread boys, gingerbread girls, and ninja-bread cookies. Should be fun. Had to go out and get more molasses and it wasn’t easy to find! Everyone else must be making gingerbread, too!

Gnomes and llamas made their way to our Christmas Gnomes and llamas made their way to our Christmas cookies this year and I’m wondering why we didn’t use them before! So cute ($1 at Target). My 9 year old decorated most of the cookies that you see in this photo. I taught her how to use a piping bag, a star tip, and a round tip last year and she hit the ground running. Check out our stories for 6 cookie tutorials for kids using the same frosting tips!
