Kid's Life Application Bible
Publisher - Tyndale House Publishers
Ages - 8-12I have found the Life Application Bible to be one of the most complete and effective study Bibles for youth and adults, so when I learned there was a Life Application Bible for kids I was delighted and looked forward to the opportunity to review this bible for children.
Favorite Features:
- New Living Translation - easy to read and understand
- introductions to each Book with a time line
- I Wonder feature throughout to help kids think about what they are reading
- sticky situations feature throughout to help kids think through situations they may face and how to make right choices based on God's Word - excellent!
- amazing facts feature throughout with information kids will find interesting and amazing
- do the right thing feature throughout takes Bible people, the choices they made and shows kids how to make right choices in similar situations - excellent!
- heroes and villains feature illustrate choices real Bible people made and compares them to choices kids make today - excellent
- did you notice the "find it" feature at the end of each Book - it asks kids if they found specific, interesting facts/events/stories and provides a reference so they can "find it" - extremely excellent!
- indexes, charts and maps
This is an amazingly superb first real Bible for kids - I highly recommend it! I especially appreciate the excellent features with the strong focus on making right and wise choices as it is so important our kids learn to chose right while they are kids. This Bible has excellent features designed to help kids want to read their Bibles and to also help them understand what they read so they will be able to live it! Extremely well done Tyndale House Publishers!
