I Will Go and Do

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids

Week 3 | January 6 - January 12

The scriptures to read and study this week are 1 Nephi 1-7. As you read and discuss these chapters you can use the timeline provided in your materials as a visual aid to help teach about Nephi getting the brass plates. 

As you read let your children color the characters from the Book of Mormon. This will help their hands stay busy so their minds can be engaged. Afterwards you can let the children retell the story of Nephi getting the plates using the scene of Laban’s house and the characters.

You can use a bonus idea to continue the main lesson or do a bonus idea each day. One of the bonus ideas is to talk about how the Book of Mormon testifies of Christ. Read Day 1 on your summary sheet for more information. Then have each family member write their testimony on the lined paper provided. If you have a child that is too young to write they can color the testimony coloring page. We love doing this at the beginning of each year to look back at the end of the year and see how our testimonies have grown.

The Day 4 idea talks about Lehi praying unto the Lord. Set a goal to say family and personal prayers each day this week. We provided a prayer chart for you to mark each day you pray.

Read your summary sheet for more bonus ideas and for a song list. Music is another great way for children to learn. If you don’t know a song look it up on the Sacred Music app and learn it as a family.

One of the bonus activities is the Scripture Marking Guide. It’s a little different and we include two different versions, one for younger kids and another one for older kids.

“Be Strong and of a Good Courage”

Most of the Israelites heading into the Promised Land had been born in the wilderness. Few remembered the treacherous journey across the bottom of the Red Sea, yet all would experience the miracle again as they crossed the Jordan River on dry ground. This time, however, it was not a crowd of fleeing former slaves who worshipped golden calves. It was the camp of Israel, a covenant-making people who had proven their faithfulness to the Lord.

“Beware Lest Thou Forget the Lord”

Moses taught that faith is best nurtured through the natural rhythms of family life rather than through formal lessons alone. He commanded parents: “Thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way” (Deuteronomy 6:7). Integrating gospel conversations into daily activities helps our children guard against “forgetting the Lord” during times of ease and prosperity.

“Rebel Not Ye against the Lord, Neither Fear”

Moses did not have an easy time being the Israelite’s prophet. From constant squabbles amongst the people to outright apostasy against the Lord, there was plenty of drama he had to deal with. As a prophet, Moses knew what the Israelites could be if they stayed faithful. He told Joshua it would be less of a struggle if everyone could see what the Lord had shown him: “would God that all the Lord’s people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!” (Numbers 11:29).
