Night Night Blessings
(This post contains affiliate links. Read my full disclosure.)
A mid-sized board book with fun, illustrations, Night Night Blessings by Amy Parker is a great way to teach your children to thank God for their blessings each night as they go to bed.
Written as a prayer, it thanks God “for the blessings You give from ‘Good morning!’ to ‘Night night.’” My girls loved the muted pictures (by Marijan Ramljak) and wanted to read it over and again.
As someone who is counting the “one thousand gifts”, I’m glad for a book that will help encourage my children to do the same thing. I also appreciated the way the book encourages them to count both physical and spiritual blessings—sunshine, pancakes, giggling, kittens, toys, family, and stars.
The only thing that I thought made it a little hard to read was how it only rhymed somewhat, and just when you were expecting there to be some cadence there wasn’t! (I guess I’d have preferred straight prose to semi-poetry.)
But all in all, Night Night Blessings is a book we will all continue to enjoy reading at night night time—from our almost 4-year-old down to the 6-month-old little guy.
