Mommamia: Try talking to the kids about Hashem as though He is a member of your family, for ex, when they say a bracha well, try ” Hashem heard your bracha and He is so happy that you are thankful for your food…..” Try to bring Hashem into as much of what the kids do, in other words, facilitate the relationship and dialogue between themselves and Hashem. On Shabbos, it might be helpful to talk about your own pleasure in the day; share with them in a real way, as you might to a good friend, about what is particularly wonderful to you about Shabbos. Just suggesting.
