A note to Parents
Hello and welcome to Quiet Times for Kids! We are so glad you chose to use our products to help disciple and train your precious little ones. In 2 Timothy Gods Word commands us to Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15 If you are anything like our family, it is your deepest desire to see your children walking in the truth and to ground them in the fertile soil of Gods Word. It is our prayer that our Bible study resources will be a tremendous blessing to you and your family as you seek to help your children learn how to accurately handle the word of truth. Please let us know how our Bible studies have helped your family and feel free to contact us with any questions you might have!

Getting Started
The first thing you will do is to make a Bible Study Notebook for each of your children. We recommend that you use a binder with a 1 inch spine or bigger. You will also need a set of tabbed dividers to separate each of the individual studies that your child completes. In the appendix of this file you will find a printable Bible Study Notebook cover page that you can insert in the front pocket of the binder. Print the cover page out and sit down with your child as they write their name and decorate their cover page. This binder will become a real treasure to you and your child as you see the progress and growth your child makes. It also can be a sweet testimony to the faithfulness of Gods Word and an evangelistic tool as your child shares it with friends, family and neighbors. Here are a few examples of our childrens Bible Study Binders:

After you have completed the binders the next step is for you to print out one copy of pages 4-13 of this document for each child. Punch holes in those pages and instert them into their binder. Lable the divider Animals in the Bible. If you are planning on having you child complete Volume One, you can label the next five labels with the following titles: - Proverbs - Names of Jesus - 30 Days with Jesus - Sermon Notes - Prayer Journal We recommend going through the fist study along with your child to help them understand the process and to answer any questions they may have. We also recommend finding a good time of day to set aside for your children to devote to their personal Bible study. For some families this my be something you may want them to complete first thing in the morning, even before breakfast. For others it may be the first assignment you give them to start off their school day. This can be a blessing to mom as it will give her a little time to prepare the lessons for the rest of the day as the children work on their Bible Study Notebooks. In our family we have found that the best time for us is in the afternoon while our little ones are napping. We have always made it a practice to have the whole family take a quiet time around 3:00 in the afternoon and having these Bible studies has been an invaluable tool to give our older, non-napping children something productive and edifying to do while the little ones nap. We encourage you to try different times of the day until you find what works best for your family. Also note that in the appendix you will find short answers to each question for the parents.

We pray Gods blessings on you and your family as you dig into Gods Word together!
