Perfecting the Saints — One Lesson at a Time
Every fall after the Primary program we hold a “Thank You” lunch for our Primary teachers! It’s so fun to get together outside of church, without a lot of pressing needs to address. We usually prepare a small take-home treat (lotion or soap or chocolate), but this year I decided that I wanted to give each […]
Happy March 1st!Spring is in the air here in sunny AZ and I could not be more excited about it.This month’s Visiting Teaching lesson is:Created in the Image of GodI know I say this about all the VT messages but I really do love this one. It’s suc…
We have gone out of our way to try to reward the children in our Primary without food, but even so, we just wind up replacing food with small trinkets and gifts. I’m not sure exactly how to keep kids motivated (or if it even works!) but I’m interested in finding truly unique ways to […]
It was kind of a rough weekend for some friends in our ward! A little girl from our Primary is in the hospital for an unexpected emergency surgery and one of the sisters I visit teach had two trips to the ER. Once blessings and meals were sorted, I started thinking about “Get Better” cards […]
Remember Scattergories? That board game in the 80’s where you raced to fill a page of the alphabet, A to Z, with words from a particular subject or category. I thought it was fun. This Valentine’s printable is the same idea: the letters A through Z are formatted into a little mini booklet. The “giver” […]
Valentine’s Day is coming up quickly! I put together a fun printable to give to Visiting Teaching sisters, family members, your Young Women or Primary kids. It’s not exactly romantic, so it applies to friends and family. These are two per page, designed to be cut in half. I thought they’d make cute cards, too. […]
I just have to share this amazing graphic by Bryan Beach from The New Era. It’s another really fantastic illustration of the concept of The Covenant Path. I cleaned it up a bit to make it easier to print and I thought I’d share this printable version with you. It would be another nice addition […]
If you’ve been following along, you know that this year our ward will be doing our Baptism Preview with a slightly different focus. Rather than an “Eight is Great” celebration for the Baptism Preview, I really feel moved to discuss The Covenant Path with the Primary children. A lot of the Baptism Preview will be […]
I love the tradition of spotlighting children at church! My husband always says its his favorite part of the day in Primary. There are lots of really great spotlight forms already out there, but it’s always nice to have a clean copy to download. The first one is based on the spotlight form my secretary […]
The first song we are learning this year in Primary is If I Listen with My Heart, found in the 2016 Sharing Time Outline. I promised I would share worksheets meant to help the kids learn the words–the one for this month’s song is below. It would probably work best for readers, so you might want to […]
Last fall I attended a brunch with our Stake Primary President. The pumpkin pancakes were delicious, but what she taught has really stuck with me: she stressed the importance of helping lead the Primary children in our stewardship to the Covenant Path. Ever since that brunch I have been thinking about the Primary children with that […]
I mentioned in the first post about the Feast Upon the Words business cards that we’ll be giving 1-inch buttons as a reward after the kids have read for 30 days. I had lots of requests for files to print so I thought I’d share Part 2 of this project To reemphasize the yearly scripture […]
