Too often we doubt our own role in the Lord’s vineyard, telling ourselves our efforts to reach out to others won’t make a difference, or we’ll just be rejected. Many Nephites told Ammon that his brothers would have no success as missionaries to the Lamanites, but Ammon chose to have faith and go forth serving those he came across. Through his humble service to King Lamoni, the Lord softened the hearts of thousands.
This week’s lessons are a little different to help tell the story of Ammon to your children. From making maps of missionary adventures to using storytelling puppets, each day of the week has a different activity that will teach your kids about the joy of sharing the gospel.
Access inspiring lessons that teach straight from the scriptures and include everything you need to make Come, Follow Me a joy for your kids. Join our membership for only $10 a month, and you’ll gain access to a treasure trove of resources to strengthen your family’s spiritual foundation and growth.

The elementary bundle is a treasure trove for kids aged 4-11, featuring activities that instill key principles. Let’s explore three highlights:
Scripture Study
Before you start your reading today, have each child color and make the Ammon and King Lamoni Puppets. You can choose to do one set for your family and take turns or make a set for each individual. Read Alma 18, using the verses key at the bottom of the instruction page. Let your children hold up their stick puppet when either Ammon or King Lamoni are talking.
Hands-On Activity
Begin by showing your children several different maps. Explain that using a map when we read can help us better understand the story. Give each child a Map to Middoni. To help them follow along with the story, have them draw or write the things that happen along the way to Middoni. Let each child share what they drew at the end.
Scripture Study
Start by singing “I Am a Child of God.” Discuss how this is often the first truth of the gospel a child learns. Explain that in today’s chapter, Aaron teaches basic truths of the gospel to King Lamoni’s Father. Read Alma 22 together. When you are finished, color the “Aaron Teaches the King” coloring page.

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams. The toddler bundle Includes a full lesson plan with THREE activities that align with scripture written by an early childhood educator. These include a coloring page, another printable activity, and a movement activity that helps young children understand the scriptures. Here are a couple of highlights from this week’s lesson.
Go & Do Activity
Prepare by identifying a missionary you know and gather stories, pictures, and videos about his/her mission. Learn a few details about the culture where they serve, such as their food and clothing. Summarize Aaron’s experience preaching among the Amalekites from Alma 21:17, and explain how missionaries today are doing similar work. Using the playdough and “Missionary Playdough Mat activity” from the lesson, share stories of missionaries and let your child create playdough pieces that represent the places and cultures where these missionaries serve. Emphasize that you don’t need to be on a mission to share Jesus’ teachings and encourage them to think of someone they can serve or reach out to this week. End with a family prayer and act on the prompting to help someone.
The toddler bundle includes a lesson plan and three activities every week. Grab the toddler bundle in our subscription.

Moses grew from a helpless Hebrew infant to Egyptian royalty. Yet that wasn’t where God needed him. As a refugee, Moses was called to be the most significant prophet of the Old Testament. Through Moses, the Lord redeemed His people, established His covenant, and reminded the world that God will not forget those who follow Him.
Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers did not come after they had paid restitution or offered an apology. He forgave them the moment he realized they had changed from their jealous ways when they offered themselves in place of Benjamin for punishment. How overwhelming it must have been for Joseph to see such love amongst his brothers. His forgiveness came with no strings attached: “be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves” (Genesis 45:5).
In every moment of Joseph’s story, God was with him. From his brothers’ betrayal and serving Potiphar, to a friend of Pharaoh and the savior of his family, at no time was Joseph forgotten by God. Through the good and the bad, he trusted that God knew who he was and had faith that everything would be all right.
