This week as we are looking at how to study the Bible, here are some activities that you can use with your kiddos to for reinforcement. These “jots and tittles” can be used however you see fit in your family or homeschool Bible time. 🙂

Monday

Let’s practice some handwriting along with our memory verse from Psalm 119:10.

Tuesday

It’s time to get the kiddos in on the learning plan for this year (school year)! If kids have some say-so, then they often will feel more invested in their learning. Talk to your kiddos and take their ideas into consideration. How would your littles like to explain what they have learned back to you? Let them teach the lessons back to you when you are done to see if they have retained the information. Will they act the lesson out? Will they simply narrate? Maybe they would rather draw a picture, or build the scene with Legos? I’ve even been known to let them make a Minecraft world to show me that they understood the material that we were learning. Would your older kiddos rather narrate or maybe write a short synopsis in a Bible study notebook?

Friday

Don’t forget to check out the Pinterest board that includes lots of different ideas on how to study the Bible for you and your littles!

Also, don’t forget to find Jots and Tittles on Facebook or Instagram, and share what you are using for Bible study this year! It is my prayer that these jots and tittles for your littles will help you and your family figure out the best way to study the Bible together.

Hi, there! Here are a few ideas for Bible activities for littles as you work to implement more Bible study time for your kids. Your bigger kids may use some of these ideas also, but they can also jump in with you in this week’s “jot and tittles for mamas” page.

Monday

Do you know any songs about reading the Bible?

Pick a song that you can sing all week! It can be a “kid’s song” or a hymn. Some ideas are “The B-I-B-L-E” or “The More We Read the Bible.” If you don’t know any songs, then check out one list here, or search YouTube for songs that you can learn! I especially like the song “Read Your Bible and Pray Everyday” to go with this week’s theme. Singing songs and hymns can play a very integral part in Bible study for kids.

Tuesday, Wednesday, & Thursday

The memory verse for this week is a little long, so I’ve divided it into three parts for memory and writing practice.

Research has shown that the more that you interact with a reading or a subject, the more likely you are to remember it. By listening to a memory verse, then saying it, and then writing it (if your littles are of writing age), they are much more likely to remember it. Bonus points if you can put the words to music or use hand or body motions to help cement those words in their minds. Who am I kidding? These options aren’t just helpful for the littles, but tired mama brains can use them, too!

Friday

Keep singing your song and keep practicing your memory verse. Talk to your family about why you think it is important to learn more about God’s Word. It is so great that you are learning from the Bible at a young age because it will help you for the rest of your life! I’m proud of you!

Final thoughts for the week

Finally! We made it! These are just some examples of Bible activities for littles. You can check out our Pinterest board for more ideas that you can use in Bible study for kids. Most importantly, keep reading your Bible and praying to God this week and beyond!
