We’ve provided you with a cute turkey to use as a Thanksgiving activity. Print one for each person or just have one for the family. Write something on each feather that you are grateful for. Don’t forget about your free thanksgiving place mats and engineer print in your downloads as well!
In your bundle this week we have provide three teaching posters. These were meant to be simple enough that a child could read the story on the back of the picture and teach the family.
Another thing we get to learn about this week are Christlike attributes. Use the lego print outs to talk about how we can develop the qualities one at a time. You can use mega legos to help teach this principle as well. Or you can cut them out and tape them on a poster.
“As one characteristic becomes strong, so do many more.” Use the tapestry activity while you read and study 2 Peter 1:1-11 to talk about our divine nature. You could teach this by weaving a tapestry together like crocheting or weaving a paper basket.
Don’t forget about the bonus ideas you can use all week long. We have a coloring page, scripture story, song chart, and suggest you take a walk outside to observe God’s beautiful creations.

Zion’s Camp was less of an army marching to liberate Missouri and more of a multi-week training in how to be a true saint. Those who showed they trusted in the Lord by following the Prophet Joseph received a massive boost to their faith, giving them strength for the road ahead: “That they themselves may be prepared, and that my people may be taught more perfectly, and have experience” (Doctrine and Covenants 105:10).
Doctrine and Covenants 97 was given to the saints as both a blessing of comfort and instruction. With persecution growing around them, the saints needed to know the will of the Lord to guide them. Jesus Christ spoke peace to the saints through the Prophet Joseph, encouraging them to wait “patiently on the Lord” and to do what He would do, even if it meant further persecution (D&C 97:2).
It’s easy to think that, as parents, we’re not doing enough to give our children a good life. The world is always persuading us to look at what others are doing and tells us our kids are missing out on extravagant trips, the latest entertainment systems, and privileged extracurricular activities. Yet these experiences will fall short of the positive impact that regular family prayer, daily scripture study, and keeping covenants can have on our children.
