5 Bible verses to teach your child

5 Bible Verses for Toddlers and Preschoolers to Memorize

My first time in college I had a wonderful Counselor/Advisor Clara Fowler.  She knew I had a lot going on in my life and she was a devout Christian woman.  One thing she did for me is had me to memorize scriptures and come back to her office and from memory recite the scripture.  It helped a lot for me I felt I was getting closer to God and I was learning God's word at the same time!  When I seen this on Pinterest I knew I had to make a blog about it! 




These verses are going to be the ones that this age group will will benefit from to overcome the natural tendencies that are demonstrated often during the toddler and preschool ages.



1.  Children Obey Your Parents
In Ephesians 6:1, it reads, “Children obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.”2.  Be Kind to Others
In Romans 12:10, we find, ”Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;”

3.  Loving Others
In John 13:34, we are commanded, “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.In Romans 12:9, we are exhorted, “Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good.”

4.  Sharing with Others
In Luke 6:31, we are instructed, “Do to others as you would have them do to you.”
5.  Forgiving Others
In Ephesians 4:32, in states, “And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.”

I plan on teaching Maddox these when he is old enough.
