My father taught me and his taught him, that the first utterance from our lips when we wake, and the last before sleep should be “Praised be Jesus Christ”. Since I was 3 or 4 years old, I’ve known this prayer as have my brothers, sisters, nieces nephews and my children and now grandchildren. It is a easy simply Praise, that parents can teach to the youngest. It’s power however comes from the tradition of “framing” all your words and thoughts of a day “inside” two utterances of this simple prayer.
I recommend all who have small children, especially those just learning to talk, to teach it, then say it as a morning greeting and as a final good night prayer.
