Keeping up

I haven't posted much lately, because my son is going away for a week and a half for training with Child Evangelism Fellowship for summer missions.  I've never had one of my children leave alone for so long, and it took a lot of time to get him ready to go.  And now he is off and the house seems awful quiet.

We are pretty much keeping up with our Bible Bee studies, though we are a little behind on the verses.  I hope to catch up this week.  We missed our family bonfire this week, but we'll combine it with the next one.

A fun way to review verses we already know is to have one person say the verse and then stop randomly.  The next person has to pick the verse up where the first person left off and then they can stop whenever they feel like it.  You can repeat the same verse or the person who finishes one verse can start the next one.  We have found this to be a great game in the car.

We have also been quoting a verse together when we sit down to eat a meal as a chance to get an extra review in.  The more times you can review a verse, the better chance you have of getting it into your long term memory so you will still have it five or ten years from now.
