Everyday words
Younger
Start with Genesis 19:31, where the Bible uses the word younger in a real sentence: “The firstborn said to the younger, “Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in to us…” The rest of this list stays on that same word so a family can hear it more than once.
