Bible - One for each child?

Bible - One for each child?

New postby beltran4christ » Tue Dec 05, 2006 3:55 pm

If we decide to use Adventures this January with Joshua, Annette & Caleb and money was not a problem, would you recommend the Discoverers Bible for each child?

They all have a Bible of their own, but was wondering if it would be easier if they all had their own Bible for this program.

Blessings,

You can use whichever Bible you have. The advantage of the NIrV Bible in Adventures is the larger print that is more suitable for younger children and the "readability" factor. The teacher's manual lists both passage and page number. You'll be fine with whatever.

Also, you didn't ask this, but it is common one with Adventures and scripture memory. You can have your child do memory work in the translation preference of your family.

Thank you =) I like that it is bigger print. I think I will get one for each. It can be their 'school' Bible ;)

Linda,
Another option would be to share one Bible. I sit between my two boys and we take turns reading. It works just fine. You could always start with just one and add extras if you felt like you wanted them later. Just a potential money saving thought. :)

By the way, this probably goes without saying but I will pipe up and add that the Bible portion of Adventures is wonderful. Making our Jesus poster is so much fun; my boys really take pride in it.

I just bought this bible. We're not to Adventures yet, but I needed something I could understand (and see for that matter). I love it! And when we hit Adventures my dd will have hers and I will have mine. Sometimes it makes kids feel good to have their very own.
