lorisuewho Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 This year one of the things we are doing for family devotions is the Rod and Staff preschool "B" book, Bible stories to color. It is perfect. I can read the Bible stories and everyone can color which actually seems to help them focus. I'm not sure what to do when we finish this. I purchased the Picture Smart Bible, but I actually think that is a bit above where my kiddos are at now. I know the author is coming out with a preschool version eventually. Is there anything else that is easy to complete or just a picture to color to go with Bible stories? I don't want boring workbook pages. I want to keep our learning deep but not turn it into a busy work session. Right now all the children really enjoy Bible time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelli Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Have you looked at Calvary Chapel's Children's Ministry curriculum? It's very similar to what you are describing. Of course, I love Bible Study Guide for All Ages. You could easily use the beginner pages for all of your children. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisoncooks Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Grapevine has drawing (stick people) that accompanies the lessons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaCEmom Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I haven't had the time to implement anything yet, but I've been looking at this site: http://www.calvarycurriculum.com/curriculum.php It says it's free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnMomof7 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 CLE's Bible 1 and 2 is just like that. I have book B for my 5-yo and just started CLE 1 with my 7-yo because she wanted Bible coloring pages too. One page story to read, a coloring or activity page on the next page. Pretty affordable too. The difference is there are multiple LU and they are work texts so the story is in the books themselves. No need for the TG at these levels.

I have wanted to avoid workbooks, but if it is just coloring and little activities, that might be what we are looking for. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnMomof7 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 We also do Postal Bible Studies. Only 4 lessons/month, but it comes by mail (always exciting for the kids), and it's free. It's basically one page per lesson with a small coloring section, a story to read, and maybe a few letters to fill in blanks with in the first level. http://www.bible-n-more.com/ Children earn points and can save them up for goodies too.

Stars Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 We use the Bible Study Guide for All Ages. I think the previous lessons' review part of the worksheet has been especially helpful, and I like that the reading part is text without commentary. The coloring parts are not straight-up coloring, but directed to reinforce the story ("Which character was angry? Color him red."). We love the song CDs. I do not have time for the timeline, drills, or extra activities, but I'm satisfied with what we do use as sufficient for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esse Quam Videri Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 This might be what you are looking for: Kids Color Me Bible Kids Color Me Gospel of John They are free and really good actually! They include a lesson and discussion questions, as well as a coloring page and a chance to draw/color/paint their own picture based on the scripture. At the end you bind all of your children's artwork into his/her own bible picture book. We used the Gospel of John as a supplement last year to go deep into the book of John. We also used CC memory work and learned John 1:1-7 in English and Latin. It was a great study! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
