I am always on the lookout for really cute--but simple--ideas for church quiet books. Thanks to a friend that shared a link with me, I have found probably the cutest ones I've ever seen! I LOVE LOVE LOVE them! Simply Fresh Designs has simply outdone themselves! So, if you're a Mormon like I am, I think you'll like them too! I realize that many of you are not, but it might give you some ideas to create some of your own, or something similar. I think Bible stories would be so fun to have too---if anyone knows where some are, let me know!!
In fact, I was so excited, that I downloaded them right then and there, got them uploaded and ordered, and picked them up--all within a couple of hours. I still need to get the laminated and bound (spiral)...tomorrow.
There are so many things that I love about them. First of all, they are the perfect 4x6 size--easy to pack around in a diaper bag, church bag, purse, or the car. They are also inexpensive--just basic 4x6 prints that you can have printed anywhere. For all 4 sets (86 photos) I paid a little less than $15 for 1 hour prints. (I told you I was impatient, lol.) You could save even more by doing just regular processing. You can get them spiral bound, or even punch a hole in the corner and slide them on a book ring. So easy!
And did I mention that THEY ARE DARLING??? The designs, the incredible detail and information? Perfect. I also really like that they are great for both younger and older ages. Little ones can look at and enjoy all the pictures, while there is enough text and interesting reading for the older ones to be interested as well.
Are your kids trying to memorize the Articles of Faith? Not only do they provide the 4x6 size, but also a smaller 3x4 size that can be put on a book ring and attached to scriptures, AND an 8x10 version that's perfect for displaying in your home.
I just had to share them with you! Click on each title for the link to that quiet book...

This is AWESOME Kierste! Thank you!!
These are great! Thank you so much! :)
I love these! I think I may order some and save them for my kids upcoming birthdays. The 4x6 Article of Faith cards would be perfect for my soon to be 8 year old-it will go well with the Faith in God book!
Thank you
Heather
Those are some wonderful ideas -- what a great expression of Faith. :)

I've been looking for something like this! I am printing all 4 of these today! You are awesome! Thanks so much! ~Erin
Thank you! I have made a sacrament book that is just about the sacrament, and an ABC book about gospel topics, but I LOVE THESE!!!!! They'll be sent to Costco shortly!
These are wonderful! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for sharing these. I have been looking for a good quiet book for a long time and these are fantastic!
What an absolutely fabulous site! Thanks so much for sharing these! I'm so excited to print them and put them in my sons' scripture bags.
These are fabulous! Thank you for sharing!!! :)
So cute. I searched for 3 hours last Saturday for something like this for our Primary. I wanted Scripture cards that we could pull one out a day to read to our kids. I ended up making simple ones myself but now I'm going to add these to the card stack. Thanks for sharing!
Super cute!
question - where do you get them spiral bound? I've wanted to do something like that, but have no idea where to go!
Ahhh, my color ink just ran out!!! I'll definitely have to get more because I LOVE these printables! Thanks for sharing.
Laree--You can go to Office Max, Staples, or your local print shop and they can do it for you.
I am so excited, I love the idea of having them printed somewhere to save all my colored ink ;) Thank you just doesn't seem to cover it, but THANK YOU!!!
Thanks for sharing. These are great!
Thanks for sharing! I'm just like you...saw this this morning, got them printed for me and a friend at Wal-Mart, came home and mounted them on cardstock and laminated them, and now I'm on my way to drop them off at the local Post Net to be bound this evening. This was such a quick and easy project that will hopefully stick with my kids for a while! Thanks again for posting this and if you ever come across anything like this again please post! You're awesome!!
Thanks for passing on the great information!
such cute ideas! THANKS!!
This is so wonderful!! I like many of the others have been searching for something for Church. I printed out all of these tonight at Costco and they will be perfect for my range of kids. THANK YOU!!!
Thanks so much--love them all. I hope I can get these done today or tomorrow before I head out to see my grandkids.
Thank you for sharing these links. I immediately uploaded them to walmart and getting ready to have them printed. love them!
so glad you love them!!! I'm working on a New Testament one or life of Christ for Easter!! :) Heather with simplyfreshdesigns.
Thanks so much! Printing them all today!
I love this. What a great idea. I know Brooklin might be to little for them now but to have them for when she is old enough. I could even use them in the primary class that I teach!
i made mine today. thanks for posting this!
I too made these, but instead of laminating and binding these, I just bought an inexpensive ($1) photo album at walmart and put the pictures in those. It worked perfectly and was SO quick and easy! I did the book of mormon and the we believe books back to back and the other i just did single page. I did have to trim off the excess pages but you can hardly tell. Such an easy inexpensive gift--especially if you use the $1 photo albums!
These are great!!! Thanks! I went to her site when she had first posted them, downloaded them, then uploaded them to snapfish and had them made in to the spiral bound books. All 5 of them for about $35...Can hardly wait for Easter to roll around so the boys get them in their baskets!!! :)
These are awesome, thank you so much for sharing them!
Love these! Just made my own! I featured you over on my blog here: :)

I am trying to get to these and I can't. Do you have any idea why? These are amazing btw. I'm Catholic so they aren't all exactly what I'm looking for, but they've given me inspiration for my own.
Do you still have these on your computer? We can't get them from Simply Fresh Designs anymore.:(
I fuck these! I anticipate I may tell both and spend them for my kids upcoming birthdays. The 4x6 Article of Belief game would be perfect for my shortly to be 8 gathering old-it instrument go cured with the Establishment in God assemblage!

I really love this We believe book. I printed mine all out and put it in an albumn. While sitting in church we had a lesson on Tithing. It suddenly hit me that in the "we believe " book there is not a page on tithing. Did I miss it? or is there really not one?
