Toddler-Friendly Story:

The Cookie Who Couldn’t Stop Saying “Amen!”

In the little bakery town of Sprinkleton, there was one chocolate chip cookie who was extra sweet… and extra loud.

His name was Chip, and every time someone said anything — he shouted,
“AMEN!”

At the cookie choir practice: “Let’s start with warm-ups…”
“AMEN!” yelled Chip.

At the pie picnic: “Pass the napkins, please.”
“AMEN!” shouted Chip, crumbs flying.

The other cookies got annoyed. “Chip, you can’t say ‘Amen’ all the time. That’s not how it works!”

Chip felt sad. He didn’t mean to be silly. “I just get so happy when I hear anything good,” he said. “It makes me want to praise God!”

Just then, the whole bakery shook — CRASH!
The jelly jar shelf had fallen, and jelly oozed everywhere!

The cookies panicked! But Chip closed his cookie eyes and said,
“Dear God, help us clean this mess and feel peace. Amen.”

The room got quiet. Everyone blinked.

One little cupcake whispered,
“I forgot we could pray.”

Then a donut added, “We should pray about everything.

And from that day on, the town of Sprinkleton prayed more — with joy, with laughter, and with a few extra loud “AMENS!”


Activity:

“Say It When…” Game

  • Say different sentences and let the kids shout “Amen!” only when it’s a prayer or praise.

    • Example: “Let’s thank God for cookies!” → “Amen!”

    • “Time to clean up your toys.” → (No Amen!)

    • “God loves us!” → “Amen!”


Craft:

“Chip the Amen Cookie” Puppet
Supplies:

  • Small paper plate or circle of cardstock

  • Markers, googly eyes, construction paper for frosting/sprinkles

  • Write “Amen!” in bold letters

  • Glue a craft stick on the back to turn it into a puppet
    Let kids act out the story with their cookie puppet and yell “Amen!”


Song:

🎵 “I Can Say Amen” (To the tune of “If You’re Happy and You Know It”)
If you’re thankful and you know it, say Amen! (Amen!)
If you’re thankful and you know it, say Amen! (Amen!)
If you’re thankful and you know it,
Then your prayer will surely show it,
If you’re thankful and you know it, say Amen! (AMEN!)


Poem:

The Amen Cookie
He shouted “Amen!” night and day,
No matter what the others say.
He loved to pray and praise with glee,
That cookie’s heart was wild and free!


Pretend Play Game:

“Bakery Prayer Parade”
Let kids pretend to be cookies, cupcakes, or donuts. March around the room. When music stops, they freeze and shout a mini prayer and end with “Amen!”


Snack Idea:

Mini Sugar Cookie Faces
Give each child a sugar cookie and let them decorate with frosting and sprinkles to look like Chip the Amen Cookie. Or you can just give them mini chips Ahoy in a bag if you want it more easy and simple.
(Have kids say a short prayer before eating: “Thank You, God, for this sweet treat. Amen!”)


Closing Prayer (Repeat After Me):

Dear God,
Thank You for hearing my prayers.
Help me praise You with joy.
Even when I’m loud like a cookie,
You still love me.
Amen!


Optional Take-Home Note for Parents:

Today your child met “Chip,” a chocolate chip cookie who loved saying “Amen!” too much — but ended up reminding everyone to pray with joy. This fun lesson taught that prayer can happen any time, and that God listens when our hearts are thankful. Encourage your child to say “Amen” when they hear a prayer or praise at home!
