With the start of a New Year, comes new goals, including the great habit of reading your scriptures daily. Follow along with the Come Follow Me New Testament readings with the help of these cute monthly reading charts. Get one for every month this year.
Save it for later, pin it now!
These monthly reading charts focus on days read, not the amount read. The goal is to instill a habit of daily scripture study. Use these reading charts to:
Encourage family scripture study. Hang it on your wall and color it every day you read.
Keep track of your personal reading habit.
Inspire your church class to read along throughout the week.
Preview or review what you’ve read
Keep track of another habit inspired by your monthly reading
Each monthly chart relates back to the weekly readings. As the month comes to end, use the charts to review some of the things you have studied. For example, in April, you see the empty tomb because of the Easter lesson. In May, you will see Zacchaeus in the tree.
Pick a goal before you start each chart so you can cheer each other on as you read throughout the month. And remember, we won’t be perfect in this life. Instead of looking for the whole chart to be finished, try 80-90%. Sometimes it’s easy to get discouraged when you skip a day but if you have a 90% fill-in goal, it’s easier to keep going when accidentally miss a day. Then decide on a reward like a trip to your favorite ice cream place or a new favorite book. It’s a great motivator to develop a great lifelong habit.

MAKE THE COLORING SPECIAL
Make coloring in each day even more fun when you break out the special coloring supplies used only for your chart. These are some of my favorites:
- Crayola Glitter Markers- I LOVE using these. It adds that extra shimmer and makes it so much fun. There are only six in a pack and they are more expensive. Crayola leak less than those other brands.
- Crayola Ultimate Crayon Collection- If you love crayons, this is a great pack to get. It comes in a very handy carrying case (sharpener included) and has all the colors you need including neon, glitter, and metallic. The glitter ones though don't really do much.
- Silly Scents from Crayola- Normally, I'd recommend Mr. Sketch but I absolutely love the root beer scent in this pack. Watch out for colored noses!
