Everyday words
Abroad
Start with Genesis 10:18, where the Bible uses the word abroad in a real sentence: “the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.” The rest of this list stays on that same word so a family can hear it more than once.
