About the Dictionary: The Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids is intentionally designed to accompany the ECPA award-winning CSB Explorer Bible for Kids. ​​

Within its engaging, full-color pages, kids will interact with over 750 common Bible terms paired with concise definitions to enhance their understanding of the people, places, and things of the Bible. Fascinating images, illustrations, maps, and reconstructions are featured throughout to increase comprehension and help kids apply key terms and truths of the Bible. ​

This unique reference resource is perfect for use at home, church, or school and created to grow with your kids as they grow in Christ.​ 

My thoughts: Summer isn't just time for splashing in the pool, soaking in the sun, or whacking a ball out of the park time for kids. It means "down time" and time just being a kid. But kids still need tools at hand that will engage their minds so they don't get a case of brain-rot over the summer.   

Sometimes kids just want to kick back, lie down on the floor, prop up on a pillow and indiscriminately read through a dictionary or similar reference work. Surprised? Don't be! Kids are more real-information-oriented than you'd imagine. Short blips of information, and in a children's edition - the pictures, give them just the amount of chill-time information they want at that particular time. Unknown to them, they are also learning, educating themselves, and storing bits of information in their divinely given brain that has a huge amount of room for storage. 

Sometimes, we as parents, grandparents, educators, and theologians want to sit the children down with text books, Bibles, and dictionaries and give assigned tasks designed to educate them. We should also provide the means for some quiet, self-directed perusal of books so children can personally and quietly glean for themselves the treasures tucked away in the quiet turn of a page.

All these occasions are perfect times to have a copy of The Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids on hand. Yes, I said, "Dictionary." This volume with attention snaring illustrations, colors that please the senses, information bits about interesting people, places and things are all neatly organized and presented. The dictionary will be a welcome addition to the homeschool library and the homes of those who attend private, parochial, or public schools. 

In today's world of technology, with computer, laptop, ipad, or phones on which we have billions of bits of data stored and available to us with a simple "click," few people think of a book - a "dictionary" - as a tool for learning. But a book filled to the brim with illustrations, colorful pages, snippets of information (definitions) all organized with easy-to-find information is a vastly important tool for learning. And kids can and do enjoy these books.

This is a great introductory Bible Dictionary to acquaint kids with the skill of seeking further information and descriptions of people, places, things in the Bible to aid in their better understanding of Scripture. I highly recommend.

The Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids is intentionally designed to pair with the Explorer Bible for Kids, but it will work as a stand-alone book of reference or to use with other Bibles. I reviewed the Explorer Bible for Kids previously and you can read my review here. Purchase dictionary: click here.
