Everyday words
Whatever
Start with Genesis 2:19, where the Bible uses the word whatever in a real sentence: “Out of the ground Yahweh God formed every animal of the field, and every bird of the sky, and brought them…” The rest of this list stays on that same word so a family can hear it more than once.
