Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 14 | March 31-April 6 | Doctrine and Covenants 29

Between activities like school, work, and even church callings, we can easily get caught up in being so busy that we forget what it’s all for. No matter what we do for our family, what matters most is “why” we have our family: to live together forever in love and joy. Our Heavenly Father’s plan of salvation is how we can make that happen.

When the path toward that reward becomes daunting, or even seems impossible to continue, remember that it is through keeping His commandments that we can receive spiritual strength. He promises that “my commandments are spiritual” (D&C 29:35), and that we will be blessed with all that we need to feel His love and endure to the end.

THIS WEEK’S COME FOLLOW ME HIGHLIGHTS​

Elementary Bundle Lessons & Activities​

The lesson for this week is simplified but intentional to focus your thoughts and efforts on the Savior and His birth. We hope you take the time to use the activities provided to incorporate the light of Christ into your lives and into this special season

Gathering Your Chicks

Scripture Study

Heavenly Father loves all His children and will never leave or forget them! Hide plastic eggs around your house with the following keywords from the verse and then let your children gather them to keep them safe. Keywords: gather, hearken, voice, humble, mighty and prayer. After your children have gathered the eggs, place them under the hen as they read D&C 29:2 and discuss a chicken guarding her chicks.

Prepare for General Conference!

Go & Do Activity

Prepare for General Conference by discussing why the words of our latter-day prophets and apostles are important. Discuss and plan goals of how to prepare and be ready to hear the words and counsel from church leaders. Read D&C 29:10 and think back on past Conferences and if the counsel has come to pass.

Pop the Balloon

Surprise Activity

Learn about the atonement of Jesus Christ through this fun visual object lesson. During your Atonement Balloon Object Lesson, allow your children to take turns popping and attempting to pop the balloon while you discuss scriptures in D&C 29:36-50. End the lesson by reminding your children that through the atonement, we can always repent and be forgiven.

Toddler Bundle Lessons & Activities​

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams.

Gather Together

Hands-On Activity

Explain that we are all children of God and He wants all of us to live with Him again someday. We do that by following Jesus Christ. Read D&C 29:2. Invite your child to make chicken wings with their arms when they hear the word “gather.” Teach that to “gather” means to bring together. You could solidify this concept by having some toys strewn across the floor and invite your child to “gather” them. Show a picture of Jesus Christ. Teach that Jesus wants to gather us back to Heavenly Father. He wants all of us to live with Heavenly Father and our families forever. The way to do that is to follow Jesus and get baptized in His church. Following Jesus keeps us safe and will help us be happy. Explain that a mother chicken, or hen, gathers her chicks to help keep them safe. That’s what Jesus does with us! Teach that we need to help Jesus gather Heavenly Father’s children by sharing the gospel. Share your testimony about ways we can help gather Christ’s people, and about the safety and peace that comes from following Jesus. Then play the Gather the Chicks game together.

“I Will Order All Things for Your Good”

Have you ever had a powerful spiritual experience and felt the joy of God’s love, only to feel down again when normal life resumes? Or an hour where your children were seemingly perfect and kind to one another, but the rest of the day was awful? This might have been how the early saints felt by the end of the year following the dedication of the Kirtland Temple. Life itself didn’t get easier with the temple’s completion. Financial troubles and increased persecution made enduring to the end difficult for many saints. Yet those who persevered were blessed not only with strength but also with direction on how they could be a blessing to God’s children even amidst their own trials. The Lord’s comforting words to them are extended to us today as we also can help others feel loved during our own struggles: “Let thy heart be of good cheer before my face… for I, the Lord, have a great work for thee to do” (D&C 112:4,6).

“It Is Thy House, a Place of Thy Holiness”

March 27, 1836, was a special date both on earth and in heaven. For the first time since 70 AD, a temple of God was available for men and women to worship in. Many saints who were present for the dedication saw angels celebrating the return of temple blessings to the world. The Lord Jesus Christ shared His own joy of the temple’s completion in Doctrine and Covenants 110:6-7, when he said, “let the hearts of all my people rejoice, who have, with their might, built this house to my name. For behold, I have accepted this house…”.

“The Order of the Son of God”

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is organized according to the Lord’s instructions, as detailed in this week’s reading in the Doctrine and Covenants. One of the ways we can apply the Lord’s guidance in these sections to our families is to establish councils within our homes. We should, with our children, “sit in council with them, and to teach them their duty, edifying one another” (D&C 107:85).
