The main lesson for this week is going to be so much fun! You get to talk about superheros and play a superhero board game! First, start the lesson discussing what your family has learned from the assigned reading, 1 Nephi 11-15. Consider reading the opening paragraph in the manual on page 14. Discuss how God has a great work for us to do and in order to help with His Great work we need to be armed with righteousness. How can we do this? What does that look like in our daily lives? You can use the wiggle songs listed on the summary sheet to break up the discussion.
Then play the Superhero Board Game. As you play it will reinforce things we can be doing to have the power of God with us. Let each child wear a superhero badge as you play (have these prepared before hand).

There are some really great bonus activities this week.
Complete the love coloring page and then sit in a circle as a family. Let each member of the family say one thing they love about all the other members of your family.
This week in your materials is a scripture marking guide. See your summary sheet for a fun activity and discussion to do with your family before the scripture marking guide.
Read 1 Nephi 11:16-33 and talk about how God loved us so much that He sent his Son. Use the song chart provided to sing or learn the song “He Sent His Son.”

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.
