#According to Sephardim, a woman who doesn't have time should at least say Birchot Hashachar, Birchot HaTorah, and Shemona Esrei. It is also proper for them to also say Shema. <ref>Yalkut Yosef (Otzar Dinim Lisha Velebat p. 68, 77, 104)</ref>

# Women are exempt from davening with a minyan.<ref>[https://ph.yhb.org.il/03-20-02/ Rav Eliezer Melamed (Peninei Halacha ch. 20)] explains that since women aren't obligated in mitzvot that are time bound they are exempt from joining the minyan. (Another [https://www.yeshiva.org.il/midrash/3858 link here].) Even though Rav Yakov Ariel (Bohela Shel Torah v. 2 ch. 26 p. 100) wrote that women are obligated in davening in a minyan he explained himself that he meant that [https://www.toraland.org.il/%D7%A9%D7%90%D7%9C%D7%95%D7%AA-%D7%95%D7%AA%D7%A9%D7%95%D7%91%D7%95%D7%AA/%D7%90%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%A0%D7%94-%D7%95%D7%94%D7%9C%D7%9B%D7%94/%D7%AA%D7%A4%D7%99%D7%9C%D7%94/%D7%97%D7%99%D7%95%D7%91-%D7%A0%D7%A9%D7%99%D7%9D-%D7%91%D7%AA%D7%A4%D7%99%D7%9C%D7%94-%D7%91%D7%9E%D7%A0%D7%99%D7%99%D7%9F/ torahland.org.il] women are exempt but it is ideal for women to daven in a minyan. The fact that they are exempt is also evident in the fact that they can't join for the requisite quorum for a minyan (Tosfot Brachot 45b, Shulchan Aruch O.C. 55:1, Mishna Brurah 55:3, Ishei Yisrael 15:6, Tefillah Khilchata 8:27).</ref>
# Women are exempt from davening with a minyan.<ref>Shvut Yakov 3:54, Leket Halachot 3:577 based on [https://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=1970&st=&pgnum=27 Teshuva M'ahava 2:229:10], and Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach in Halichot Shlomo (Tefillah ch. 5 fnt. 4 p. 61). [https://ph.yhb.org.il/03-20-02/ Rav Eliezer Melamed (Peninei Halacha ch. 20)] explains that since women aren't obligated in mitzvot that are time bound they are exempt from joining the minyan.

The fact that they are exempt is also evident in the fact that they can't join for the requisite quorum for a minyan (Tosfot Brachot 45b, Shulchan Aruch O.C. 55:1, Mishna Brurah 55:3, Ishei Yisrael 15:6, Tefillah Khilchata 8:27).</ref> Therefore, they shouldn't skip tefillot in order to catch up to the minyan.<ref>Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach in Halichot Shlomo (Tefillah ch. 5 fnt. 4 p. 61) holds that there's no obligation at all for a women to daven with a minyan and therefore she shouldn't skip to catch up with the minyan. Avnei Yishfeh Tehillah 16:6 quotes Rav Shlomo Zalman but also quotes Rav Elyashiv and Rav Shmuel Wosner who disagrees that women can skip pesukei dzimra in order to daven with a minyan since it enhances her davening.</ref>
# Regarding Kriyat Hatorah some say that women are obligated to listen to kriyat hatorah but the minhag is that women do not listen to kriyat hatorah.<ref>Magen Avraham 282:6, Mishna Brurah 282:13. Avnei Yishfeh Tehillah 16:6 explains that even the Magen Avraham who says that woman are obligated to listen to kriyat hatorah which needs a minyan that is only because it is part of a public reading that she understands and gains from as we find by hakel which includes women. However, davening Shemona Esrei with a congregation is something that since they can't form or contribute to the minyan, chazal never obligated to daven with a minyan.</ref>

{{Children and Prayer}}
#Once a child knows how to speak one should teach them to say the first pasuk of Shema. <ref>Mishna Brurah 70:7 notes that this does not have to be said in the proper time of shema </ref>
#A child of 6 or 7 should be taught to say the brachot of [[Kriyat Shema]], Shema,<ref>Mishna Brachot 20a says that children are exempt from reciting shema. Rashi explains that this refers to children that have reached the age of chinuch. Rabbenu Tam argues that this refers to children that have not reached the age of chinuch, but once they have reached the age of chinuch, they should be taught to say shema. Shulchan Aruch 70:2 quotes both opinions and says it is appropriate to be strict like Rabbenu Tam.
 
M.B. 70:6 notes that this means one should train the child to recite shema at the proper time with all the brachot</ref> and [[Shmoneh Esrei]]. <ref>[[Tefillah]] KeHilchata 1:12-13. M.B. 106:5 says this means shachrit and mincha. Rav Simcha Bunim Cohen (Children in Halacha page 19) says that the custom is not to train children to daven mariv. </ref>
##If a child cannot pray the entire prayer, the order or priority is Shemoneh Esrei, Kriyat Shema, Birchot Hashachar, and then P'seukei D'zimra.<ref>Rav Simcha Bunim Cohen (Children in Halacha page 19) quotes Chinuch Yisroel page 77</ref>
##A child can eat before Shmoneh Esrei in the morning.<ref>M.B. 106:5</ref>
#One should teach one's small children to answer [[Amen]] because once a child answers [[Amen]] it has a place in Olam Haba. <ref>Rama 124:7 </ref>
#There is a chinuch for a child to daven in a minyan but davening in a group of ten children isn't considered a minyan at all even for chinuch.<ref>Rav Soloveitchik (Nefesh Harav p. 113) explained that for chinuch it needs to be a halachically valid structure for the chinuch to be effective (Ritva Sukkah 2b).
 
Rav Moshe Feinstein (Igrot Moshe O.C. 2:98) says that one must stop children if they are doing dvarim shebikdusha with a minyan of children as that is prohibited. </ref>
#Regarding children performing Birkat Cohanim see [[Birkat_Cohanim#Upon_whom_is_the_mitzvah_of_Birkat_Cohanim.3F|Birkat Cohanim]].
