Review:
As you can see, the drawing are not simple, but nor are they SO involved that you feel like it will take forever to do them, Rather the drawings are perfect for taking some time, say 15-20 minutes, and meditating on God's word, while coloring. personally I like that the pages are on sturdier paper and placed in between bible pages, so you don't have to worry about bleed through on your bible text. The easier to read NIV edition also makes it better for tweens and teens to read on their own, and understand better, always a plus! Because it has such a lovely binding, and presentation page, it makes for a GREAT gift!
A great way to pair up this bible, is with a great set of colored pencils, or pens, and out friends over at Ooly, have just the items you need!
The Ooly Jumbo Neon Brights Colored Pencils are perfect for those who like to color with a wide grip, the Jumbo Brights feature amazingly vibrant neon colors for a unique coloring experience. This set of 8 colored pencils will last quite a long time with thick barreled pencils that measure nearly 7 inches long. And with their neon colors so bright, they make a great highlighter too for marking important notes and textbook highlights. you can see how bright they are in the picture below- I used them around the word Smile.
But the true FUN comes with the Ooly Yummy Yummy Glitter Gel SCENTED Pens! these are NOT the scent markers you know that the kids use, these are ones YOU'LL want to keep! Whatever you write and whatever you draw, it'll come out with amazing gel ink color that sparkles with amazing glitter. You'll find a million uses for Yummy Gel Pens. They're great for taking the dullness out of classroom notes and making them super colorful and fun. You can make bright and colorful glittery gel pen art. Or take your greeting card signing to a whole new level.
Yummy Yummy Scented Glitter Gel Pens are SO bright and they just FLOW over the page, like silk! You can see HOW bright on the bottom section of the picture above! The scent comes when you open them, but isn't overpowering, and fades pretty quickly.. Each set comes with 12 fruity scents and colors. Lime, Banana, Orange, Cherry, Strawberry, Grape, Green Apple, Blackberry, Blueberry, Watermelon, Coconut & And you can feel great Pineapple. I'm keeping my set, the kid will have to wait for Christmas for hers! LOL
But your teen will ADORE getting either set of pens or pencils with this great bible! And you can feel GREAT about buying Ooly gifts with the bible, as Ooly donates a portion of EACH purchase to teachers and classroom ( https://www.ooly.com/givehappy) ! So you're gift will keep on giving!
