Help Your Kids Learn and Love the Bible {book review}
Passing on our faith to our children is one of the most important things we do as parents. Knowing how to do that successfully with grace and love is a skill we need to develop.
Author Danika Cooley writes on this topic in her new book, Help Your Kids Learn and Love the Bible. She believes wholeheartedly in making the Bible approachable for children — without watering down the message.
Help Your Kids Learn and Love the Bible
I’m always looking for clever and creative ways to help my daughters understand and really absorb the truth in God’s word.
One of the first things we usually think of as parents is to use Bible storybooks or kid-friendly resources such as those. However, we have to go beyond just those Bible stories to really connect the people and events to Biblical truth.
Hands-on learning is very important in our homeschool. So are deep discussions about issues and concepts that we read about and learn together. Learning about the Bible is no exception!
Danika Cooley writes in a conversational and honest way about Christian parenthood and finding our way as we raise our kids. I appreciate her insights and her vulnerability about her own experiences.
As a homeschool mom, she understands what it’s like to teach your kids — and not just the Bible. She references learning styles and different techniques to be sure that you reach your kids on their own unique ground.
