With its outstanding design and fun interactivity, Bible for Kids offers a concise and beautiful introduction to the sacred book of Christianity, proving to be highly appealing for children. This educational app is a good download for anyone who has kids, regardless of their religion.

Pros

Wonderful learning experience: Bible for Kids combines beautiful graphics and animations with text, special effects, and voice-over to narrate the most important stories of the Bible, from the creation of the world to the resurrection of Christ and beyond. What makes it instantly appealing for the little ones is the colorful design and the interactivity: Kids can discover touch-activated animations, from palm trees that hurl coconuts into the sea to excellently crafted facial gestures of Adam, Eve, and the other protagonists.

Engaging: Many essential stories from the Bible are included, and your kid can easily switch between them and complete them in any order he or she likes. The animations add fun to the learning experience, and the quizzes and interactivity required to animate characters or collect items make this application hard to quit.

Gorgeous design and animations: This app looks fantastic and has a great soundtrack and excellent voice narration. What's more, the animations and scenes are not only educational, but also witty and funny.

Cons

Downloads required: Almost all the interactive stories have to be downloaded before your kid can enjoy them. Downloads can weigh over a hundred MBs. If you're on a data plan, you can be in for a nasty surprise, especially since the size of downloads is not mentioned within the app.

Bottom Line

Whether you're a Christian or not, if you're trying to get your kid to read the Bible and learn the story of Christ, you will have more chances with this wonderfully intuitive and beautiful app than with a plain and basic book. This is overall an excellently crafted app that provides a hugely entertaining educational experience.
