The Daily Audio Bible is a ministry with a website and free Mobile App aimed at helping Christians get into a steady flow of reading, or listening to others read the Bible to you. They offer a variety of options. One option is where the Bible is read to you daily in the order that the books of the Bible are printed. The other option is in a format which arranges the daily readings in the chronological order that the events happened. There are two main readers, a mother and her adult daughter, who share their thoughts and a prayer along with the reading. The App helps you to check off what you have read and gauge your progress.  

They also offer a teen version, a digital community, a prayer wall and merchandise.

You can find their app in the App Store and their website here.

There are  numerous other free resources available online. However, it is important to read through them before utilizing them with your children as some resources out there highlight practices unique to a certain denomination or insert false information that is not biblically accurate.
