Many of our children spend time during the summer months trying to escape the summer heat by sitting in front of the computer or playing video games. While there are today many good resources for our children online that assist in character building and education, let’s face it…spending so many hours in front of the TV or computer isn’t the best place for our children.
Many of our children also need practice with their reading skills. It wasn’t too long ago when parents used the Bible to help their children learn to read. Early American history is filled with stories of young children practicing the reading skills by reading from the family bible. Why not begin a new tradition this summer by inviting your children to each take turns reading a few verses from the family bible? It will help their reading, bring them closer to Jesus Christ, AND serve as great family time during the heat of summer.
There are several wonderful children’s books offered in our bookstore about saints and the Bible. Stop by and pick up a book for this summer’s reading time. You won’t be disappointed!
Blessed reading!
