Letter M Bible
For the letter M, you could read about Moses from a children’s Bible or listen to short Bible Stories for Preschoolers on my Spotify playlist. These stories are age-appropriate. Although everything in the Bible is important, preschoolers aren’t quite ready to hear everything an adult is – stories like Moses and the Plagues can wait until they are a little older.
