Downloaded from: http://ldsywideasandactivities.blogspot.com/2014/02/yw-value-buckets.html We’ve started using the “Real Heroes” posters that correspond with the YW Values (click on photo below to go to the site) on Sundays. The posters we had been using previously were a little old-fashioned and we wanted something new and interesting. The Real Heroes YW Poster Set has a woman from the scriptures or church history that corresponds with each YW Value (ie, Mary = Virtue,…

This post will describe the WALL-HANGING- I will have a separate post with the information about the Come Unto Christ themed Family Feud game (see the ‘youth theme’ label on…

Using the Mutual theme for the year is a good way to do that for a YW Presidency. I made these for all of the Presidency members in our ward, but you…

Downloaded from: http://ldsywideasandactivities.blogspot.com/2013/08/abide-by-guide-for-strength-of-youth.html This last week we had a lesson about dating for the young women. We focused a lot on how the For the Strength of Youth guidebook can guide us to date (and eventually marry) in the way the Lord wants us to. I saw this printable (left) on the Little Miss Suzy Q site and thought it was very catchy…Decide to Abide by the Guide! (the original…

One major even that happened in June was the birth of our sweet little girl.We were excited to welcome our newest addition to the family, baby #4, but it wasn’t a calm, quiet experience.On June 5thI woke up in the middle of the night experiencing back pain, which I thought…

I’m only one woman.

Downloaded from: http://ldsywideasandactivities.blogspot.com/2013/02/12-refreshment-ideas-for-mutual-or.html Twelve fun ideas for something different the next time you need to come up with refreshments for a Mutual activity or another youth event (like a fireside). Many of them are fruits or vegetables served in interesting ways. I’ll admit that a few of these ideas aren’t totally ‘healthy’ but at least they will give some variety! Click on the photo to link to the recipe or…

Downloaded from: http://ldsywideasandactivities.blogspot.com/2013/02/resurrection-visual-aid-for-yw-sunday.html It can be difficult to imagine some gospel concepts (like the Resurrection!) so I wanted to make a visual aid that the YW could relate to.

Downloaded from: http://ldsywideasandactivities.blogspot.com/2013/01/yw-theme-taboo-game.html Despite our best efforts, sometimes the class activities we have planned just don’t stretch out the entire 1 1/2 hours of Mutual, so I was trying to think of some things we could do that would be good time-fillers, but also fun and semi-educational (and not time-wasters)… The Mia Maids in our ward are really into games. I got the idea to make a YW theme Taboo…
