I am currently doing Little Hands with a very wiggle 2 yr, 8 mo old little girl. She is ALWAYS wanting to be read to and often says "I'm reading" when she has a book herself. However she is often all over the place while *I* am reading. I often wonder if anything is sinking in.
First let me mention that we have TONS of books as that is a huge weakness for me. There is a lot for her to choose from, but the books she goes to the most is her "Bible". Bible in Pictures for Little Eyes. This book is all floppy and loose from her handling it so much. You can find it all over the house, especially by the potty chair. She needed to potty the other day and did a quick turn around saying "MY BIBLE!!" and ran to get it before going to her potty chair!!
Well, the other day Hannah was watching The Story of the Candy Cane and at the beginning they show the ark and the flood real quick. Hannah pointed to it and said, "In BIBLE!!" She had remembered the story and it had been a long while back since we had read it! This wiggly all over the place sweet heart remembered it!!
This being the largest part of Little Hands has made a starting impression on her relationship with the Lord. When she sees someone praying in her "Bible" she prays, all wiggly like, but she prays.
Simple as this little story is, I think it testifies to just how well the Bible is presented in HOD even from Preschool.
PS- This board needs more smilies!
