Too Much?

Personally I feel like that would be too much. For younger.children I dont feel a Bible “study” is necessary. Read the Bible, build off Sunday School lessons if you would like to, but a complete different study I do not feel necessary.

I agree.  🙂  I’ve learned it’s important to do something well rather than do it all.

We are reading through the Bible in 2 years for our evening devotions.  I decided that is plenty for us.  We have a shorter devotion on Sundays (our Bible readings are scheduled Mon-Sat).  We also do a bit of recitation with verses, Catechism, and hymns.

In the past we’ve done shorter evening devotions, one longer weekly study, and our memory work, plus Sunday school.  This also seemed to work well.

Module 1’s Bible readings are wonderful, so I definitely would go with those for the coming year.  Add in some hymns and memory, and maybe a short evening devotion.  I would be hesitant to add in an extra Bible program.

I have 6 kiddos ages 9, 8, 6, 5, 4 & 2.  So, 4 of my kids are 1st grade and under.  We do Simply Charlotte Mason Bible reading and do scripture memory.  We usually always read a portion of scripture before bed.  So, on the days Bible is not assigned, they are still hearing the scriptures.  I agree with these ladies.  Keep it simple for sure.  🙂

Sometimes simple is best.  The Bible in SCM guides is great for school and just reading through a chapter or portion of a book of the bible together as a family as many evenings or mornings a week as you can is really enough.
