He Is Risen

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids

Week 27 | June 24 - June 30
Don’t forget your gloves for this week’s lesson. You will need them, or at least one! I know what you are thinking, it’s summer! This is crazy! Well, maybe so but have you noticed our children love to learn in different unique ways? It really engages their little minds. That is why we make it possible in our lessons. We will get to the cool object lesson in a little bit. 
We know that Christ’s death was just the beginning. He rose again  and in Luke 24:5 we read He is found not “amoung the dead” but among the living. This should fill us each with hope and true purpose. This quote by Dallin H. Oaks says it so perfectly.
The scriptures to study for this lesson are Matthew 28, Mark 16, Luke 24, John 20-21. The mystery scripture story has got to be the favorite piece for my fourth grade son. He truly eats it up and enjoys marking in his own scriptures with his really cool pencil. When I break out the magnifying glass, it’s even better!
Each chapter teaches us about Christ’s resurrection and interaction with his apostles. Use the fun story walk to learn more about Christ with the apostles. 
The coloring page of Christ this week is perfectly done to bring the spirit into your home. Did you notice each page has a simple sentence or takeaway on it that is meant for children to memorize. This will help your little darlings keep the words of God in their mind and heart all week. 

 

Probably the best part of this week was the object lesson with a mitten or glove. In fact, I recommend giving each family member a glove to complete the lesson with you. Simply demonstrate and teach the lesson once then hand out a glove to everyone and invite them to try it! I know you are all wondering the details about this activity, see your summary sheet for the week where I give specifics. 

Another powerful tool to use with children and even adults is music. I know many of us are no musicians or professional singers but hear me out. When you teach through song it sticks! This is because song appeals to many different types of learners. Therefore, it is effective! Just ask yourself, how many primary lessons or sharing times do you remember from your years of primary as a child? One maybe two of them that were really special right? Now ask yourself, how many songs do you remember from primary as a child? I would bet that number is much higher. For me, it’s nearly the entire Children’s Song Book. 

Enter the song flip charts that we make special for your family, one per month! Here is the chart for June, well a sneak peak of it. Use it this week and notice how it sticks in your head and your kids are singing it around the house. Promise!

Before I go I wanted to share one more gem that is in the materials provided to those with an active membership. This pop up tomb action page! My two year old loved this and so did my older kids! Mom win! I love when that happens! The good news is that it also comes in color and black and white so print what you’d like best.

“I Am with the Faithful Always”

It’s easy to wish the Lord would show us everything we need to do to be happy and successful. However, that’s not His way. Instead, we are to act under His guidance and do the things we feel would bring to pass righteousness. As He tells the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 62, do that “as seemeth you good, it mattereth not unto me; only be faithful.”

“Anxiously Engaged in a Good Cause”

We all want to arrive at our own “promised land” or “Zion” sooner rather than later. However, we cannot forget that the process of getting there is just as important as the destination itself. As we follow Jesus Christ and keep His commandments, we are changed to become more like the Savior. The trials that accompany this period of growth are essential the eternal reward of being with our families forever, for “after much tribulation come the blessings (DC 58:4).”

“A Faithful, a Just, and a Wise Steward”

In a world that revolves around money, it can be stressful to know how we can support our families and make the most of the resources we obtain. We should feel grateful to know that in the Lord’s Church, Jesus Christ provides direction on how temporal resources can be used to further His work. He instructs the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 51 to collect money, food, and clothing to help provide for each other. We also read of the commandment to build a bishop’s storehouse.
