A wonderful way to begin a new year with our kids is by begining a Bible reading program with them.
Using the NCV (New Century Version®) Bible in a Year, kids can actually read through the entire Bible in one year. This hardback Bible is perfect for both boys and girls ages 8-13, around a 5th or 6th grade reading level.

Actually, this Bible structured in a unique way that allows the child to read through in a year, or in two years. The beginning introduction of the Bible explains exactly how it can be done.
About this Bible-
Our children need to make every day God’s day, and nothing will help them do that more than reading His Word. The unique Bible in a Year with New Century Version® text guides kids to easily read through the entire Bible in 365 days. The simple-to-understand language is divided into daily portions that include selections from both the Old and New Testaments, as well as Psalms and Proverbs.
This Bible also offers 16 pages of color inserts that allow for personalization and reinforce biblical knowledge. Features include: presentation page, Bible timeline, My Favorite Bible Verses, How Do I Pray?, Why Should I Read the Bible?, How Do I Forgive?, Bible Verses to Know, and more!

Earlier this year we were discussing with our kids different Bible reading programs. My oldest two are in the youth group at our church, and they’ve given them a great plan to follow. However, my sixth grade son, who isn’t quite as structured as the oldest in following reading plans, asked if I could find him a Bible already “set up” for him to be able to read through it in a way he would understand.
When I had the opportunity to review this Bible in a Year, I knew right away it would be perfect for him.
We gave it to him for Christmas this year, and he’s already excited for the new year to begin so he can start his reading.

It's very important it keeps them grounded in morals.
I think it is as it helps them learn more about the bible.
Yes, I think that it is important
I think it's important for children as they age to have a Bible reading plan line out for them so they can develop the habit of reading the Word. I didn't have this as a child and I have struggled to develop the habit of reading the Bible as an adult.
I think it is extremely important, they need to learn how to seek answers when they need to.
We would love for our kids to choose this on their own as they grow, and hopefully with a solid foundation as they grow they will.
We have a family Bible reading plan
I do think it is very important for them to have and follow a bible reading plan.
I think it's extremely important for kids to read the bible daily… Right now my kids read daily devotions but this bible would be perfect for them !
absolutely! I think a family plan is better. Children need the whole family to be a part of it
yes I beleive it is very important
oh it is so important, family & the bible such a perfect fit, thanks
It is extremely important!
It's very important for kids to read their bible. I think it's also great to lead by example and have family time.
It's important for our kids to read the Bible.
Yes! I wish I had a bible reading plan when I was a child.
Definitely! I think a plan helps keep them on track and builds a good habit of spending time reading God's word.
Yes, I think it's very important.
I think it's important.
Yes. I think it's important. A good refresher for parents as well!
I think it is important for "everyone" to have a Bible reading plan.
It is VERY important! We need to plant a seed in them as children! They will need God throughout
their life!
I think it's important for everyone to have a Bible reading plan! 🙂 Hiding the Word in their heart at a young age is wonderful, and getting into the habit of reading the Bible is so important. Thanks! My name in the entry form is Lynda Thomas… I can only log in as my husband to comment. lol!
Yes, I do. It's important for me, too! 🙂
My kids have never had a Bible reading plan. It does seem like a good idea, though.
I think them knowing what the bible stands for and what's inside is more important than them actually reading it. I do think it's a good idea and a child's version will definitely help them relate.
Yes, I believe it's important that they read and learn to apply the messages.
yes it's important for adults and children to have a reading plan
I think it's a great idea, and it would motivate me to read the Bible.
Yes, for children and adults
Absolutely! We all know how easy it is to allow things to keep us (as adults) from being in the Word daily. Starting that habit as youngsters can only help them maintain it as adults!
I think it is very important. The Bible is the guideline to our lives.
I sure do and am trying to figure how to do that with my 2 year old.
I think it is important for children to read the bible. I like the idea of a one year plan. Thank you

Very much so!
I think it's very important for children to have a Bible reading plan. Without one, the children of our future will know little to nothing about God's plan for us. We aren't as consistent as we would like to be, but we will sit as a family and read with the kids. One of the most fulfilling experiences was when I walked in on one of my twin girls reading the bible to her classroom of stuffed animals!! 😉
Yes I believe its important for children to have a Bible reading plan.Our would would be in a better state I think if we had GOD more involved in our lives more 🙂
Yes I think it's important!
