We have multiple Come Follow Me subscriptions and multiple activities in each subscription to help you find what works best for your family. Our goal is to help families come closer to Christ and we’ve worked really hard on providing more options to help achieve our goal.
As a family sing the song “Do As I’m Doing.” Let your child choose the action and everyone else follows them. Then show a picture of the prophet and explain that Heavenly Father has given us a prophet and asked us to follow him. When we follow the prophet we will be kept safe from dangers and come closer to Heavenly Father. Use the “Follow The Prophet Activity.” Place the arrows around your home and play follow the leader as the leader follows the arrows. Display the “Follow The Prophet Banner” in your home during the week.
Learn about Patriarchal Blessings by using the “Roadmap Activity.” Let your family find the pins 1-8. You can set them up in your home or around your neighborhood. Each pin has a riddle to solve before finding the next pin. At the end, collect all the pins and talk about what a patriarchal blessing is and why it is unique and special to each individual.
The Standard Activities includes the Simplified activity and more!
Read D&C 124:26-27. Create temples with your family. Some ideas include: Show a few pictures of temples and let your children sculpt a temple out of playdough, purchase a temple playdough set from tiny3dtemple and let them play with it, use a temple cookie cutter to make and decorate temple cookies, or cute a picture of a temple into puzzle pieces and let them put it together.
Read Doctrine and Covenants 124:15, 20. Review what integrity is. Complete the “My Integrity Book.”

By the time the Israelites had their third king, the nation split into two groups: the 10 tribes in the north, forming the Kingdom of Israel, and the remaining two tribes in the south, forming the Kingdom of Judah. The Lord called a mighty prophet, Elijah, to remind His people of their true King: Jehovah (Jesus Christ). Elijah testified to the people that their idol worship was taking them farther away from God.
Going from tabernacle to temple was a big deal for the Israelites. So big, in fact, that even those building the temple had to be worthy of the task. David’s sin in his lust for Bathsheba disqualified him to build the Lord’s house, resulting in his son Solomon completing it. For building the temple with a pure heart, the Lord promised Solomon that so long as he kept the commandments, “I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people” (1 Kings 6:13).
The story of David versus Goliath teaches many important principles, with one being that if we try our best and have real faith in God, He will help us make the most of our efforts. Though an army was present and he was offered the king’s armor, David brought his sling and his belief that the Lord would prevail through him. It was enough: “the Lord saveth not with sword and spear” (1 Samuel 17:47) but with trust and hope.
