MY THOUGHTS.....

Children using this Bible can truly become explorers! As they read this Christian Standard Bible version of God's Word, they're invited to learn about the history and culture of the time and place mentioned. There are color illustrations, timelines, maps, and actual photographs to encourage them to dig deeper. Children of this generation love technology so they will be drawn to the special QR codes that take them to videos, discussion questions, and activity pages. I especially liked that the introduction to each book of the Bible offers children the answers to the important "Who, What, When, and Why” questions and that the words spoken by Jesus are printed in red text.

The title implies that it's for kids but this CSB Explorer Bible for Kids is perfect for the whole family to use. It's a wonderful resource for both personal and church libraries and it would also be a perfect Christmas gift!

These questions help recap the story and make sure that your child truly understands the story. Stuck on a question? There's an accompanying answer key that makes getting the correct answer easy!

Help this new generation fall in love with reading the Bible with the Egermeier's Interactive Story Bible!

MY THOUGHTS.....

We all know that today's generation of children is caught up in technology so what better way is there to acquaint them with God's Word than with an interactive Bible? Egermeier's Interactive Story Bible is a wonderful way to introduce young people to God's Word and to keep them wanting to learn more. Many of the stories have QR codes that allow them to hear the stories read aloud and video links that allow them to see the stories being drawn before their very eyes, but I'm very glad that there are also traditional stories that require them to read the words for themselves. Technology is great but reading the written word should never be discouraged! Scriptures references are provided and I also love that there are questions at the end of each story to encourage further thinking and discussion. There's also a wealth of information in the added bonus material, including extra Bible facts, parables, prayers, and full-color maps.

I've always believed that books make wonderful presents and the gift of a Bible is special in its own right. Egermeier's Interactive Story Bible targets children ages 8 and older and it would be a great first Bible!

I received a complimentary copy from the publisher via FrontGate Media. There was no obligation for a positive review. These are my own thoughts.
