When I was working on gentleness I had them working on it too. When I was reading Proverbs I would pick one or two out to share with them. I read my daily blogs to them too - just so they can be a part of my world - I even share some of your comments with them!Courtney (Women Living Well)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09656103671995728225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-66894858030966199032009-07-29T21:16:13.786-04:002009-07-29T21:16:13.786-04:00Holly - that's a GREAT idea to buy a One Year ...Holly - that's a GREAT idea to buy a One Year Bible for Kids to read through with them! I love that idea!<br /><br />And Mrs. Wood - I love the candy jar idea for answering questions correctly! <br /><br />And Melodie - it appears that meal time is the way to go - it does seem to be a time when we are all there and the kids are quieted down. <br /><br />Thanks everyone for sharing!Courtney (Women Living Well)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09656103671995728225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-7791626047525595542009-07-29T12:19:40.054-04:002009-07-29T12:19:40.054-04:00Courtney! This was just what I was looking for. Yo...Courtney! This was just what I was looking for. You are an answer to prayer. As I was looking to see what would work best for my 2 1/2 year old I thought it needs to be music. She has such a love and and ear for music already that it must be how the Lord will speak to her. These CD's are just what I was looking for - praise God! <br /><br />One thing that I have noticed for myself is that if I work on a verse or topic alone with God along side of trying to teach it to my kids, then the Lord multiplies the blessings. I might not 'teach' all I have learned directly to the kids but I think that in my living out what I have learned along side of sharing the truth with them the lessons seem to become more real to all of us. <br /><br />Blessings!Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16549151347517280207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-19572464426490386072009-07-29T11:06:53.423-04:002009-07-29T11:06:53.423-04:00Hello Courtney!
I am glad to hear that you are mak...Hello Courtney!<br />I am glad to hear that you are making the education of eternal Truth the most important part of your day! For the Wood family, we simply read through the Bible 1, 2, 3 chapters a day. We don't need expensive, cleaver or fancy programs to teach our children Truth do we? We love our time in the Word!! How much time we spend just depends on how much discussion there is. We review facts about our Faith on a daily/weekly basis. The children can earn candy from the candy jar (the only time they get candy) for answering questions correctly. For example all my children know the books of the bible, the days of creation, the ten commandments, how many books of the Bible Paul wrote, the fruit of the Spirit... and so forth. In our home, Family devotions is a time for Sinners who have been Saved by Grace to come together and learn, encourage and grow! When we get to the end of the Bible we start all over again! Often the children say, "I wonder when I grow up and finally move out how many times I will have had the Bible read to me?" I believe it is a 'rich' child that can say, "I had a mother/father that daily read the Word to me." <br /><br />P.S. I will check out the music you listed. I am always looking for songs that edify and reinforce what we are learning. We have used the Judy Rogers CD's for the last 15 years. They are precious! <br />With much love, <br />Mrs. Joseph WoodMrs. Joseph Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06902314777134247267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-17992530021214531692009-07-29T09:53:40.488-04:002009-07-29T09:53:40.488-04:00We are using a devotional called Dinner time devot...We are using a devotional called Dinner time devotions... we are already all gathered at the table at dinner time, so it works!!<br /><br />MelodieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-7526544500962796242009-07-29T09:30:16.830-04:002009-07-29T09:30:16.830-04:00This is a great idea.

Good way to start out the day. I'm going to do this. You have such wonderful ideas and I am so thankful for you and your site. :-) I also like that cd. We listened to that song and Jacob loved it. We are going to order it right away. I get so excited to read your blogs because I know that I will learn something good from it.

Andy reads the passage for that day every morning at brkfast (sometimes we get behind and that is fine too, we just read several days readings in one day). The kids love the idea of reading the ENTIRE Bible this year. <br />Holly<br />KyivAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
