Quirky Critter Devotions: 52 Wild Wonders for Kids book description:
Quirky Critter Devotions sets you on an animal-themed expedition to uncover wildly weird facts, journal your thoughts, and gain hands-on experience with zoo-tastic activities! Discover a wide range of crazy-cool critters spanning seven animal categories—mammals, insects, amphibians, birds, fish, reptiles, and spiders. From familiar faces like turtles and honey bees to incredible creatures like the Goliath bird-eating spider, this devotional is sure to cultivate a passion for God’s Word and his creation.
Each entry features:
- Fast Facts highlighting the animal’s scientific name, other common names, length, and diet
- A devotion bursting with astounding discoveries and spiritual truths
- Journaling space to unpack real-life applications
- A memory verse and prayer to connect with God
- A Wild Wonder fun fact with a humorous animal doodle
- A Creature Connection activity like a craft, game, or snack
The perfect blend of Scripture and science, this exciting and informative devotional will expand the minds and grow the curiosity of your young ones. A fantastic gift for the animal lover in your life.
Are you ready? Take a look at these adorable burrowing owls! I love the mix of photographs and doodle art on the cover which also reflects the interior spreads.
After the main text, there's an opportunity for the reader to dive into life application through journaling along with a final fun fact called Wild Wonder. A Bible verse and sample prayer are also included. The Creature Connection gives readers the opportunity to connect with the animal even more. It might be through a craft, activity, or game related to the animal. When appropriate, many devotions end with Into the Wild encouraging kids to get outdoors and interact with the quirky critter.
I learned so much about this incredible world as I researched and wrote. I can't wait to hear what readers think of Quirky Critter Devotions. Did you know it's my first faith-based book?
