🧠 What to Look for in a Bible for Primary School Kids
When choosing a Bible for children aged 5-11, look for:
- Age-Appropriate Language:
✍️ Choose translations or paraphrases written in clear, simple language they can easily grasp. - Engaging Illustrations:
🎨 Colourful pictures can help younger readers visualise and connect with the stories. - Helpful Features:
🔎 Look for Bibles with maps, glossaries, devotionals, or simple explanations to support their understanding. - Durability:
📚 A sturdy hardcover or soft leather binding helps a Bible survive school bags and daily use! - Bite-Sized Stories:
🧩 Some Bibles break down longer passages into manageable stories — perfect for bedtime reading or morning devotionals.
