About this title

Review:

Story Box Bible Tales offers Bible stories accompanied by simple, everyday objects. Like a Generation Game conveyor belt, the objects act as memory aids for the children recalling the story, and this is followed by questions that help children to reflect further. The objects include simple things such as a paper crown to symbolise kingship, or a piece of blue fabric for water. A craft idea accompanies each story and completes each session. From the Church Times
