Bible Skills Activities

One of the best things any parent or teacher can do is to help children (while they're young) develop simple, basic, Bible skills such as memorizing the books of the Bible or understanding how the Bible is organized. We've tried to create a healthy library of free resources on Sunday School Zone to help parents and teachers in this important endeavor. In addition to articles about teaching Bible skills, we've compiled a list of free activities below that can help you teach these vital skills to kids.
