20 Homeschool Devotionals


I have been collecting a list of different morning devotionals. I have done my best to post them all here. If you have one you use and love please add it to the comments and I will add it to the list. 
These are meant to be for use in homeschool but of course can be used for any family scripture studies.
Scripture Reading Charts
1. Old Testament: Great for all ages
2. New Testament: Great for all ages
3. Book of Mormon: Great for all ages
4. Book of Mormon: This one is great for younger kids. One page per book in the Book of Mormon. This way it is broken down into smaller goals. 

Scripture Journals
5.Book of Mormon study pages: From the Red Headed Hostess so you know its good! (I would say good for upper Elementary age and up)
6. Book of Mormon Studies: Great for ages 10 and up or reading through the Book of Mormon for the first time on their own.
7. Scripture-study Sam: This is good for younger kids. Have them make the hand out and use each "situation" as a journal prompt, you can also have them practice handwriting by writing the scripture given in their journal. Ages 4-8
8. Illustrated Scriptures Journal: This is probably my favorite idea and can't wait to start doing it when the kids are older. She uses the illustrated scriptures that you can get from the distribution center. Each day you read the scripture under one picture then she has a journal prom to go along with it. She has also made some awesome printouts that you can print on labels and stick at the top of each journal entry. THIS IS MY TOP PICK!!!
9. Scripture Journal Printouts: A whole bunch of printouts and ideas to look through
10. Walk Beside Me: You could use the scripture story, verse, and song each morning for your devotional. for PrK-K aged kids.

Other Devotionals
11. Prayer Journal: A daily prayer journal printout. Great for any age.
12. Article of Faith Posters: We use these every morning. I think It is great for younger kids just being introduced to the Articles of Faith but of course can be use for all primary age kids.
13. Preach My Gospel Generation: This is what we are currently using. It follows along with Preach my Gospel. Each day you read a small section then you pick a video link to watch that goes along with it. It is perfect for younger children because the video is an awesome visual aid to help them understand the basic principles of the gospel. You could also use this for older children and have them write a journal entry each day or even as a prep for a pre-missionary aged child.
14. Armor Your Children: This is a devotional series that is meant for kids before leaving for school but of course it is adaptable for homeschooling also. Great for Elementary aged children.

Christmas Devotionals
15. Armor Your Children Christmas Edition: again, a short devotional each morning, meant for before sending the kids off to school but also great if you need a quick devotional
16. Christmas Symbols: Week long devotional (or could do one each week) with scriptures that explains the reason for christmas decorations.
17. 24 Day Advent Scripture reading: A scripture story that leads up to Christ's birth. (Bible only)
Truth in the Tinsel: This is more of an extended devotional. Each one comes with a craft. We did a few of them last year and really enjoyed it. Each craft can be put on the tree so it makes it fun to see all the ordainments you made. It isn't a quick devotional though it will take time to plan and do but totally worth it.
18. 24 Days of a Mormon Christmas: I really enjoy this one. We do it every year, though we have never gotten all the way through it. It does add the Book of Mormon Scriptures of Christ's Birth along with the Bible ones.
19. Tell Me The Stories Of Jesus: This is a simple quick one. Great for younger kids.
20. The Jesus Tree: Haven't tried this but looks fun. Similar to the truth is in the tinsel only seems like less prep and less time so might be good for those who need a quicker devotional but likes the idea of adding ordainments to a tree.
