Get a worn out $20 bill and a brand new one. Ask them if these are equal in value and could buy the same thing. The answer is yes and that we are all equal worth to Heavenly Father. Here is a good quote from President Uchtdorf. “I am not suggesting that we accept sin or overlook evil, in our personal life or in the world. Nevertheless, in our zeal,…

I collect rocks! Whenever we go someplace unusual (like Ireland, Cancun, or Zions National Park) I always bring home a tiny rock that reminds me of that place and its particular beauty. Now some people just kick rocks out of thier way or some throw rocks to see how stong they are and some curse rocks because they might have stubbed thier toe on them. Some people even ignore rocks….

Keep items hidden until required. I’ve got some amazing inventions to show you. Look at this pen – can you see what’s special about it? It never runs out, because it hasn’t got any ink in it. Don’t you think that’s wonderful? Look at this next invention – a special clock. Can you see what’s different about it? It never needs adjusting because it has no hands. Are you impressed?….

I held up the first pot (plain pot with the beautiful plant inside of it) and then held up the second (much prettier pot) and asked if they could be represented by a flower pot, which pot would you choose to be??? (Of course, they pretty much chose the pretty pot) Before we came to earth,…

I used a picture of the Savior and took the crayons, mostly darker colors, and colored over the picture so as to distort it and make it just a mess. When finished nobody was able to see the picture. This has to be done prior to the begining of class. During the lesson I asked the girls who would like to have the picture on display in their rooms. I…

Spiritual Note: Lemon Identification (from a book called Low Cost, No cost Ideas for youth Ministry, its a Baptist church book, has some good ideas) While kids are feeling their lemons, make a secret list noting which numbered lemon each person is holding.
