• Concept enables kids to rote learn Bible verses (learning through repetition)
• Well known Bible stories helps the child understand meaning of the verse
• List of helpful tips on memory techniques included
• Using real Bible text
• Popular concept that is easy to adapt and/or translate using any Bible translation

Rote learning Bible verses establishes truth in our hearts and helps us - both young and old - to become better decision makers. But to achieve this the basic underlying concepts and principles must be understood. This is why emphasis is put on explaining the memory verse in an easy-to-understand, Biblical context: to ensure the actual wording as well as the meaning can later be recalled. 

Pictures, Bible verses, explanatory texts and the rhyming prompt are all helpful hooks the child's brain can use to save the verse, making it easier for the child to absorb the meaning and let it settle within.

To encourage repetition during the reading session a manageable rhyme is introduced by cute animal narrators. 

An animal character from each story helps the kids remember to repeat the verse.
