Bible Time

Every morning we start our school day with Bible Time. The Bible that we are reading from is the Egermeier's Bible Story Book. I like this Bible because it is easy to read to children, has beautiful illustrations, and covers the whole Bible not just popular Bible stories. I try to read for at least 15-20 minutes per day. We read at least one section every day and sometimes more depending on the length of the section. Often we go on reading because the children want to know what happens next.
Then we read from My ABC Bible Verses, Hiding God's Word in Little Hearts by Susan Hunt. We learn a weekly Bible verse and read the story that applies to real life. Then we go back through all of the Bible verses we have learned starting with A. The verses are easy enough for even Alex to memorize (although while learning John 3:16, Alex thought begotten son was forgotten son) and while the stories are a bit too good to be true, they get their point across.
