My Review:

I love reading to my kids and we always are reading from the Bible before bed.  With my kids aged 3 and 7 we have done more reading from books that include Bible stories but not stuck with a full Bible yet.   This Bible has a lot of great features that help explain many areas of the bible.  This book is recommended for ages 8-12 so I know it will get more use in a couple more years!  

This Bible has a great feature to grab the attention of kids, the Life in Bible Times section has articles and illustrations that will hopefully get kids interested in reading more.  I also like the verses that are already highlighted to encourage kids to memorize important scriptures. 

This Bible is available October 14, 2014 on Zondervan for $29.99.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  Itā€™s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program.

After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way. Scared is a feeling that can be hard to face, but if we listen to it, we can learn things about ourselves. In  God, I Feel Scared , children will discover that itā€™s okay to be scared and that God is with us in all things, including fear. With simple, accessible text, scared becomes an emotion that kids donā€™t need to avoid and instead something they can use to better understand themselves and grow closer to God. The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
