Welcome to this activity book
STOP!
We really hope that you enjoy listening to Journey to the City of the King. In this activity book you will find all kinds of things to do to help you discover the meaning of the story. You can colour in the pictures, answer the questions, look up the people and places of the story in the ‘Lessons to Live’ section and find out lots and lots. There are passages from the Bible to read and investigate, and even a section called ‘Think’, where you have to ask yourself questions. Each section of the book fits in with a part of the story that you listen to. So make sure that you listen to the story before you do the activities. You could do one section a day or one a week. Have a great time. Peter and Anne Woodcock
