Annelle K. (Psalm150) reviewed The One Year Book of Did You Know Devotions for Kids on + 275 more book reviews
Our family has read through several devotionals for kids, and this one is the most interesting one we've read in a long time. The title for each day's lesson is always such a tease, you can't wait to read what the story is about. Examples are, "Why was a bank alarmed at a withdrawal?", "How did a captive audience escape from the singing emperor?", or "How could the idea of bungee jumping be over one hundred years old?" One devotional was never enough for our kids, which works out great if you're a little behind schedule! Each story ties into the scripture very well, and each devotional asks the question, "So What?" which helps you tie the story, the scripture, and life all together. You'll learn some interesting trivia, hear some funny stories, laugh and giggle, and along the way, learn a lot about God! Terrific!
Finally! A devotional that is fun for all of us to read! My kids love this devotional book -- it has short, funny or just plain interesting stories with facts about everyday things, plus a spiritual connection that wraps it all together. This has been a great quick read in the morning after breakfast. It doesn't take much time, but I think that's part of the appeal. A good way to connect with my kids and with God at any time of day!
