I have been strict about using the KJV only for the majority of my saved life, but recently changed my perspective and began searching for the best children's bibles for my family. This video has been a huge help. Thank you!

The other reference Bible I use that Work is my first memory verse Bible from Scandinavia publishing house. It’s also a board book and pretty well written with giving a brief description of the Bible story that the verse comes from. I also love that it has a handle and it has a soft cover on the outside. Soft but sturdy cover. Soft with the plastic on the outside that’s squishy.

OMG. Because of this video, I wanted to try out a Kenneth Taylor Bible so I got a child’s first Bible and I love I am blind and autistic and use this with the help of my CI device. it. I love the little stories it and I also like asking people the questions in it. I also enjoy learning from it. so I agree with you about the Kenneth Taylor. Kenneth Taylor is awesome. I’m still in the old Testament, but I can 10:07 tell you it’s awesome.

[keeperofmyhome]

I love hearing your family stories!!! What a sweet memory of your grandpa reading the story after dinner time.. so precious!!I actually like the “old looking” pictures.. 💕

[Blessedbears]

I love this Rachel! We are constantly going through bibles and I love hearing about new children’s types to get!
I love storybook bibles because I feel that children can understand the main bible but lets me real... adding colors and images can help it make a lasting impression! I found Jesus through a children’s program!

I love how you explained it and I agree 100% .

[LivingWithEve]

You made some good points, I know when my kid’s were little bities and even now with Naomi, finding one that meets their needs and what they can understand.

I use the beginners Bible timeless children’s stories as my Bible for Work. It’s pretty much my main Bible that I use because I work at a church where I sing and play piano and bass guitar. And during the sermons when we’re reading the word of God I have this Bible in my work bag and I pull it out when it’s time to read, the text and I look for the story that goes along with whatever text or reading in the adult Bible. Or a story that’s very similar to what we’re reading in the adult version. I don’t have the adult version because I haven’t found it yet, and I wouldn’t be able to understand it anyway, because of my autism, but, the beginners Bible is absolutely wonderful. I’ve also been trying some other Bibles, children’s Bibles to see which ones I liked and which ones I thought we’re OK. There’s this Bible by publications international that I’ve started reading called night night bedtime Bible. Or something like that. It’s written by publications international and it is an amazing story Bible. For a board book Bible for toddlers it is beautifully written like a normal story story. And it even tells you who illustrated the stories which is awesome. I liked it. It reads like a normal story just like the beginners Bible and like the other Bible that, I found or what I mean to say is another Bible that I found which is called 70 easy to read Bible stories. I just started reading that one too and I love it! The babies story Bible is pretty good and it’s got actions that you can do with the story like making your hands, wiggle around like rain to show the big flood that Noah protected himself and the animals from. Honestly beautifully written beginners Bible and 70 easy Bible stories and night night story Bible. It’s not the newer version that’s written by somebody else, it is the publications international version from 2002. It has a little opening in the topfront cover of the book that makes it look like a picture frame because there’s a big picture on the first page of the board book. It shows you the inside large picture at the beginning.

Great overview! Thank you for providing. Great advice for not making the Bible as intimidating when it's time to start reading for themselves.
