New Song Kids is excited to make available Kids Daily Life Journals! These journals were created for ages1st-6th grade.  

Daily Life Journals will be available for purchase on December 7th with two cover designs to choose from created here by New Song Communications Dept.  The cost is $10.00. We will encourage kids at New Song Kids each Sunday in November to save their money for their Daily Life Journal. 

Here are the features: 
A team worked to re-word all the text to be kid-friendly, structured the Daily Reading Guide to read in a bigger font to be more user-friendly and added a praying by the scriptures section.  Journal pages are divided by fun graphics to make journaling less intimidating and fun. 

Parents can help kids determine by age, reading level and comprehension how much to read each day. Younger ages may only read a Proverb or a Psalm each day while older kids would be looking to read along with their parents from old testament, new testament, a psalm and a proverb.  Parents will be key in helping your child to use their Daily Life Journal with fruitfulness. 

New Song Kids Elementary ages will begin to interact with their DLJ’S each Sunday. So bring them with you!  If there is a financial assistance needed in the purchase of a Kids DLJ, please contact Donna Phillips at dphillips@new-song.com for more information.
