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.

Though the writings of Isaiah can be intimidating to study, we are encouraged to dive in and embrace this special part of the Old Testament. Isaiah is unique in that the entire book is written by him, as opposed to the historical texts we read earlier this year. Think about it: the word of the Lord straight from the mouth of an ancient prophet in your own home.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a guidebook on how to be a better parent? On how to have less contention in the home? A word or two on having more patience and kindness? The book of Proverbs is full of wisdom given to David, Solomon, and others who sought the guidance of Heaven. Many verses, when read with prayer and real intent, can answer our prayers when we need heavenly guidance in raising our children, such as this one: “A soft answer turneth away wrath” (Proverbs 15:1).
As we continue through Psalms, we are taught that humility is required to recognize God’s personal affection for each of His children. Heavenly Father knows each of us better than we know ourselves—our thoughts, strengths, and struggles—and offers His scriptures as a light to guide us home through life’s darkness and challenges.
