We have multiple Come Follow Me subscriptions and multiple activities in each subscription to help you find what works best for your family. Our goal is to help families come closer to Christ and we’ve worked really hard on providing more options to help achieve our goal.
Show your family a picture of the temple and teach about it being a holy place. Explain that a holy place is a place where we can feel of Heavenly Father’s love and learn more about Him. Read D&C 45:32. Teach that our homes and church buildings are also holy places. Play the “Stand in Holy Places Musical March Game.” Cut out the pictures of the temple, church, and home and place in a circle on the ground. Play some primary songs and let everyone march in a circle. When you stop the music everyone hurries to stand on a holy place. Talk about where each player is standing and how it is a holy place. Repeat the game, taking turns standing in Holy Places. You can add blank paper circles to allow more players.
Read together D&C 45:66. Let everyone complete the “Zion Puzzle.” Discuss the pictures on each piece. Each one represents qualities of Zion. You can learn more about Zion by looking up scriptures in the Topical Guide, read the Bible Dictionary, or look up conference talks.
The Standard Activities includes the Simplified activity and more!
Show the “Stand Ye In Holy Places Print” and read the scripture together. Discuss what it means to stand in holy places. Create the 3D temple. Let the children use lego people or pictures of themselves to put in and out of the temple as you talk about how we can stand in holy places.
Create the “Christ Will Come Again Tree Craft.” For the winter branches you can use cotton balls or white paint. For spring use pink tissue paper for the spring blossoms. Color the leaves on the summer branches green. Cut out fall colored leaves out of construction paper for the autumn leaves. Read D&C 45:37-38. Discuss that just like there are signs for the changing seasons and there were signs for Christ’s birth and death, today there are signs for when He will come again.
The extra premium materials will only be available in your account during the current month, April 1st-30th.

Though the writings of Isaiah can be intimidating to study, we are encouraged to dive in and embrace this special part of the Old Testament. Isaiah is unique in that the entire book is written by him, as opposed to the historical texts we read earlier this year. Think about it: the word of the Lord straight from the mouth of an ancient prophet in your own home.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a guidebook on how to be a better parent? On how to have less contention in the home? A word or two on having more patience and kindness? The book of Proverbs is full of wisdom given to David, Solomon, and others who sought the guidance of Heaven. Many verses, when read with prayer and real intent, can answer our prayers when we need heavenly guidance in raising our children, such as this one: “A soft answer turneth away wrath” (Proverbs 15:1).
As we continue through Psalms, we are taught that humility is required to recognize God’s personal affection for each of His children. Heavenly Father knows each of us better than we know ourselves—our thoughts, strengths, and struggles—and offers His scriptures as a light to guide us home through life’s darkness and challenges.
