For Children Only, Volume Ii: a Book of Object Lessons for Young Children

"Using simple objects found around the house, young children?from preschool to elementary age?can learn about God, Jesus, the Bible, and spiritual living. In For Children Only, Volume II, author Una Wright has compiled a collection of stories to teach children how to lead a Christian life. This second volume of object lessons contains eighty-two activities that can be used in brief devotional time with parents, church leaders, and pastors. The stories relate to both the Old and New Testament and also include stories for special occasions and seasons. Each narrative features a common household object, a related Scripture reading, the lesson, and a follow-up prayer. For example, "A Cheer for Jesus" uses a pompom or school pennant, and the lesson likens cheering at a ball game to praising God. "What's in the Wrapper" shows wrapped pieces of candy or gum; the lesson illustrates that actions demonstrate a love of Jesus. Encompassing a wide range of values, For Children Only, Volume II imparts important life lessons through easy-to-understand discussions and use of familiar objects."
