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.
Place a small treat inside a small paper bag. Then place that paper bag inside a slightly larger bag. Repeat this again 2 more times. Promise your child that you’re going to give them a treat. Let your child open the bags until they find the treat. Teach your child about Abraham and Sarah. Explain that God promised them they would have a child. They didn’t have a child for a really long time but they continued to keep their covenants. They finally had a son when they were almost 100 years old. Bear your testimony that God always keeps his promises and will bless us if we keep our covenants, even if it takes a long time. Then color the “Abraham and Sarah coloring page.”
Let your children “break the code.” Then discuss what you learn from Genesis 13:7-8
The Standard Activities includes the Simplified activity and more!
Read Genesis 15:1-6. Discuss how Sarah and Abraham’s posterity will be more than the stars. Gather supplies and have fun making popsicle stick stars. You will need popsicle sticks and glue. You can use markers, glitter, string, paint, sequins, and/or pompoms to decorate your star. Follow the instructions on the “Popsicle Stick Star Page.”
Ask your family what it means to be a peacemaker. Talk about what makes someone a peacemaker or a peace breaker as you complete the “Peacemaker, Peace Breaker” cut and paste activity page.
The extra premium materials will only be available in your account during the current month, February 1st-28th.

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.
