Top start this week’s Come Follow Me lesson, read Alma chapter 31 as a family. You may also consider watching the Book of Mormon video about the Rameumptom. Use the Prayer Comparison Poster to write down the differences between how Alma prayed and how the Zoramites prayed.
Let the children use the Character Stick Puppets to retell the story in their own words.
Next, use the Rameumptom Tower Puzzle. Each piece has a song and a question. Hang the tower on the wall and let each child take a turn removing a piece. Sing the song, discuss the principles taught in the song, and answer the question.
There are many fun bonus lessons in this week’s Come Follow Me lesson. Choose the ones that will be a good fit for your family.
Sing “We Bow our Heads” or other primary songs about prayer. See the list on your summary page for some ideas. Then create the prayer mobile to help kids visualize what they have learned.
Learn the song Scripture Power and sing it as a family. We have provided a song chart to help!
Read Alma 30:56-60 and write down ways you can be protected from the devil. Let everyone take a turn to share.
Make a collage of images that testify there is a God. Use old newspapers or magazines around your house to cut out pictures.
Go on a walk and observe nature. Color the things you see on the coloring page as you walk.

Having the Spirit in our homes is essential to teaching kids the gospel of Jesus Christ. From the prophets Hosea and Joel, we learn that the Lord’s traits include being “gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and… great kindness” (Joel 2:13). If we show these traits as parents, we will create an environment where the Lord will “pour out his spirit” in our lives.
When Daniel stood up to the king and chose to protect his health, he showed incredible faith! This week, you can teach your children that same principle with the interactive Daniel Food Box craft and a batch of simple No-bake Energy Bites. As your family reads Daniel 1, you’ll get to talk about how fueling our bodies with healthy food is a wonderful way to express our devotion and love for Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.
Though the captive Israelites didn’t have a temple to worship in Babylon, they still held on to the blessings that came from keeping their covenants. We should teach our children that the temple is a special place, and its blessings can touch every part of our lives!
