Love Bible Minibook for Kids

By 3 Comments

It’s almost one month before Valentine’s Day and today I’ve got a special Bible Verse minibook based on LOVE!  This printable book is based off of 1 Corinthians 13, and shows children the character quality of LOVE in action.

Print LOVE Book Here

Printing & Assembly: This printable book is available in color or black and white and is intended to be printed on both sides of the paper.  Be sure to choose double-sided, flip on the short edge in your printer settings.   If you print with color be sure to use cardstock paper as the color bleeds through.   Once printed, fold the booklet in half, and in half again (so that the cover is correct).  You can then cut the page apart or trim the top, then staple together.   (Don’t worry if that is too confusing you can just cut apart the pages, place them in order and staple together.)

christmassymbolsprintablesChristmas can be overwhelming…..and the true message of Christmas can often get lost in all the “Holiday” festivities.  On our sister site we provide many free printables that teach children about the true meaning of Christmas.  We also have snow and candy cane themes you can use to point children to Christ during the Winter activities.

Today we’ve added a new section on the website that covers Christmas Symbols and their Meanings.  This is a great way to show children that all of the activities that take place during the Christmas holiday are intended to point back to Christ and the sacrifice he made for us.

  • The Tree points to heaven and reminds us that God is eternal.
  • The Wreath is a circle and reminds us that God’s love for us is also eternal.
  • The Candle shines brightly, showing us that Jesus is the light of the World
  • The Bells ring out a celebration to announce the coming King.
  • The Baby in a manger shows the birth of the Jesus, the Lord and Savior of the world.
  • The Candy Cane is shaed like a shepherd’s staff, reminding us that Jesus is our shepherd.
  • The Star was placed in the sky for the wise men to follow.
  • The Holly is sharp like the crown of thorns, the berries are red like the blood he shed.
  • The Cross reminds us of the sacrifice that Jesus made for our sins.
  • The Presents remind us of God’s gift to the world

Christmas Bible Coloring Pages

ChristmasHeader

Christmas is such an amazing outreach opportunity for Children’s Ministry.

Many new students will be coming to your classrooms this Winter, and I wanted to make a few resources you can use or send home with children next month.

These are simple special reminders to children that God has created them unique, and loves them eternally. The pages are designed for little hands to color in, you might even add a little sparkle with some glitter or glitter gel pens.

There are some great books you can pair with these coloring pages if you want to make a theme in your classroom as well.

SnowflakeColoring

God Made Me Unique Snowflake Coloring Page

SnowflakeBentlySnowflake Bentley From the time he was a small boy in Vermont, Wilson Bentley saw snowflakes as small miracles. And he determined that one day his camera would capture for others the wonder of the tiny crystal. Bentley’s enthusiasm for photographing snowflakes was often misunderstood in his time, but his patience and determination revealed two important truths: no two snowflakes are alike; and each one is startlingly beautiful.

 

SnowmanColoring

The Spirit of God Snowman Coloring Page

FrostySnowmanFrosty the Snowman is such a beloved tale around Christmas!  Children love the magical story of a snowman come to life for a day and I thought it would be fun to make a Bible Verse coloring page you could use to tie in with this Winter story.

 

 

CandyPlacematBoy

Jesus Loves Me Candy Cane Coloring    

CandyCaneThe Legend of the Candy Cane is such an amazing resource book around Christmas!  I love books and tangible objects that can point children to God and serve as a reminder of his everlasting love for them.  If you haven’t yet picked up a copy of this popular book, I highly recommend it, there is a Kindle version as well making is simple to add this book to your holiday collection.  J is for Jesus is another sweet holiday story for children that uses the candy cane to represent the gospel message.

This is a simple coloring sheet that reads, “I will fix my eyes upon Jesus!” and shows the candy corn “pointing” and looking towards the heavens.  The candy corn is three colors and can also be used to teach the trinity (3 parts one whole).  Provide children with a few candy corns for color reference :)

My Help Comes From the LORD Verse Bracelet

Creation Bible Bookmarks

CreationBookmarksHeader

It seems like everywhere I look there are lots of Adult coloring pages, zentangles, and patterns for people to color in.  I think these types of printables are so popular because there is just something about coloring that is so calming and therapeutic.

Plus it’s fun.

Today I created a Creation Story Bible Bookmark for Older children (or adults) to color in.  This would make a great in class art activity (think: glitter pens) or just an open invitation for children to color when left on the dining room table.  Each day of creation is depicted as you go down the bookmark so it makes a hand Bible study tool for children as well.

Okay, I know it’s a tad early to start posting Pumpkin themed printables, but better early than late right?

Besides, I know many of you are NOT procrastinators (like myself) and I’m sure you’re already planning for the Fall months ahead.

So here is a simple activity page that features the Pumpkin Prayer, which is a step by step carving guide for explaining the message of salvation as you cut into and decorate a pumpkin this Harvest season.  There is also a blank pumpkin for children to draw on their own pumpkin face, so these would make excellent take home items for those of you in Children’s Ministry or Daycare centers.

Learn to Read with a Bible

By 7 Comments

LearntoReadBible

Teaching your child to read is one of the most difficult but rewarding tasks of Homeschooling.

Starting with read alouds when children are very young builds many pre-reading skills that will set the foundation for your child’s reading career.   As far as teaching a child to read, the best thing you can do with your child is read to them!

I’m currently teaching my third child to read so I’ve had ample opportunity to try out different reading curiculums and online software, some of which I couldn’t live without, but today I wanted to highlight some of my favorite Bible resources for learning to read.

Learn2ReadBible

Learn-to-Read Bible by Heather Gemmen

Who is this for? This Learn to Read Bible is for a child who is just starting to master letter sounds and blends.  The child may or may not have memorized a few sight words, but they are showing readiness to move beyond letter sounds and into blending words.

LTRBible1

Why use this Bible?  Each page is filled with full color illustrations that will draw your young child into God’s word.  Below the colorful pictures are two new words for children to learn, followed by three or four short sentences for children to read.  The font is bold and easy to read, with the new words in a different color.  Many pages contain short follow up questions you can ask your child after the reading.

 

LTRBible2

How to use this Bible to Learn to Read:  For each day teach your child the two new vocabulary words.  Introduce the words to your child then work together to read the days reading, emphasizing the new words as you read.  If your child is just starting to read words you might read the page first, moving your finger underneath each word accordingly.  Next, read the page with your child. Again, as you read with your child hold your finger underneath each word you are reading and slowly sound out the letters together, blending the sounds to form the word.  Slow and steady is the goal, it might take the entire lesson to read the first page and that is okay.  After blending the word be sure to “recap” what you are reading to keep the words in context and move the story along.   You might ask your child to copy their new words into a notebook, and choose a sentence to use as copywork and handwriting for the day.

Learn2ReadWorksheetPin

Here is a free copywork page you can use specifically with this Learn to Read Bible.  This would make a simple follow up to your short daily lessons.  Children write their two new vocabulary words into the blank frames.  Then using the Learn to Read Bible as a source, they can copy a sentence with one of their new words onto their paper.  Children can then follow up by writing something they learned about God from the story.   The Learn to Read Bible is very good at keeping God the center of the storyline, children will easily find sentences in their reading such as, “God is great,” “God does not lie,” “God was with them,” and “God had a plan.”  Pages that don’t include such sentences provide children with an opportunity to dig deeper into the story to determine what they can learn about God from the days passage.  You might even have children read their responses to you afterwards to reinforce reading and editing skills.

 

LTRBibleReaders

For children who are ready, you can expand these daily readings with Rocket Readers Bible Stories.

Each level includes multiple books for children to read with a specific goal in mind.  For example Level 1 Rocket Readers work on alphabet sounds and beginning sight words, Level 2 teaches letter combinations, Level 3 brings in beginning writing skills…..etc.  These books are small but provide children with a sense of accomplishment and don’t overwhelm the early reader.

 

 

Early Reader BibleOnce your child can read more than a few sentences at a time, you might consider The Early Reader’s Bible.  It was also one of our favorites and with the vocabulary word bank and follow up questions it’s very easy to transition your child to this next level.
