Description

'Taste and see that the Lord is good.' - Psalm 34 v 8

Beginning with God helps parents with young children to explore the Bible with their child. This book provides a simple way to start your child in a regular habit of reading God's Word and growing to know God, who loves them.

We hope this book will help you and your child to explore the Bible together. Along the way you will meet King David; read about God’s special messengers to his people in the Old Testament; and be thrilled by the wonderful things said and done by God’s perfect Son, Jesus. But most of all, we hope that reading God's special book, the Bible, will help your child to know God, who loves them.

Beginning with God has been designed to work with The Beginner's Bible, but it can also be used with most other infant Bibles.

In today's culture so much pressure is put on us to feed our children well. We pray that this material will help those of us with pre-schoolers to nourish them with the word of God.

Each day is split into the following sections:

The main course: read today's true story from the Bible; answer some simple questions; pray together; then stick in today's colourful picture of the story.

Appetiser: an optional activity to grab your child's attention before the story.

A snack for the journey: a conversation to have while out and about.

Make it and munch it: optional craft activities to help your child remember today's true story.

Colourful sticker set included with book.

“Doable/achievable”

(Review written for 'Beginning with God: The Collection')

Easy enough to do with no prep required, so is actually doable/achievable. Would be great if it had a video resource of the same bible stories to supplement. Probably still slightly advanced for my 27 month old, but achievable with repetition.

“Excellent introduction to bible studies”

(Review written for 'Beginning with God: The Collection')

We are revisiting this series with out daughter after using them with our son.
Now our son reads the bible story as we come together as a family to explore God's word together.
Our three year old has loved listening to the passage, answering the questions and praying together.
I would recommend this series to all preschool families

“Great Resource”

(Review written for 'Beginning with God: The Collection')

A great resource for teaching toddlers the stories of the Bible and applying them to their lives - we use it with them in Sunday School.

“Well pitched for toddlers”

(Review written for 'Beginning with God: The Collection')

Bought the bundle for my 3 year old and so far can be adapted to use with a different children's bible which is useful. Well pitched for attention span with some fun ideas to engage, and stickers are always a win (although our book 1 stickers were not all present and correct, but hopefully this will not be the case for everyone).

“3 year old really enjoys, esp sticker!”

Really good. Can do as much or as little as suits you. Kids love the stickers and great use of repetition for starting prayers & actions. Thoroughly recommend
