Beginning with God: Book 1
Description
Beginning with God helps parents with young children to explore the Bible with their child. This book provides a simple way to start your child in a regular habit of reading God's Word and growing to know God, who loves them.
We hope this book will help you and your child to explore the Bible together. Along the way you will read about the beginning of everything; meet Abraham, who was called a 'friend of God'; and be thrilled by the wonderful things said and done by God's perfect Son, Jesus. But most of all, we hope that reading God's special book, the Bible, will help your child to know God, who loves them.
Beginning with God has been designed to work with The Beginner's Bible, but it can also be used with most other infant Bibles.

The Beginners Bible.
(Review written for 'Beginning with God with The Beginner's Bible')
We brought this bible for our three year old Grandson. He loves it and his parents read it to him every bedtime.
A wonderful way to introduce our toddlers to the Christian faith. ![]()
Great book, ideal for toddlers
This book was bought to give to a 2 and a half year old little boy. He loved it and his parents found it accessible and attainable - even with a new baby in the house! it provides a Bible reading/theme for each day, with short activities and plenty of 'think about' ideas to link in with every day life. I would highly recommend it. ![]()
