PRAY TOGETHER
Spend time in prayer with your kiddo thanking God for giving us His Word—the Bible. Thank Him for guiding the people who put together the Canon of the Old Testament and the New Testament. Ask Him for help to have faith in Him by believing He is who He says He is and will do what He has promised to do.
