Teaching the Bible All Summer Long: Easy Ideas That Stick
Summer’s here! And while our routines shift and schedules relax, it’s the perfect time to weave the Bible into your family’s everyday moments—without adding stress or planning big lessons.
Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, or Bible teacher, here are a few easy (and fun!) ways to keep kids growing in God’s Word all summer long. Here are some fun ideas for teaching the Bible all summer!
1. Bible Time on the Go
Grab a Bible study journal or flash cards and toss them in your bag for road trips, park days, or waiting rooms. Even 5-minute reviews can keep timelines and verses fresh in their minds!
2. Bible + Art = Win
Break out crayons, paints, or chalk and let kids draw Bible stories, memory verses, or stick figure timelines. It’s creative, low-prep, and helps them remember what they’re learning.
3. One Verse a Week
Choose one memory verse each week to read, talk about, and post somewhere visible. Say it together at breakfast or bedtime. Keep it simple and repeat it often.
4. Connect to the Calendar
Explore biblical events that happened during the summer months using a Biblical Calendar. Learning how the Bible fits into real time helps kids see it as true history.
5. Table Talks
Start a weekly family Bible chat at the table. Use a simple question like, “What’s something you remember from the story of Moses?” or “Who’s your favorite Bible hero and why?”
🧩 6. Game Day with Bible Flash Cards
Turn review time into a game! Trivia cards are great for friendly competition—kids vs. parents, or siblings challenge round.
Keep it light. Keep it fun. Keep it going.
You don’t need a formal plan to teach the Bible this summer—just consistent touch points that help kids stay connected to God’s Word!
And when fall rolls around? You’ll be amazed at how much they remember!
