When my kids were little, I am always on the hunt for a Bible that will spark their love for knowing and loving the word of God. From they were toddlers to when they started reading all the way to the pre-teen stage, we constantly change their Bible according to their age level or level of understanding. There is one thing in common when I start to research a Bible that I will fit my girl's stage, it needs to be engaging. The toddler stage may require full-color graphics and short Bible stories. I also love Kid's bible which has special features in it. It can be a short devotional or a life application section,
While my kids are not early readers anymore, I still get excited about reviewing new young children's Bible. I love seeing all the new features that it can offer and enjoying the creativity of artists. After all, regardless of the version, God and His word remain the same and endure forever (Isaiah 40:8). Speaking of new Bibles for children, Zondervan sent me a copy of The Illustrated Holy Bible (NIrV)
