Bedtime Prayer for Children

Dear God,

it's me just here to pray, and talk to you about my day.
To thank you for the fantastic things that made me smile and laugh.
To let you know the bad things, that made me sad, that I found hard.
To tell you about the boring things, that made me cross or grumpy,
and share with you my worries, which made me quiet and sulky.
I know, no matter how I feel, you love me still the same.
So, help me sleep and have good dreams, ready for another day.

Amen.
