فَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ فَرِجَالًا أَوْ رُكْبَانًۭا ۖ فَإِذَآ أَمِنتُمْ فَٱذْكُرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ كَمَا عَلَّمَكُم مَّا لَمْ تَكُونُوا۟ تَعْلَمُونَ

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Baqarah is surah 2. Find ayah 239. Prayer is so important it's never dropped, even in danger; it's made easier. When safe, we pray fully again.
Fact: Prayer is never dropped, only made easier when needed.
Ages 5–8: Pray anyway. Talk about praying on a journey.
Ages 9–12: Never dropped. Write why prayer is never skipped.
Finish with: "Prayer is made ___ when needed."
