Disclosure: I received a copy of the NIV Beautiful Word Coloring Bible for Girls from Zondervan (HarperCollins Christian Publishing) for this review. This post is sponsored by Zondervan.

I’ve been a 6th grade teacher for 22 years and one thing hasn’t changed in all that time — coloring pages are fun! Coloring pencils and markers are an affordable gifting option; you can pair them with a fresh stack of free printable coloring pages for an easy, budget-friendly gift. For a more permanent, memorable gift, consider the Beautiful Word Coloring Bible!

This beautiful Bible comes in a hot pink, polka dot cover. It’s irresistible!

I didn’t actually color in mine so that I could gift it to a little girl who needs a Bible. You can see from my photo that the color-able area is wide in the margin. What a fun way to decorate your Bible! This would have been so nice for my daughter when she was younger and needed help staying focused during church. She liked to doodle while she listened to the sermon. Having an coloring area would have been helpful.

Some of the pages contain space for notes, too. You can see from the right side of the page spread that lines are provided for note-taking and journaling.

I love that this Bible is in the NIV format. When the verses mentioned in church or Bible study come from the NIV, you’ll want your girl to be able to participate by reading from the same version.

The Beautiful Word Coloring Bible for Girls makes such a lovely gift! It’s also available in a gender-neutral version.

Using the accurate, readable, and clear New International Version (NIV) text makes the Bible accessible and easy-to-read for kids. The NIV is the result of over 50 years of work by the Committee on Bible Translation, who oversee the efforts of many contributing scholars. Representing the spectrum of evangelicalism, the translators come from a wide range of denominations and various countries and continually review new research to ensure the NIV remains at the forefront of accessibility, relevance, and authority. Every NIV Bible that is purchased helps Biblica translate and give Bibles to people in need around the world.

Who would you share this Bible with?

If you don’t have a little girl in your life to share this Bible with, consider gifting it to a friend with a daughter. You might even donate it to a church so they can share it with someone in need.
