Proverbs 3:5-6 Worksheets for Kids

This verse teaches children to trust God even when they don't understand everything. When we put God first, He helps us make good choices and shows us the way.

The verse

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
— Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV)

Big idea: Trust God with all your heart, and He will guide you.

What's inside the pack

1. Memory verse page — the full text of Proverbs 3:5-6 in large print, with ruled lines for copying it out by hand.
2. Word search — a 12×12 grid hiding 8 words taken from the passage itself, running across, down, diagonally, forwards and backwards.
3. Fill in the blanks — the verse with 8 words removed, a word bank to choose from, and a drawing box for the big idea.
4. Teacher's page — what the verse means in kid-friendly language, 3 teaching ideas, a memory tip, and the full answer key.

How to use it

Print the pack single-sided on US Letter or A4 — the layout fits both. For younger children (ages 4–6), use page 1 as a tracing and colouring sheet and skip the word search. For ages 7–10, the word search and fill-in-the-blanks work as a complete 20-minute lesson. Older children can do the whole pack independently while you teach the passage.

Memory tip: Remember the pattern: trust, don't lean, remember, and He guides.
