Letter to Parents101 Color & Sing Bible Stories

READ IT! COLOR IT! SING IT!Welcome to the adventure! Truly it is! As you begin using 101 Color & Sing Bible Stories, you’ll notice that it’s a little different from other children’s books. Why? This book has been uniquely designed to get kids excited about reading these timeless Bible stories and exploring them in a whole new way.

We began by creating an engaging Bible storybook that’s easy to read, with over 100 incredible illustrations. But that was just the beginning! We then took each illustration that appears in the book and converted it into a line-art coloring book image. This way, kids can look at the full-color illustrations in the book and enjoy coloring them in their own special way. And as they color, they can sing along with 101 favorite Bible songs—one to go with every single story—all contained on the CDs included.

Watch as your kids interact with the Bible like never before. Now they can READ about creation . . . COLOR a picture of creation . . . and SING about creation . . . all with this one amazing book! We hope you will enjoy this wonderful new expression of God’s love for children!

READ IT! COLOR IT! SING IT!

Genesis 1:1-13

In the beginning, there was only darkness.

But everything changed when God said,

“Let there be light!” Suddenly on that very

first day, God created every color of the

rainbow! On the second colorful day, God

made the beautiful blue sky. On the third

day, He made the tall green mountains,

the rich brown earth, and the deep blue

sea! Everything God made was good.

God Creates the Heavens and the Earth

Did you know that giraffes are the tallest animals that live on land? They can grow to be 18 feet tall! That’s as high as a two-story house!

Genesis 1:11-25

On the third day, God made all the plants

and trees with leaves in every shade of

green. He even made trees with oranges,

apples, and bananas. Then He made

flowers in every color you can imagine.

On the fourth day, God made the bright

yellow sun, the silvery moon, and millions

of twinkling white stars. On the fifth day, God

filled the oceans with fish—red fish, green

fish, and even rainbow fish. He made the

blue birds and orange butterflies, too. On the

sixth day, God made all the land animals.

Everything God made was good. But He

wasn’t finished yet!

DISC 1 • SONG 3 • COLORING PAGE 3

Did you know that God made Adam out of dust?

Genesis 1:26–2:15

After God made all the plants and animals,

God made His greatest creation: the very

first person. The man’s name was Adam,

and God was VERY happy with what He

had made! God loved all His creation, but

He loved Adam in a special way. Adam

was made in God’s own image! God put

Adam in a beautiful garden called Eden.

It was a perfect home with everything he

needed. God gave Adam work to do. His

job was to take care of the colorful garden

God had made.
