Planning for Lent: Free Printable Lent Ideas Planning Pages Post Preview – This post has two sets of planning pages for your Lent ideas and promises. Each set has three versions, so you’re sure to find the perfect one for your family.
I don’t know if anyone else runs into this problem when Lent rolls around, but my family members sometimes have a hard time deciding on what things to add or give up during Lent. Or, even worse, sometimes we decide what we’re going to do, and then we slide on those things as the season of Lent continues on and busy lives make us less than diligent.
If you run into the same issues, or just want to write down your Lenten plans, I have some free printables that may help! I created two different designs of a Lent planning page printable, each with three versions.

Planning for Lent: Free Printable Lent Ideas Planning Pages
One thing that I like about these printables is that they are appropriate for both adults and kids. So, if you or your children are struggling with planning out how to make Lent more meaningful this year, print out a copy (or two or three or more).
All of the versions of this printable tell a little about Lent. They also talk about different areas that are important to Lent: prayer, fasting, and almsgiving or service.
Lent Ideas Planning Pages – About the Different Versions
I made three slightly different versions of this printable in two different designs. They are all free. You just need to pick your favorite to print out.
Although there are two different designs, the three versions of those designs have the same content.
There is a color version, though you can print it in grayscale. All of the boxes run horizontally across the page. There is a chevron design in the background. Here is the first design option (shown with the simpler version of the printable):
This second design option is only in black and white, though you could color in some borders with sharpened colored pencils or fine point markers. The second design option has all of the boxes in a grid. The design is more of a doodle-style. That design option is here (shown with one of the longer versions of the printable):
One version of each design has the explanation and a heading for each of the three areas. The other two versions of each design also feature ideas for things that someone might do in that area. I made these two different versions since both Catholics and (many denominations of) Protestants observe Lent. I wanted to have a version that had some Catholic-specific prayer suggestions. Then I made another one that gave other suggestions in the prayer area.
In the download area for the Lenten planning pages, you will first pick which design option you prefer. Click on the link for that design option. When you download the printable packet, you will receive a three-page document that includes all of the versions of that design. Just pick the page you prefer and print only that one.

Thank you so much for these resources. As my kids get more to the tween age I find it harder to find resources that speak to them and aren’t to childish or too mature. This along with your 40 lenten activities will be perfect.
Angie Kauffman says
