The Animated Kid's Bible is an excellent way to get your kids interested in the classic Bible stories of the Old Testament. Even more importantly, it's a great
way for them to learn the lessons contained in each. Your kids will be
glued to the set, and they'll want to watch them over and over again.
Episode One contains the creation of the earth, the story of
Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, and the tale of Cain and Abel. The
video is 23 minutes and full of wonderful animation with realistic
movement, great visuals and a story your kids will never forget.
It
starts off at the very beginning of everything - God's creation of the
earth. Here the visuals are particularly stunning, as you see landscapes
forming, the first animals popping out of the life, and God's greatest
creation man being formed from the earth. The imagery is spectacular and
inspiring.
Then, we meet the first man
and woman. The story of the Garden of Eden presented here in the
Animated Kid's Bible is perfect for kids. You see Adam naming the
animals, scenes of the lush forest - and the creepiest character in the
whole series, the serpent.
The last part of the video is the murder story of Cain of Abel. This
has the most powerful lesson of all to teach your kids. The murder
scene is chilling and it will give your kids lots to think about.
After
you watch the story, Pip the Penguin, a delightful character, appears
to lead you through the DVD's special features. These include...
In-depth
character profiles where you can learn more about Adam, Eve, Cain,
Abel, the serpent and two characters, Seth and Enoch, who are not
featured in the video but play an important role in the story. The
details include more background on the characters, as well as the
meanings of their names.
The Fact File,
a fun and easy-to-follow explanation for the kids. This gives details
about the places where the action happened, including colorful maps.
This connects these old Bible stories with the modern world of today, so
that your kids understand that it's more than just a fanciful tale.
Music videos
with scenes from the story. These are great fun for the kids, with
songs they can learn and sing with. The music video is also a quick, fun
way to review all that happened in the story.
The storyboard,
showing the images in their rough form. This is edited together to make
a kind of music video with a voice over, that can be fun to watch and
used to review.
Finally,
there are trailers of all the upcoming episodes. Once your kids get a
taste of the Animated Kid's Bible, they will want them all!
This
series is a wonderful way to show your kids that those old Bible
stories aren't boring at all. They're bright, colorful and
action-packed... and more importantly they contain lessons for our lives
today.
