Splash Into Scripture This Summer with the Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids

Summer is the perfect time to slow down, make memories as a family, and create meaningful habits that last long after vacation ends. One thing I always try to focus on during the summer months is helping my children stay connected to God’s Word in a fun and engaging way. That’s why I was excited to check out the Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids and companion resources from Holman Bible Publishers.

If you’re looking for ways to encourage your kids to grow in their faith while school is out, these resources are a wonderful place to start.

Many thanks to Lifeway Christian Resources for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are 100% my own.

Bringing the Bible to Life for Kids

The Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids was intentionally designed to accompany the award-winning CSB Explorer Bible for Kids, and together they make Bible study approachable and exciting for children.

Inside the dictionary, kids can explore over 750 Bible terms with easy-to-understand definitions that help explain the people, places, and important concepts found throughout Scripture. What really stood out to me was how visually engaging it is. The colorful illustrations, maps, photos, and reconstructions help kids connect with what they’re reading in a deeper way.

This resource feels less like a textbook and more like an adventure through God’s Word.

Perfect for Curious and Creative Kids

One thing I love most about these resources is how they encourage independent exploration while still creating opportunities for family discipleship. Whether you’re using them during morning Bible time, summer quiet time, homeschool lessons, or bedtime devotions, they make Scripture feel accessible and exciting.

The companion products are also a great addition for families wanting to create consistent Bible study habits:

- CSB Explorer Bible for Kids
- Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids
- Scripture Memory Cards

The Scripture Memory Cards are especially helpful for reinforcing key Bible truths in a simple and fun way. I love resources that make faith conversations feel natural throughout the day, and these cards are easy to incorporate into everyday routines.

Encouraging Joyful Bible Habits This Summer

As parents, we often spend summer trying to balance fun activities with continued learning opportunities. I appreciate that these resources combine both. They invite kids to ask questions, dig deeper into Scripture, and build a lifelong relationship with God’s Word.

If your family is hoping to “splash into Scripture” this summer, these resources are a meaningful way to help kids stay rooted in truth while keeping Bible study engaging and age appropriate.
