Combine and make a lesson!

As a homeschooling mom one of my highest hopes is that my children have beautiful handwritting and memorize scriptures. ;}

The Lord gave me a great idea to combine the two!

My 8year lil boy~

If you homeschool your children or not this is a great way for your children to memorize scriptures by writting them down.

I place scriptures all around my home..oh how they have helped me in a time of trouble! As a mamma our days can be long and reading a scripture, saying it outloud lifts me up! Its a tool for tough times, situations..a guide for anything that comes our way. I recently heard a speech about presenting the Bible to our children as our instruction book..isnt that the truth? It sets me on the right path daily!

I hope you can add this into your child's day. handwritting and scripture memorization in one, love that! :]

Studying the Word with your Children: Proverbs16:24

We start our homeschool day with a Bible lesson, we have been reading through a childrens bible and really enjoying it together. I also want my children meditating in the scriptures and understanding God's word.

I try to make it fun for my kids. Today we studyied "Kind words are like honey- enjoyable and healthful." Proverbs 16:24

We looked the scripture up in our bibles, said the verse outloud a few times. I want them to memorize scriptures, this is a goal of mine to do also.

I find when we make it fun, its easier to memorize!! We often color and snack while enjoying God's Word. Keeps my children intrested as well! ;~)

I passed around a bowl of honey and had the children take a dip with their finger and describe how the honey tasted. They all agreed its sweet.

We then discussed how are words are to be sweet. I asked them to tell me some sweet words..my daughter said "you are beautiful" Very sweet word :)

God wants us to be sweet to others not only for their benefit but for ours. The thought amazes me! Gods perfect plan for us..its always so good.

We looked up the word 'healthful' in our dictionary. The word means, beneficial, good health.

No only does our sweet words make someones day but it is healthy for our bodies, for our souls!!

My son wrote this verse twice to perfect his handwritting, bonus 2 lessons in 1!!

I hope you try this activity with your children and discuss God's word with them!! Happy home educating Mammas!
