Chronological Bible storytelling with coloring sheets and leader's guides are available to teach topics from Creation to Salvation from ChristinAnswers.Net. Many of these are available translated into several other languages.

To help children get a glimpse of the "big picture" and how the Bible fits together, use this children's Bible timeline which includes pictures of familiar Bible stories and the dates in which they occurred.

Bible stories & Childrens Bible Lessons with additional activities are offered free from Sunday School Resources too.

Use these printable Bible activity worksheets for take-home review or as an extra fun activity. They include Bible crossword puzzles, mazes, word-searches and more for over fifty Bible stories.

Another really fun activity is to have a Treasure Hunt! Use Bible verses as clues that will eventually lead to a special treat. This is also an exciting way to practice Bible drills!

Christian bulletin boards are a great way to add a visual element to a lesson or they may be a lesson in and of themselves. Remember... by stimulating the five senses, we are helping students retain a greater amount of the material being taught.

Still another vital part of teaching children the Bible is helping them with Bible memory work. We have attempted to bring you several creative Bible activities, games, and coloring sheets that will help change the "work" into fun! We've included the "famous" Books of the Bible song along with Books of the Bible flash cards which are great for teaching preschoolers too. While they are young is the prime time to take advantage of their amazing ability to memorize.
