Begin by reading 2 Nephi 13 and 14. Choose key verses that stand out to you to discuss as a family. These scriptures are about how Judah and Jerusalem will be punished for their disobedience. Complete the compare and contrast activity provided in the materials.
As you continue to read in 2 Nephi, discuss some of the signs of the last days or some of the warnings Isaiah gave. Write down these ideas on the scroll provided. Let children stand on a stool, wear the beard, hold the scroll, and read aloud like the prophet Isaiah to warn the wicked.
Next, teach about how the Millennium will be a time of peace and joy. You can use the animal scene in your materials to help children understand. Teach that animals that don’t get along now will one day be at peace with each other during the Millennium. Close the lesson by singing Peace in Christ. See your summary sheet for a link to the song.
One of the bonus lessons this week is to talk about the temple being the House of the Lord. Share your experience of being married in the temple. Help the children create the 3D Temple. Let them put figures in and out of the temple pretending to go to the temple someday.
Use the Spin It Game to talk about different ways we can gain knowledge from the world and from God. Read Day 2 on your summary page for more details on this bonus idea.
(For those with a workbook there is a corrected Spin it Game file in the download section of your account)
Read 2 Nephi 25:23-26 and use the coloring page to memorize verse 26.
See your summary sheet for more details on the lesson and bonus activities as well as a QR code for the song Peace in Christ that goes along with the lesson.

Parenting is not easy. The experiences of Adam and Eve show that being a parent has never been without trials and heartache. Yet through raising their family, they learned true happiness comes as we try to follow Jesus Christ. Eve said without the pain that had happened in her life, she “never should have known good and evil, and the joy of our redemption, and the eternal life which God giveth” (Moses 5:11).
At the start of each new year, parents plan out activities and events for their family to do during the next 12 months. We hope to make happy memories, build our children’s character, and provide a refuge of emotional and spiritual support during hard times that will inevitably come. We want the best for our family and hope that at the end of the year, we will reflect on how good a year it was.
God knew the purpose of His creation before He began His work. As He told Moses, “This is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man (Moses 1:39). That purpose is the “why” for everything God does, including why He loves each of us.
