Are there any parts of the bible you keep from them until they are older?
If so, which part/s, and how old do your children have to be before they can read the whole bible?

I started reading to my children from the scriptures the day they were born. My husband and I started reading them outloud together each evening before bed at the beginning of our marriage and included the children from day one.
When they speak well enough, they repeat a verse after us until they learn to read. Then they take their own turn in reading with us. As soon as they feel capable, they are more than welcome to read the scriptures from front to back. I don't hold anything back from them.

It's possible to invest a lot of time and money searching for methods to teach your children how to read and improve their studying skills. Is hard to teach a small kid how to learn, and also alluring them to see is difficult in itself. However it doesn't need to be that way because you got the aid of this system https://tr.im/08MsW , Children Learning Reading program.
With Children Learning Reading you will train your son or daughter how to split up looks and separate words into phonemes, an important issue whenever your child is just understanding how to spell.
The examining program from Children Learning Reading program makes it simple for kids to see rapidly and correctly, from simple phrases to phrases till they understand to learn stories.

There are many Bibles for kids, just not the whole thing. I think it's much better to start with those, most times they're even illustrated, because it might be really hard for a little kid to understand the whole bible. don't worry, he/she will have plenty of time to read the real one when he/she's older.

If the Bible is God's word then it should not matter what age they read the Bible, since he made it all and it is exactly how he wanted it to be. Oh, but ensure they realize that the story of Lot and his daughters raping him, while it is God's word and God did not find anything wrong with it, and God actually watched it happen (since God is everywhere), that regular sane people who are not sick do not think that incest is ok. There are numerous other stories in the Bible where God murders countless people, and please also inform your children that no matter that God believes it is right for him to murder and contradict himself, that humans attempt not to do that. Etc, etc, etc, the stories can go on and on.
Oh, and ensure you also attach to anything they read in the Bible the term.............Once upon a time.

I don't have kids.
But even if I did I wouldn't let them read the Bible, unless the absolutely want to.
Perhaps when they are 12/13 I will let them read the Torah.

My niece we started reading to before she was 1 year old. (She's now 3 1/2) Same with my nephew (he's just over 1 year).
We have a children's story Bible that we read to them to make it easier for them to understand.

when I was 10 or 12 or so I studied genesis, for the national bible contest.
heh, suffice it to say the events in the cave after the destruction of the city, were left out.
why the hell would you read a kid the bible anyway, I mean geeze, pick something interesting! I suggest Issac Asimov, Tolkien, things like that.
I can still vaguely remember my dad reading the hobbit, and things like that to me when I was little.

I started reading the bible to them when they were in my womb.
I let the holy Spirit guide me into what to read them and that is the way I taught them to read it.

I never read the Bible to my children. It's not appropriate for children.
