Adventures in Odyssey Club: Did You Know?

Grace-Filled Writer
One of the features of the B-TV Episodes was called Did You Know? The girls always thought this was particularly interesting and fun parts of the episode so I thought I’d do my own Did You Know? feature about the Adventure Club!
Did You Know…

 You will have access to over 800 episodes on demand? 

In addition to all of the Adventures in Odyssey dramas there are also featured podcasts, episodes of The Last Chance Detectives, Radio Theater episodes, and loads of behind-the scenes content!

Did You Know…

 You will receive a subscription to Clubhouse Magazine?  

My girls have loved this magazine! It’s family-friendly content has been around a while, but stays relevant to today’s generation. There are also tons of Adventures in Odyssey features for the avid fan!
Did You Know…

 You will have access to all of the Adventures in Odyssey Cartoons?

These were first released in the 90s by Focus on the Family. We have had a lot of fun watching them with the girls and access to these has been a great way to up our AIO knowledge, especially when we play Answer That!, a trivia board game we bought several years ago.  
Did You Know…

You can read Devotions for you and your family to enjoy every day?
Each devotion pairs with one of the episodes which can be easily accessed right with there! Along with a Scripture to read and discussion questions you will really spice up your family devotion time.  
Did You Know…

You will be the first to hear the newest episodes before they air on the radio? 
 Whether you are anxiously awaiting the newest monthly Adventure Club episode or can’t wait for the newest set in the series, Club members are the first to hear it all!

We are such big fans of this series. My girls listen to 1-3 episodes every night. We make sure to have plenty of episodes loaded onto our phones before we leave on a trip and my husband even rigged up a way to plug our phone into the speaker system of the car since it’s old school without bluetooth. We discuss our favorite episodes and use them as springboards for hard talks we sometimes need to have. AIO is such a big part of our lives and the Adventure Club is an amazing way to integrate it wherever we are!

Adventures in Odyssey Club Updates!

Grace-Filled Writer

Are you a part of the Adventures in Odyssey Club??? If not, you need to give it a try! My daughters love being a part of the club! They usually listen to 2-3 episodes a day between their free time and bedtime. I don’t mind one bit! They are being entertained and absorbing solid biblical teaching at the same time. They especially love the monthly stories which often deal with cultures around the world. 
For Christmas we gave our nieces and nephews subscriptions to the club! They were sooooo excited and couldn’t believe they would be able to have Adventures in Odyssey on their own tablets! 

We love this crew of kids soooo much. We have often given them individual CD sets, but this year we gave them EVERYTHING Odyssey has to offer! 
My girls also absolutely love to read the Adventures in Odyssey books! They were thrilled to hear about this brand new series coming soon! 
We can’t wait to get our hands on this! 
One last tidbit you might be interested in…

How fun is this??? Instead of just buying cards from the store your kids can print and give these awesome Adventures in Odyssey Valentines Day cards and share the love of God with their friends this Valentine’s Day! Another fun thing you can do is provide a membership for the kids in your life this Valentine’s Day. I like this much better than handing out chocolate.

How Adventures in Odyssey Helped us Survive a Week in the Hospital

Grace-Filled Writer
So we had a really difficult time in November with one of my girls. We were in the hospital for seven days and some of the reason is still a mystery. 
If you have ever spent time in the hospital you can agree that no matter how wonderful the care you receive, it’s not a place anyone would choose to be. That was definitely the case for us. We are beyond grateful to the Lord for His provision of incredible medical care, but surviving that week was not easy, especially for my sweet daughter. We had lots of visitors and wonderful friends who brought her coloring books, games, movies, and more. Although she appreciated all of these, there was one thing which helped bring her the distraction and comfort she needed more than anything:
Adventures in Odyssey

I grew up listening to Adventures in Odyssey and my girls have listened to this fabulous series since they were in the womb! Nearly every night they listen to at least one episode, sometimes more than one.

While we were in the hospital my girl would listen to these stories over and over again and they gave her comfort while she fell asleep, when she had her blood drawn multiple times a day, and when she needed to be distracted from all the poking and prodding.

They were my comfort as well. I can quote many episodes almost word for word now. Having these stories to distract my worried mind in the middle of the night was an incredible blessing.

Streaming access within the hospital made finding just the right episode fast and easy. If you know a child who is not feeling well this holiday, whether at home or in the hospital, consider a gift of the Adventures in Odyssey Club. I can tell you from experience it will bring healing of the soul for the family who listens.
