    "Digging Up The Past" is a Bible study of Genesis chapter 3 through 11 for tweens (ages 9 to 12). It has an archeology theme with an story involving Max and Molly running throughout. The child reads a chapter in Genesis (which is provided in the back of the book with plenty of space for marking important things) and then goes through a series of questions and puzzles that lead them to think over the important things that happen in that chapter. The authors also tied in related New Testament verses.

    I thought the questions brought out good points, and I liked that the focus remained on discovering what the Bible says. The word scrambles, word finds, mazes, crosswords (with the word found by looking up a verse), and other puzzles were fun (even for me, an adult!). I think the skill level needed to solve the puzzles was just right for the age range, but I no longer have anyone that age to test this book on. The answers to the puzzles were in the back of the book.

    The authors' treat Genesis 3-11 as an accurate record of historical events that really happened. Overall, I'd recommend this children's Bible study. I think it's one that children will actually enjoy doing, and I appreciate that they didn't lessen how much was learned in the process of making it fun.

    Though some of this information was basic for my children, as it focuses on the Flood, I appreciate how this series takes the scriptures and reads through each verse not just a cluster of verses.

    I used this with kids 4th through 7th grade. I probably would not use with younger students, but could use it for up to 8th or 9th graders.

    We've used several books in this series and I highly recommend it!

    Child could probably use by self, but we worked on it together.

    This is such a good study and I recommend it for anyone who wants their kids to learn Genesis, Creationism, and How to Study their Bible all at once. Kay Arthur makes it very interesting and fun, as well as practical. A++

    We loved this series. Working through it as a Bible Curriculum with my 4 children, ages 8, 9, 12 and 14. It's a lot of writing for the 8 year old, but she understands the lesson. She had an awesome answer to one of the questions. Our family has done a lot on Genesis and I was thinking of jumping ahead to a New Testament study after this, but they cross referenced with New Testament scripture. It remained relevant, so I think we'll be patient and do them in order.
