What parents say

Parents like that the children actually read the Bible chapter by chapter, that siblings of different ages can do the same lesson, and that kids remember the stories well. Common gripes are that the website is confusing about what to buy, some activities assume a classroom-size group, the student pages are large and bind poorly, and the song CD does not suit everyone.

Parents love

  • One lesson serves every child; each gets pages at their own level
  • Children work straight from Scripture, not a retelling
  • Teacher guide is inexpensive and one unit lasts about two years

Common complaints

  • Ordering is confusing: guide, student pages, timeline and CD are all separate
  • Games and group activities need adapting for one or two children
  • Units are not strict Genesis-to-Revelation order, and lessons skip around

Who it fits

Best for

  • Nondenominational. Written to avoid denominational positions
  • Reading and discussion. Parent leads discussion from the Bible passage
  • Workbook and memory work. Leveled student pages with questions and drawing
  • Read through the whole Bible. 416 lessons cover the whole Bible over about four years
  • Yes, siblings together. Same lesson for ages 3 to teen, with different student pages
  • Mostly offline. Mostly books and hands-on work
  • Some screen time. Books-based, little screen time
  • Some: 20–30 min daily. About 20 to 40 minutes per lesson with a parent

Less suited for

  • Video lessons a big plus. Print guides and workbook pages only; an optional song CD is sold separately

These come straight from the scoring rules the quiz uses.
