We each take turns reading chapters, and we take turns on the verses of Psalms. My 8 yr old participates as well. There is nothing like daily reading in the King James Bible to build up a child's reading and vocabulary skills. Seriously.

I find this in the bold to be very true. As a family we don't really have a reading plan, but we read the Bible together as a family on Mondays. We pick a book we want to read, and 8 of us (5 adults, and 3 children 11 years old and under) would read a chapter each. The youngest child that is reading is 7 years old, but she was reading with us when she was in kindergarten at 5. And she reads extremely well, especially for her age.

Yes indeed! It's really good that the whole family gets together to read God's Word. You are building memories in those young-uns that will last a lifetime, and will always be with them. Hopefully, they will continue the tradition with their own children. Lord knows they're gonna need it!

Yes.
I always read it through in KJV first and will add others after I finish.
