Toddler Come Follow Me Activity

  1. When Jesus was on the earth He had 12 apostles. We have 12 apostles today too. Show your children the picture of the apostles. Teach your children that these men lead and guide our church. Then hold up the coloring page and teach them who the prophet and first presidency is. Color the coloring page as you listen to “Latter-day Prophets
  2. Read the story in Acts 5:1-11. Tell your children to put their hands on their head every time they hear the word “lie”. This story is not meant to teach us that if we lie we will die but it teaches us that it is important to be honest with ourselves, others, and the Lord. Have the children draw on the foldable how they can be honest at home, church, school, and play.
  3. Read Acts 1:8,22-26. Help your kids understand what it means to follow the prophet by playing follow the leader. Let each person have a turn being the leader. Then make the mama duck and duckling train. Let your kids pull it around all week to remember how important it is to follow God’s leaders.

Summary of this week’s Go & Do Family Activity

Before the lesson, make a batch of bad and good honesty cookies. Read about the story of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5:11. After your discussion about honesty, give your family one of the bad cookies and tell them how good they are. Then try to convince them to eat one of the good cookies. They may be hesitant because you told them how yummy the bad cookies were.

“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).
