What will you do if your child asked you to teach him how to pray?

As an atheist parent, what if there comes a time when your child asked you to teach him/her how to pray, what would you do when you don't pray?
I'm a theist but not a member of a particular religion. I was raise as a catholic and my child sees catholic people everywhere. One time she asked me to teach her how to pray, so I taught her my personal way of praying and not the way Christians does. I know it will be different if you are an atheist, so I would love to know what would you do in that scenario.
