But let's face it, when it comes to teaching my kids about Christ, it's really my responsibility. and I wanted to take ownership of that. Recently I stumbled upon my friend Rachel's blog about the Jesus Storybook Bible. It was pretty interesting and several of my other friends had been talking about it. She had a giveaway contest on her blog and I entered. I was so excited when I won! We got it in the mail today, and immediately the boys were interested in reading it.
We started with the creation story and I was blown away by how well they grasped the concepts. In the end, even Noah was somewhat understanding what we were talking about. I just love listening to their little voices talking excitedly about God, and what He made. They were so thrilled they didn't want to stop with just one story!
Though we have a long way to go, I feel like this bible is a great tool in stepping towards that direction. I'm really looking forward to our reading times.

LOVE that Bible! Eli got it from The Stirring when he was dedicated! How fun for your kiddos!!!
We give this Bible to each child when they move from the nursery up to the preschool class. I hope your kiddos enjoy it as well.

That's cool! Thanks for the book tip sis!!
We have that Bible too and the kids love it! We usually end each day doing devotions, catechism questions and prayer. It's a great tool and seems to really keep them interested. That is so neat that you won it!!
