I recently had a parent email me about getting a good full text Bible for their child and thought our correspondence might benefit other parents as well in search of a Bible for their child this Christmas.
Here are my suggestions of a few options that should be applicable for kids from younger early readers all the way through middle school and all of which will hopefully encourage your child to grow in their love for and reading of God’s Word. A lot of your decision will be around desired translation first, then looking at the cool added stuff inside to see what you think will most connect with your child.
#1 - ESV Seek & Find Bible - ideal for reading while at church since BCC uses the ESV which will be more and more beneficial in the older grade levels
Christian Books - (Here)
Amazon - (Here)
#2 - CSB Big Picture Interactive Bible - company is very focused on parents’ interaction with their children & has tried to also bring cool spin on technology to their graphics
Christian Books - (Here)
Amazon - (Here)
#3 - NIV Kid's Visual Study Bible - easy to read translation with more of a study Bible focus with lots of added info & pics to keep kids thinking & will easily transfer with him to older grade levels
Christian Books - (Here)
Amazon - (Here)
#4 - NIrV Adventure Bible for Early Readers - easy to read & understand translation geared toward the youngest reading audience still wanting the full text of the Bible

#5 - NIV Adventure Bible - again an easy to read translation geared toward slightly older kids

Hopefully that gives you some tracks to run on and some great options that will connect well with your child! Know too that many of these have varying covers that might appeal more to your child’s gender and interests. =)
May your child greatly benefit from and enjoy their time in the Word!
