It all started when our oldest was about 2-years old. Seeing as that little boy is almost a college graduate and God has started us on a brand new journey of raising and fostering children – we thought it was time to bring back the Scripture Memory Cards our family has been using for so long. But we also thought they needed a make-over! Look how beautiful!
There are 12 Scripture Memory Cards in all!
For years and years, we have used our family meal times for Bible reading and Scripture memory. When our boys were little, while we sat at the table for lunch or dinner, we started a practice that got dubbed “Repeat Afters.” Mom and Dad would speak a few lines of scripture, the kids would repeat after us, and we’d continue phrase-by-phrase until the verse was complete. Like this:
Dad: In the beginning…
Kids and Mom: In the beginning
Dad: God created…
Kids and Mom: God created
Dad: the heavens and the earth.
Kids and Mom: the heavens and the earth.
The kids and Mom all took turns leading “Repeat Afters” too. So when our first set of kids was little, we’d work together to recite six verses during each meal.
In no time at all, our little ones learned scripture after scripture in this way! The more they learned and the older they got, the more scripture we added to the repertoire. And as their understanding grew, we continued to add scriptures that helped us with parenting needs. Such as:
As far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Romans 12:18
Siblings sometimes need to hear that one, am I right? ;)
