Are you raising little ones in a faith-filled home? Perhaps you’d like to start a daily devotion time for your family.
Devotional books are an excellent way to teach our children about God and incorporate our faith into a daily routine. Just like learning a language, when we prioritize and value something on a daily basis, we see it grow.
Finding quality resources that will help us engage and teach our children is key. And if you’re raising little linguists in a bilingual home like me, it’s important to have resources in both languages.
So today I’m sharing eleven Spanish devotionals (or English!) for you to consider for your child. Read them aloud and discuss as a family. Or, choose one for your child to read independently. The books are organized by age – from youngest to oldest. They’d be a great gift idea!
I hope one of these amazing books can become a new favorite for you! Look for these titles at your local public library or a nearby bookshop. You can also explore more of our favorite books in Book Resources or Bilingual Balance’s Bookshop.
