Bibles and Apps
Reading the bible with our kids is very important. Below are some recommended bibles and apps. Apps should never replace reading together but if you want to read from a device or promote some independence, try some of these suggestions.
The Big Little Bible
The Big Little Bible by New Zealand Bible Society. Available on Apple and Android or in hardback version. You can also borrow this from our CV library.
The Storybook Bible for Kids
The Storybook Bible for Kids is great for preschoolers and early readers. Includes some animations to bring the story to life.
Engage
Engage by Scripture Union. An app for intermediates/youth. The text is read to you in either English or Maori. Also includes some discussion questions.
