Check out this great list of beautiful Creation Science books for kids your children will want to read over and over!
When my boys were young, they would use a tape measure and sidewalk chalk to mark the length of every animal they could find measurements for. We loved nature walks, and they’d bring home every manner of God’s creation in their pockets, backpacks, and hands.
Our kids loved reading about every kind of science. There were beautiful resources that, sadly, denied the evidence of a Creator.
I wanted my kids to have resources available to them that gave glory to God for the things he has made. There are some wonderful books available that will introduce your kids to Creation Science, and help them learn more about the intricate design of the world around them!
Let’s take a look at some resources for lower and upper elementary. Don’t forget to check out my lists of Christian Homeschool Science Curriculum and Creation Science Books for Teens, as well.

Each Bible science book consists of 21 experiments covering an interesting–and academic–range of topics. There isn’t any fluff here. Your kids will be learning real science from a biblical worldview.
- The Legends and Lore series from Master books is such a great, interactive series that can be used as a read-aloud for younger kids (over a number of days), or as a reading assignment for middle school students (my boys still love these). Master Books’ Legends & Lore series takes a look at how there are global legends that correspond with the history related in the biblical text. That’s what we would expect, as people spread out after the Tower of Babel, carrying their history with them and changing the story over time as oral storytellers related “legends” around the campfire.
- We love The Flood of Noah: Legends and Lore of Survival!
- Giants: Legends and Lore of Goliaths
- Dragons: Legends and Lore of Dinosaurs
- God’s Wondrous Machine Series (Master Books) by Dr. Lainna Callentine ~ I love this beautiful anatomy series from Master Books. Your kids will love it too!
- The Complex Circulatory System
- The Breathtaking Respiratory System
- The Electrifying Nervous System
- Wonders of Creation Series (Master Books) ~ A great series that each focus on a specific scientific discipline from a Christian worldview. Titles include: The Cave Book, The Geology Book, The Fossil Book, The Archaeology Book, The Ocean Book, The Ecology Book, The Weather Book, The Mineral Book, and The New Astronomy Book (various authors).

Christian History Matters for Our Kids.
History matters. Now, more than ever, we see how important it is for our children to know and understand history and the Bible.
Here’s why:
- God is the sovereign ruler of all things. It’s important for our kids to see his hand in the history of nations and in the lives of both peasants and kings.
- Christian history is the story of our family history. Our kids get to see how people who love Jesus follow him.
- Understanding history can help our kids learn historic and biblical theology. They learn what the Bible says and what that means for us. They also see when the study of Scripture has taken important turns that have changed the Church.
- Reading Christian biographies and history can be a wonderful way for kids to think outside their own time and culture. God’s Church spans centuries and includes people from every nation.
- Christian biographies help kids consider their own faith, walk with Jesus, and the impact their witness may one day have on others–and on history.
The Who What Why Series is the perfect resource to teach your kids about history, while helping them apply biblical truths to their lives today.
