A is for Adam Coloring Book: Creativity for Pre-readers and their Christian Parents - Al Hiebert - Bog

This first activity book of the Growing up in Christ series helps kids have fun with Mom and Dad as they color the pictures, add their own features, learn the English alphabet, and learn to love God and His Word with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength. It also equips Christian parents to empower their pre-school kids to grow up in Christ in a messed-up world. Focused on kids ages 2 to 5 each alphabet letter features a pithy nursery rhyme and a sketch to color that highlights a Bible character or a biblical value to help kids grow up in Christ in our secularized world. At parents' discretion, discussing the questions raised under most of the sketches to color may provoke bonding conversations between parents and their kids about many core dimensions of a faithful Christian life and its challenges, including bullying and sex. This series is written from a biblical creation-fall-redemption-consummation perspective. Kids learn to see themselves and others as being created in God's image. Hence, they and all people deserve love and respect, regardless of their sometimes messed-up beliefs, behaviors, and relationships. The Parents' Appendix suggests more ideas and Scriptures that parents may choose to add to these discussions. The Parents' Supplement lists other books in this series, including a full color version: "A is for Adam."
