This activity goes along with day twelve of The Living Christ: An Easter Countdown. When Joseph was a missionary he used labeled cups to teach about the apostasy and restoration of the gospel. I have seen other versions but none as detailed as his. He still uses them to teach people! I know the youth […]

An Easter Countdown: The Risen Lord
This craft goes along with day ten of The Living Christ: An Easter Countdown. To show how the tomb was empty on Easter morning we have done this craft every year since my oldest was very little. It has been so long since I’ve been using this that I can’t remember where I got the […]
An Easter Countdown: Calvary’s Cross
This activity goes along with day nine of The Living Christ: An Easter Countdown. Can you believe we have never made hot cross buns before? We made this recipe (using raisins and dried cranberries). While the dough was rising we made stained glass windows – one of my children’s favorite art projects to do. Materials […]
An Easter Countdown: Betrayal and Trial of Jesus
This activity goes along with day eight of The Living Christ: An Easter Countdown. For our activity today we did another art study. I divided the children up into two groups. One group received The Flagellation of our Lord Jesus Christ by William-Adolphe Bouguereau (above), the other group received Behold the Man by Antonio Ciseri […]
An Easter Countdown: He Instituted the Sacrament
This activity goes along with day six of The Living Christ: An Easter Countdown. The older ones (6 & up) did this worksheet as a review after our discussion today. I printed off this booklet and had my four-year old tell me the story using his own words while looking at each picture as a […]
An Easter Countdown: Jesus Taught the Truths of Eternity
This activity goes along with day five of The Living Christ: An Easter Countdown. For our activity today we focused on the portion of the Living Christ that states “and the potential for the sons and daughters of God in the life to come.” I held up an apple seed and asked my littlest ones […]
An Easter Countdown: The Miracles of Jesus
This activity goes along with day four of The Living Christ: An Easter Countdown. Our children divided up into three teams – an older child paired with a younger one – and each team wrote down all the miracles performed by Jesus that they could remember. We then watched this video and I had them […]
An Easter Countdown: Jesus Christ was Baptized
For day three of our Living Christ Easter Countdown we talked about John the Baptist baptizing Jesus. We discussed being baptized by immersion, and what it feels like to be clean. It lead to us singing: “When I am Baptized” (Children Songbook pg 103) 1. I like to look for rainbows whenever there is rain […]
An Easter Countdown: He was the Creator of the Earth
Years ago (at least 8) I was teaching the creation to the Primary children and came up with these two activities. The first is a basic wheel that spins to show what was created on each day. Just cut out each wheel, have your child color the pictures as you discuss the order of the […]
An Easter Countdown: The Birth of Jesus Christ
Our activity for day one was very low-stress. Because we do so many crafts around Christmastime based on the Nativity etc, I decided to do an art study with the painting by Gerard Van Honthorst. We talked about the painting, where your eyes are naturally drawn to because of the use of light, and the […]
The Living Christ: An Easter Countdown
There is a new updated 30 Day Easter Countdown here! Easter is one of the most spiritual beautiful holidays! To celebrate the atonement and resurrection of Jesus Christ and what it means in our lives is truly to reflect on the whole purpose of why we are here and on HE who makes it possible […]
General Conference Wall for Teens
Two years ago I posted how we have a General Conference Wall to remind us of what we heard during General Conference. It has been a great, and very visible, way to review what we learned in the weeks following conference. Now that I have several teenagers I made another set of General Conference Wall […]
Women and the Spirit of Prophecy
I’ve slowly been reading through Women of Mormondom. A great book written back in 1877 containing vignettes about early women of the Restoration. I was drawn to a description given of these early sisters in the gospel. “Let us view them purely as prophetic women,who undertook to found their half of a new Christian empire.” […]
Sunday Society & Keepers at Home
In September 2010 Julie B. Beck, General President of the Relief Society, spoke to the women of the church about the importance of learning the history of Relief Society. Some of the many reasons she gave were: “Understanding the history of Relief Society strengthens the foundational identity and worth of faithful women.” “We study our […]
