Other information
XTB (eXplore The Bible) is a series of daily Bible reading notes for children of the 7-11 age group, with puzzles, pictures and prayers.XTB is beautifully presented with full-color illustrations and is a series of 12 books which, if used on a quarterly basis, will help a child cover all of the main books, themes and characters of the Bible in 3 years.
Look out for Table Talk - a book of daily Bible times for families with children aged from 4 upwards. The Bible passages are the same each day for XTB and Table Talk - so you can use the two books together, or on their own. Whichever suits you best.

- Days 16-29 make a start in Genesis, chs 1-9.

- Day 31 starts Matthew and continues to Day 50, ending in ch 7.

Great little kids devotional
My eldest kids are 9 and 7 and we use this book as part of our morning devotions. The kids really like it because the activities are interesting and not too difficult for them. Although the scripture readings are quite short, the questions and activities really get the kids to engage with what they have read. Also, you stay with the same book for a while so there is good continuity - if they are distracted one day, they usually get more understanding the next day. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was that I think it's quite light and I supplement it with Discover For Yourself Bible Studies For Kids from Precept Ministries which we do later in the day. All in all though, these are fantastic resources (one needed for each child) and I would highly recommend them. ![]()
Great buy for kids that like to do written activities
(Review written for 'XTB: Christmas Unpacked')
My 7 year old daughter has done several books in this series and loves them. This one did not disappoint ! She loved the rescue sticker. The teaching was very clear and made me think too! ![]()
