There is a verse and applicational story for each letter of the alphabet. Everyone in our house learned the 26 verses while learning to apply them to situations little kids can relate too. The list of verses is excellent! The stories are fun and very real. I highly recommend this title for any parent of kids 3-7 years old. The author places a big emphasis that when we memorized God’s Word the Holy Spirit will help us make right choices as a result.

Another thing we do at home is to make a list of a verses for common wrong attitudes we are all guilty of. Whenever our kids (or us as parents) are caught acting the wrong way we will quote the verse. Our kids have memorized all verses by now without the need of drilling, but hearing them regularly as we walk by the way. It’s fun to hear even my 4 year old quote Philippians 2:14 when his older brother starts complaining or Psalm 34:13 when someone teases him.

How cool the kids must find Seeds Music! I love it! What an ingenious way to remember Scripture!
