Congratulations to Tracey D. for winning a copy of the Managers of Their School book! Hope you enjoy it!
So this week, a little something different!
Several years ago we came across a book that encouraged you as family to memorize 100 scripture verses. We challenged some friends to join us and then dove in. It was a wonderful experience but a little more challenging for the two younger kids as some of the verses were pretty hefty. I am amazed at what kids can learn, but let's face it, some verses are just more easily understood than others for younger children. Since then we have chosen our own verses and often shorten them for the younger kids.
Now, I have something even better! Scripture Stickies!
When founder Julie Alvarez contacted me about reviewing these little gems I was thrilled. They are perfect for our family! Many different packs are offered, including kid packs, which contain 10 verses. These verses are not only slightly shorter, but are ones that are easily understood and quite applicable to our kids' lives. Verses like Ephesians 6:1 Children, Obey your parents in the Lord for this is right and Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me to name just a few. Again, the kid packs come with 10 different scriptures for you to memorize.
The best part - each scripture is printed on a post it note-type backing so you can put them where they are easily seen. Since my kids are sharing a bathroom these days, onto the bathroom mirror they went, one each week. There they can be seen several times a day and are a good reminder to practice! I love it!
Scripture stickies are offered in NIV, NKJV, KJV, NASB, ESV and some foreign languages as well. You can buy individual packs or you can buy the Scripture of the Month club, in which a new pack is sent to you each month on a different topic. Each of the standard packs have two copies of 5 different verses. Stick one in your home and one in your car or somewhere else you spend a lot of time and you will be on your way to hiding God's word in your heart.
These fun little packs are perfect for gifts, party favors and would make great stocking stuffers. Guess what my friends will be getting in birthday cards? ;) shhhhhhhh, don't tell!

Blessings,
Welcome! Follow our family of 6 on our military moving, God loving, homeschool adventure! We are honored you have joined us and look forward to hearing from you.
I would love the party favors pack. I work with a ladies ministries and these would be GREAT!
ReplyDeleteWe bought these with our Bible Bee verses and still have them all over the house. I'd like the custom set.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about buying these as little gifts. I'd love to try out the Keep Praying set.
ReplyDeleteI'd love the Custom set, or the Advent ones. The custom would be perfect to give for teacher presents - the verse theme this year for my children's school is the Proverb "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, and the glory of kings to fathom a matter." (Proverbs 25:2)
ReplyDeleteI'd love the Give Thanks set. I also love the jar kit and may have to order a few of those to make for gifts.
ReplyDeleteI would do the custom ones, and have upcoming memory verses for our curriculum printed so I could stick them in my van to review on the go.
ReplyDeleteI like many of them, Give Thanks, God has a plan and I love the jar!!
ReplyDeleteId like to win the scripture jar kit. That idea is so appealing to me!
