A Bible Alphabet:
Alison Brown’s A Bible Alphabet is a beautifully illustrated book that introduces very young readers to some of the great stories and characters from the Bible, including Noah and the ark, David and Goliath, and Daniel in the lions’ den. Also available from the Trust is A Bible Alphabet Activity Book, containing 26 large format tear-out sheets with young children will enjoy colouring-in and completing.

A Bible Alphabet Activity Book: 
Alison Brown’s A Bible Alphabet Activity Book is the perfect compliment to the Banner of Truth book titled, A Bible Alphabet. This add-on activity book will engage your children as you read from A Bible Alphabet again and again, providing them with 26 large format tear-out sheets which young children will enjoy colouring, filling in the blanks, etc.

A Bible Alphabet Busy Book:

Many parents and teachers, and some schools, want to start with the Bible when educating their children.

Based on the stories from A Bible Alphabet, the pages of this Busy Book provide opportunity for children who are beginning to express themselves in writing to develop the skill of sentence making, while their thoughts are firmly focused on biblical truths.

Various types of structured writing activities are revisited at intervals, to inspire confidence, while the frequent use of open-ended questioning allows the more able child to experiment with his own vocabulary.

Where A Bible Alphabet Activity Book caters for children at the ‘talk and colour’ stage of learning, A Bible Alphabet Busy Book is designed to entice aspiring young writers to sharpen their pencils…and get going!

Bible Names:

One of the first words a child learns to recognise, and then to write, is his own name. He identifies not simply with its shape and sound, but often with its origin, especially if he shares it with someone he loves and respects.

Bible names were often derivatives of Greek or Hebrew words of very significant meaning. Some were chosen by the baby’s parents as an expression of their hopes for its future, while others were given, or changed, by God himself in order to describe a new identity that he wished the person to embody.

Bible Names, written for the primary age-group, presents simple biblical truths about God’s promises, repentance, faith, and obedience, using the lives and names of some well-known Bible characters, presented in chronological order. Some activities are provided to help children recap the main facts in each lesson.

*Bible Names is a sequel to A Bible Alphabet, Bible Numbers and Bible Animals which are also published by the Trust.

Bible Numbers:

Most young children, at some stage, are fascinated with numbers. They want to count each step as they climb the stairs or find out how many peas remain on their dinner plate. Much can be taught when a child’s interest is aroused and much will be remembered when the learning involves fun.

Bible Numbers introduces a dozen Bible stories for the numbers 1-12, using large, colorful illustrations, and provides a corresponding coloring page for each. At the end of the book the stories are rearranged into an order through which the gospel message is presented. Very young children may simply enjoy the number associations while the more advanced can be taught the spiritual application. A verse relevant to each Bible truth is also suggested which may prove useful as a memory verse.

Bible Animals:

In Alison Brown’s beautifully illustrated book, Bible Animals, few children can ignore an inquisitive donkey looking over a gate or the wriggling puppy they meet in the street.

Animal stories also capture their attention, and are usually those with which younger children identify most readily. The description of the animals in Noah’s Ark is surely the one least likely to be forgotten!

Bible Animals (for ages 5+) goes one step further; it uses a collection of animal stories drawn from Scripture, to present important, basic Bible truths. What is sin? Why did Jesus die? Why do bad things sometimes happen? Why is obedience important? These are issues about which positive God-honouring attitudes can be formed in the early years.

Sharing the pages of this original book with your child provides an opportunity to begin laying these vital foundations. An animal picture to colour is provided with each lesson.

Bible Animals is a sequel to A Bible Alphabet and Bible Numbers which are also published by the Trust.

Word Wise Vol 1:

Many children have heard the stories of Abraham, Moses, Joshua, Daniel, etc., but are still unaware of the chronology of the Bible, or the important part each character played in God’s big plan for mankind. Using word-searches, jumbled sentences, number codes, and crosswords, these pages provide a journey through the Bible to help children see the ‘big picture’.

While some reference has been made to every book of the Bible the emphasis on Genesis and the Gospels has been intentional since God’s Book is essentially a presentation of man’s need and God’s abundant answer through the person and work of his Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Bible is also God’s account of human history from the very beginning of time. Giving children a biblical worldview is foundational to developing their concept of an omnipotent God. They need to discover early that the answers to life’s most profound questions are to be found in God’s Amazing Book!

Word Wise Vol 2:

For many children today the Bible is a book for Sunday only. Some regard it as little more than a collection of stories which they fondly associate with Sunday School or their bedtime reading; easily discarded when they reach their teens, amid peer pressure to conform to the humanist and secularist views of today’s ‘real world’.

We need to connect what children do in the classroom on the other days of the week to the Bible; turning often to its less familiar pages, until they see that in every area of our existence Scripture always has been, and still is, the supreme authority.

Children learn through experience. We cannot expect them to trust God for eternity until they recognize the reliability of God’s account of what has happened in time.

‘If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things?’ (John 3: 12).

Work of His Fingers:

The Work of His Fingers is a beautifully illustrated rhyming book in praise of God’s wonderful creation. Here’s a taste of how this new title begins:

When we pause to consider this wonderful earth,
we see some incredible sights…
a world full of beauty suspended in space,
with billions of twinkling lights!

Perhaps you have wondered just how it got there,
… perhaps you’ve been tempted to guess?
(It didn’t explode from a cloud of hot gas;
explosions make only a mess!)

Instead it was lovingly made by our God,
whose power and great understanding
are far beyond anything thought of by man;
no problem was found too demanding.
