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.
Joseph Smith’s parents taught their children how to help each other, pray, and read scriptures. Use the “Finger Puppets” and role play the family helping on the farm. Add farm animals to make it more interactive.
Teach about saying meaningful prayers. Challenge everyone to earn 20 pennies throughout the week. Each time they say a prayer they write on the back what prayer it was (ex. Monday Morning) and then place the penny in the piggy bank.
The Standard Activities includes the Simplified activity and more!
Begin by reading Joseph Smith History 1:14-26. Use the “First Vision Story Sticks” to review what you just learned about. Then use the “First Vision Name Tags” to act out the story. You could consider dressing up as each character to make acting out more fun.
Take time to ponderize the scripture that started it all, James 1:5 . Use “A
Passage to Ponderize” to help children memorize it. Let children read it, write it, and then say it. Review the scripture each night to help children memorize the verse.

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.
Abraham’s posterity was promised many blessings of eternal significance, but that didn’t mean everything would be perfect. His grandsons, Jacob and Esau, fought over who should inherit their father’s birthright. Relatives lied to and tricked each other. The prophet’s very own family was dysfunctional, yet that didn’t stop those who were righteous from striving to follow Jesus Christ.
