My grandchildren and I have been enjoying reading through the Bible using their kids' Bible. It's in the NIV version which is a bit easier for them to understand at this age. I also share other encouraging Bible memory verses with them in my favorite version – the New American Standard Bible – as well as the King James version.
Any time I visit for nap or bed time, we always read a Bible story and/or work on their Bible memory verses, as well as reading one other story. Right now, we've been focusing on pioneers like Daniel Boone, plus I just got the biography on Martin Luther King Jr.
It's so important to cultivate a lifelong habit of reading the Word of God regularly, preferably daily, in our children's and grandchildren's hearts and this is one of the ways I strive to help with that.
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 (KJV)
Isn't that a fun way to teach our children and grandchildren those encouraging Bible verses? I do love working with the cute country clipart from Trina and Friends. 🙂
For more of Word-Filled Wednesday with plenty of uplifting Bible verses paired with interesting pictures, be sure to visit Internet Cafe Devotions. You'll be blessed!
P.S. One caveat when you are buying a Bible for your grandchildren – watch the print size and color! The size in one of the Bibles they have is fine, but the print is a light brown – very hard to read for this baby boomer granny nanny with aging eye changes! I may have to get them a different Bible with darker print, just so I can read it easier. Hmmm, large print might be good too – for them as well as me. What do you think – any suggestions? 🙂

Blessings Kaye,
I so love your heart for children and this is ever so cute! These bears certainly know the berry best verse for the BIBLE and love how you instill God’s Word in yours! Solid WORD from 2 Timothy.
Since I’m not so current with Children’s books including Bibles in large print, being here in Mexico, I’m not sure of one specific to recommend but I know that they exist. Tyndale has a One Year Bible for Children and there is one version that was recommended for children but I’m not sure of the print size or color. Good points to check out!!!
Thank you for the clipart links! Thank you so much for the prayers and encouragement on your visit to me.
Peace and JOY,
Peggy
Awww, Lori, Thank you 🙂
Hi Peggy, How fun to “see” you. Thought you might be gone a bit longer. Hope and pray it’s all settling in well and glad you are safe. 🙂
Thanks, Amydeanne! 🙂 🙂 🙂

Oh this is great. I actually envy you a little. My oldest are in Missouri and I am in Texas. I keep trying to get them to let the oldest communicate on computer but to no avail. Enjoy yours!
Thanks for sharing this!
Hi Sherry, How old is the oldest? When they get to be about 4 or 5, you might see if they are doing Webkinz. If so, you might be able to have fun playing games online with their Webkinz stuffed virtual animals at Webkinz World. 🙂 My long distance grandkids and I have had fun with that. 🙂
I’m with you Whidbey Woman – I’ve been a fan of cute country clipart for over 30 years! It’s just so CUTE! 🙂
So cute and so helpful to instruct the wee ones! Of course, I love anything country 🙂 Happy WFW!
That is so cute, Kaye. Your grandchildren and others are blessed by your teachings.
Hello Kaye,
What a great place you have here ~ so much to see and read. I have perused several posts and have come back to see some more 🙂
Kindly, Lorraine
