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.

“The Lord Looketh on the Heart”

Have you ever been jealous of your neighbor? The Israelites sure were. They wanted a king to rule over them as other nations had, believing that life would be better and more secure. However, when Israel’s prophet prayed about having a king as a leader, the Lord responded that the people’s jealous desire was actually a rejection of Him as their true King: “they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them” (1 Samuel 8:7). Their need for what others’ possessed had decreased their faith in Him.

“My Heart Rejoiceth in the Lord”

The Lord loved His people, the children of Israel. We read in Ruth that His love wasn’t just for the nation as a whole, but for each person individually who kept their covenants. Ruth is an example of a convert to the faith who trusted in the Lord to keep her and her mother-in-law safe during a famine. Ruth’s loyalty to God helped her see His blessings in her life and trust that even in an uncertain world, good things would come.

“The Lord Raised Up a Deliverer”

What does the perfect parent look like? Is it someone who never yells? Who is always present with their children? Maybe it’s someone who cooks food that the kids never complain about. The Book of Judges teaches us that even with specific rules and expectations, the children of Israel had a habit of returning to sin and idolatry time and time again. Even after they sinned or complained yet again, the Lord always invited them to start new and return to Him.
