We Lived after the Manner of Happiness

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids

Week 7 | February 3 - February 9

A lot of the reading for this week are Lehi’s words and counsel to his family before he dies. Read the opening paragraphs in the Come Follow Me for Individuals and Families manual on page 22 to begin the lesson. In 2 Nephi 2 we learn that we are free to choose. Discuss what agency means and play the agency thumbs up and down game.

Review the lesson from last week about the Liahona. Consider doing one of the activities you may not have gotten to last week. Discuss how the Liahona directed Lehi’s family to the Promised Land. Complete the mazes.

Read the scripture print and complete the fill in the blank page. Discuss what these verses teach us.

The coloring page this week is one of the bonus ideas. Read the scriptures listed on the summary page as the children color the picture. Then discuss the question at the bottom together.

Another bonus activity includes spelling the word “joy” with your bodies and then handing out an almond joy candy bar with the handout included in your materials. See the summary sheet for the scriptures and discussion questions for this activity.

This week also includes a scripture marking guide. There are two versions. One is meant for younger children with assistance from a parent. The other one is meant for older children to complete individually. Both versions are meant to be a guide for marking and studying their scriptures.

This lesson is available to all subscribers.

“The Lord Called His People Zion”

In less than one generation, the world God created was filled with wickedness. One exception was Enoch, a prophet who taught his people how to live the gospel of Jesus Christ. As Enoch talked with God, he was amazed to see that the Divine Creator would cry at the fall of His children: “How is it thou canst weep?” (Moses 7:31). God responded, “They are the workmanship of mine own hands” (Moses 7:32). He was sad because each child of God is precious to Him. He grieves for each one of us when our choices take us away from Him.

“Teach These Things Freely unto Your Children”

From the very beginning, the gospel of Jesus Christ was taught by prophets to help families find peace in the world and obtain the promise of being together forever. Parents taught their children to “call upon the name of the Lord, and the Lord blessed them” (Moses 6:4). In today’s world, we shouldn’t hesitate to start teaching our children to do the same. From showing our toddlers how to pray to helping our teenagers plan a FHE lesson, we can bless their lives now and forever as they learn to “call upon the name of the Lord.”
