Ten simple commands. A lifetime of character.

Ten Commandments for Children takes each of God’s commands and explains it in language a child can actually hold onto, what it means, why God gave it, and how it shows up in an ordinary day at home, at school, and among friends.

This is not a book to read once and shelve. Every commandment is followed by a question and lined pages where children write their own answer, then a word-art page they can color and keep. Along the way there are pages to list ten ways they will honor God’s commands, ten people they would like to teach, and ten rules of their own for making peace. Closing sections gather the Exodus 20 verses behind each lesson and give children room to write their own story of what obedience has meant to them.

Written by Rafaela Josephine Coln, whose own faith was shaped at her mother’s side, the book treats the commandments not as restrictions but as a blueprint for living, spiritual architecture designed to lift a child up rather than fence a child in.

Made for family devotions, Sunday school, homeschool Bible time, Christian school, and Vacation Bible School, or as a gift a child will fill in, color, and keep. Ages 8-12.
