Summary/Abstract: This article concerns homilies for children, of their importance in Church and family life. To speak to children in a way to have them listen and hear, demands taking them seriously and a solid homily preparation. For this reason a wide range of homiletic material has been enclosed with examples from known preachers. This aims to encourage others to use such ideas and suggestions. Upon this was formulated a proposal of cooperation between the preacher and families so that a child wouldn’t be lacking the Word of God during the week. The homily should have it’s “continuation” in the home.
