Morning friends!

Have you seen the new NIrV Adventure Bible for Early Readers, a Bible for kids, from Zondervan? When I think of Bibles I immediately think of Zondervan, who has been my go-to for years. Both of my main Bibles are published by this well-known Christian company as well as the Bibles my children use each day.

I chose to use the NIrV Adventure Bible for Early Readers with my son, Micah, who is 7. Since the Adventure Bible is geared towards kids 6-10 years old he is at a great age for this Bible. Before receiving this Bible Micah used a Zondervan NIV Boys’ Bible in the NIV translation for his daily Bible study. While I do like this Boys’ Bible, he found the NIrV Adventure Bible more appealing as it includes 20 full color pages of Bible fun presented in a safari theme.

The Adventure Bible for Early Readers is an 8 1/2 inches tall by 5 1/2 wide Bible that comes in the New International Reader’s Version (NIrV) that comes in a glossy, soft-covered edition with over 1500 pages. As a complete Bible, it covers all 66 books from Genesis to Revelation and it is meant for readers on a 3rd grade reading level and up. This Bible retails for $22.49.

The NIrV makes a great first kid’s Bible for new readers, readers whose first language is not English, or adults just getting acquainted with the Bible. It is written in an easy-to-read 9-point font at a third grade reading level. It is also accurately aligned with the New International Version (NIV) but uses shorter sentences and easier to understand words.

Inside the covers you will find:

~ 20 full-color pages filled with Bible information presented in a jungle safari theme

~ Introductions for each book

~ Words to treasure and great verses to memorize

~ A dictionary/concordance for looking up unfamiliar words

~ Color maps that show places from the Bible

~ Articles & Illustrations that describe what life was like during ancient times

~ Close up looks at the amazing people of the Bible

~ Interesting facts to help you better understand God’s Word

~ Hands-on activities to apply biblical truths to your daily life

Micah is enjoying using this Bible for his daily Bible time! I love that it is written on his level so that he can dive into God’s Word easier. I know that Micah will be able to use this Bible for many more years to come before we transition back to our Zondervan NIV Boys’ Bible.

As Easter approaches you may be looking for a first Bible for your 6-10 year old. Hands down the NIrV Adventure Bible for Early Readers is an excellent Bible to purchase! But don’t just take my word for it! Check out what 21 of my CrewMates think of this Bible for kids by clicking the banner below.
