_20 easy Bible questions for kids with answers and references: creation, Noah, Moses, David, Jonah, and Jesus. For class or family time, with a printable PDF._

## Quick answer

These are 20 Bible questions for kids, the simplest ones from our kids' list, each with a short answer and a Bible reference: who made the sun and stars, what Noah built, who found Moses in the river, which giant David defeated, which animals did not hurt Daniel, and where baby Jesus was laid.

Twenty questions fit into the first few minutes of a Sunday school class or a family devotion. Every answer takes only a few words, and the questions are about stories kids already know.

If the group answers everything, the list of 50 Bible questions for kids continues with thirty more, a little more challenging.
