General Conference Quiet Activity #3

Temple Jar

I don't know about your toddler, but my little guy loves the temple. He gets so excited every time you mention it, sing about it, or show him a picture of one. So here is Activity #3

What you need:
* Canning jar of some type.
* popsicle sticks
* pictures of the apostles, and President Monson
* favorite temple pictures
* packing tape


How you do it:

1- Cut out pictures of Apostles and President Monson (I found these in the last conference edition, easy and cheap)
2- Mount them on cardstock
3- Tape them to popsicle sticks with clear packing tape
4- Mount pictures of the temple to your jar.

How to play the game:

Hand your toddler the popsicle stick that has the picture of the speaker. Have them listen to the speaker to hear the word temple. If the speaker says the word
"TEMPLE"
their picture can go in the jar.

I thought that I would at least try this with the First Presidency. Then I know that Little R is listening to some of Conference.

General Conference Quiet Activity #2

Get to know President Thomas S. Monson
a little bit better, by making this Prophet box. It was super easy, I hope that little R enjoys it.

What you need:

*Box of some sort, I used a 50cent pencil box. But you could just use a shoe box.
*Facts about President Monson. (go to lds.org from here, then click on his picture)
*Clipart to go along with the facts

How you do it:

1- Print off the fact sheet about President Monson
2- Find clipart to go along with the facts you want your kids to learn
3- Cut and past clipart
4- Make a brief sentence or two about the fact for the back of your card.
5- Laminate for durability

****If I was thinking, I would have made two sets of cards for a MEMORY game.

Little R loves to put things in boxes, and look at pictures, so I thought that he might like this activity. PS I also got some of my facts from the church DVD, "On The Lord's Errand." This is a new DVD about Prophet Monson.

I tried to upload my images and other document, but it failed today. Maybe tomorrow.
