“Jesus taught with hands-on lessons and illustrations” and The Hands-On Bible “uses the same experience-based learning to communicate God’s Word in an active, understandable way”. This new edition uses the New Living Translation which is understandable for children. It features hands-on Bible experiences, key verse activities, and fun facts among tons of other features.
Here are a few of the hands-on ideas in this Bible:
- Make a collage of things you’d like to see in Heaven.
- Be a Shephard by leading a blindfolded friend through an obstacle course.
- Give someone a gift certificate of one thing you can do for them (like making them breakfast).
There is also a coordinating website called My Hands On Bible that features family devotions, music, a Bible reading plan, and more. I love the Bible Song MP3’s that I can download and listen to with my children. The Bible reading plan is perfect for children because it covers a well-known story each day and has an accompanying question for the child to think about while they read the story.
