Today we learned ALL about worms. We chose to do everything in one day, but these activities could easily be split up into multiple days. ➣ WORM FACTS The worm facts book (which includes handwriting) is from this $5  Worm Unit  from Curriculum Castle. It's on a website where you create a free login to purchase/download. If you'd rather read a book to learn fun facts about worms, we love this one:  Yucky Worms  by Vivian French. ➣ WORM HOTEL & INVESTIGATION Make a worm hotel with an empty peanut butter jar! Dig for worms, get an up close look with a magnifying glass, measure the worms to find the longest/shortest with an inchworm ruler (also from the  Worm Unit  linked above), and then place them in your worm hotel. Over the next few days, you'll be able to see worm tunnels and worms digging through the sand/dirt. Here's a video tutorial: Dig for Worms Prepare the "Worm Hotel" Observe the Worms & Tunnels ...

I know when you turn 5 or 6, you will lose your first baby tooth (show the complete version of a tooth). But, how do YOU know? Usually testimonies don’t come all at once. Instead, they come piece by piece. We connect all the pieces together, until we BELIEVE or KNOW that something is true. For instance, you may start to believe you will lose a baby tooth when mom tells you (place down one puzzle piece). Next, you read about it in a book (add another piece). Then, you see a friend at school lose a tooth (add another piece). After some time, you notice your tooth starts to become wiggly (add an...

A Video Tutorial of the Lesson:  Prayer & Song : Love One Another Introduction Activity : From  Latter Day Kids Relate a clenched fist to anger. How does this feel? When we're able to let go, we feel relief, peace and free. This is forgiveness. And the POWER of forgiveness. Click the pink link "Latter Day Kids" for the detailed version with questions. Scripture : Mosiah 26:30-31 Christ always forgives us, and he asks us to always forgive others.  Animated Video : from  Latter Day Kids This is such a great animated video. It's simple and clear to understand. I like to point out when the bee feels angry, who is it affecting or hurting? Only himself. We also acted this video out, and it was hilarious.

➤  PREPARATION ◽Print: Steps of Repentance PDF  (google drive link) or ( teachers pay teachers ) ◽Place the "Steps of Repentance Cards" on a the stairs as shown in the picture above. ➤  LESSON Open the lesson with a song ( He Sent His Son - Children's Songbook p.34 ) and a prayer. ➤  INTRODUCTION ACTIVITY -- idea from Latter Day Kids Invite children to gather around the picture of Alma the Younger. Hold the image upside-down while you proceed to tell the children a few details about the picture. Be very descriptive, so that the exercise lasts a coupe of minutes. "I want to tell you a story from the Book of Mormon about a man, named Alma the Younger. He was trying to destroy the church of God and lead people away from the Lord and the commandments. This is Alma and these are his friends, the Sons of Mosiah. As they were going about rebelling against God, an angel of the Lord appeared unto them." If the children notice that the picture if turne...

Last December, I was asked to speak at my sweet niece's baptism. As I was looking for ideas, I came across a Kit Kat Object Lesson from Strong Armor and knew it was exactly what I should talk about. It's basically a "KIT" that describes the three covenants we make at baptism (one starts with a -K- the other with an -A- and the other with a -T-. I will always look at Kit Kats differently now! FREE Download:  Kit Kat Baptismal Object Lesson "When we are baptized we make special promises with Heavenly Father. These promises are called covenants and are very special, because it is a double promise. This means that we promise Heavenly Father certain things and Heavenly promises us things in return.   This Kit Kat bar helps us remember the promises we make at baptism. The first word we see is “KIT”. Have you seen a tool kit before? Or a medical kit? A kit is a set of items you would need to do something. For instance, a tool kit has a lot of different t...
