Teaching your children their ABC’s and the Bible Part 2


Along with learning the names and attributes of Jesus while learning their ABC’s, like I talked about in Part 1 here, I also wanted them to be memorizing scripture and thought it would be a great idea to learn a Bible verse for every letter of the alphabet as well.  

 I did some searching and came across this great resource from heartofwisdom.com.  She has compiled a list of Bible verses that go along with each letter of the alphabet.  You can go to her site and print out the copywork Bible verse pages here

That was great but my little kiddos weren’t writing at the time and I thought it would be a good idea if it were all compiled in a book that we could read together.  So I got creative and decided to make a book myself through shutterfly.com.  I love shutterfly and have used it to make my family photo albums each year and I had noticed that they had an ABC photo book layout.  What a great idea, not only would the kids have an ABC book and a Bible verse for each letter of the alphabet, but the book could feature them as well!  Kids love to see pictures of themselves so I set out to take pictures of them doing something or having something that coordinated with each letter of the alphabet such as for B I took a picture of them playing with their blocks and for F I took a picture of their feet, etc.  I compiled the pictures, Bible verses and the word for whatever action I chose for each letter together in a photo book and had it printed.  It has been one of their favorite books to look through and we have been making our way through the ABC Bible verses!

Here are a couple pages from our ABC Bible Verse Photo Book.  I hope you enjoy and are inspired.
