Devotions are note just for youth or adults. Children also can have devotions. Think about it for a  minute, children also need the love of the Lord, in the form of devotions. So, here are some helpful hints:

• Only do a short Biblical message (no longer than 10 minutes).
• Suggestion-  The children can give a life application or life experience., such as, something that happened during the week. NOTE:  It has to relate to the Bible message.
• If you have 12 year-old's in a group, they perhaps can help with the devotion.
• Encourage the Church/parents to buy the children a devotional Bible.

 When to do a devotion...:

a. At the beginning of a children's programme.

b. At the beginning of a Church service.

c.  Maybe at a children's Bible study.
