CBN's kids' app with animated Bible-story videos, games, quizzes, and a kid-friendly Bible that makes Scripture come alive for children.
Our verdict
CBN's Superbook Kids Bible is one of the most content-rich free apps in the category. It pairs dozens of full-length episodes from the well-produced Superbook animated series with a genuine, readable Bible, more than twenty games, and personalization touches like a customizable avatar and a notes tool where kids can add verses, drawings, and stickers. For a free ministry app, the breadth is remarkable.
It works best for elementary-age children who have graduated from tap-and-watch story apps and want something they can actually spend time in. The games award XP and encourage repeat visits, the episodes hold up as real television-quality animation, and topical sections address things kids genuinely wrestle with, like anxiety and self-image, from a biblical angle. That combination of entertainment and substance is what sets it apart.
The trade-off for all that content is a heavier, busier app. There is more to load, more to navigate, and more visual noise than the cleaner Bible App for Kids, and very young children may need a parent to help them find their way around. But if you want a single free app that can grow with a child from early reading into the tween years, Superbook offers more per download than almost anything else here.
