If you like this post, please share by choosing a button below! I am sure that there are other great resources that I am not aware of, so I really would love suggestions. If you have Bible resources that you would like to recommend, please leave a comment. It is better than any other children’s Bible series that I have ever come across. So, if you are looking for Bible resources, I highly recommend the Animated Bible Stories. My kids can recount Bible stories and characters better than many adults. I usually don’t allow that much TV, but they were learning so much about the Bible that I gave in. In fact, when we first got the Animated Bible Stories my kids watched it everyday. No matter how real to life the DVD set is, it would have little value if my kids never wanted to watch it.

The Animated Bible Stories looks and acts “real.” Finally, my kids love these DVD’s and that is also important. When my children watch a Bible series, I want them to understand that the video is depicting real characters and historical events. The problem with this is that it makes it hard for children to decipher between the fair tales that they watch and the Biblical accounts. Many kids’ DVD’s are so concerned with being silly and exciting, that they transform the characters into unrealistic superior heroes or the other extra extreme of silly clowns. I also like how realistic the actions, language and graphics are. By accurate, I obviously mean that they follow the Biblical stories without adding a lot of extras. I prefer the Animated Bible because the DVD’s are accurate, realistic and entertaining.

They have an awesome DVD collection that I feel is 100 times more valuable than “Veggie Tales” or any other such Bible DVD series. The Bible resource that I like best is called the Animated Bible from Nest Learning. Having said all that, I will give you a “Bible” resource that I think can greatly enhance your kids’ Bible studies, as long as it is not used to replace the actual Bible. However, we use them for family entertainment and not a substitute for real study in God’s Word. My kids love the shows and watch them often. You can probably tell from the title “The Wonderful Wizard of Ha’s,” that it did not do justice to Christ’s parable. The other day my daughters were watching Veggie Tales and the video was supposed to illustrate the Biblical parable of the lost son. The problem is that they have very little to do with the actual Bible stories. Veggies Tales is really funny and it does, in its own way, portray Biblical truths. Sadly, their substitutes often lack real substance, and serve more as entertainment. Instead of reading the Bible, they carefully select a handful of Bible – substitutes. For some reason many parents assume that kids are incapable of understanding and appreciating the Bible in and of itself.

I guess they were thinking of Veggie Tales, or something along those lines. Most of them are shocked when I tell them the Bible. People often ask me what I think are the best Bible resources for their young kids (3-8 yrs).
