Step into the shoes of the prophet Jacob as he teaches the importance of genealogy and covenant keeping to his people, the Nephites. Jacob was a prophet who truly understood the role of families in God’s plan of happiness, and he did all he could to help the Nephites understand their individual role in bringing their families to Christ together.
This week’s lesson helps children learn their role in God’s plan for your family. With an emphasis on genealogy and growing our faith, these activities will inspire testimonies within your home.

The elementary bundle is a treasure trove for kids aged 4-11, featuring activities that instill key principles. Let’s explore three highlights:
Go & Do Activity
Before Nephi died, he passed the plates to his younger brother Jacob and gave him the responsibility to preserve the plates. Along with inviting others to come unto Christ, Jacob kept a genealogy of his people. Fill in your family tree printable from the lesson and tell stories of the people you draw on your tree.
Hands-On Activity
Begin by reading Jacob 4:6 together. Talk about what Jacob taught and how we can gain hope and unshakeable faith: searching the words of the prophets and gaining a testimony of them. Study the words of our current prophets and leaders with the “Power in the Prophet’s Words” mini book and a fun surprise reveal!
Coloring Activity
Read Jacob 2:17-19 and talk about how your family can help others. Choose a few ways to help others this week and make a plan to do that this week as you color the coloring page.

These include a coloring page, another printable activity, and a movement activity that helps young children understand the scriptures. Here are a couple of highlights from this week’s lesson.
Coloring Activity
Print, cut and staple the mini books before the lesson begins. Gather any family photos you have from around your house, family history books or albums and place them on the table. Teach your family about who is in the photos, books, etc. Next, read aloud Jacob 1:2-3. Afterwards, show your little ones that just like Jacob wrote down his life and family stories, we can, too! Then hand out the family history mini-book to each child and read it together. Let your children color as you put the book together. Reread it again during the week.

It’s easy to wish the Lord would show us everything we need to do to be happy and successful. However, that’s not His way. Instead, we are to act under His guidance and do the things we feel would bring to pass righteousness. As He tells the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 62, do that “as seemeth you good, it mattereth not unto me; only be faithful.”
We all want to arrive at our own “promised land” or “Zion” sooner rather than later. However, we cannot forget that the process of getting there is just as important as the destination itself. As we follow Jesus Christ and keep His commandments, we are changed to become more like the Savior. The trials that accompany this period of growth are essential the eternal reward of being with our families forever, for “after much tribulation come the blessings (DC 58:4).”
In a world that revolves around money, it can be stressful to know how we can support our families and make the most of the resources we obtain. We should feel grateful to know that in the Lord’s Church, Jesus Christ provides direction on how temporal resources can be used to further His work. He instructs the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 51 to collect money, food, and clothing to help provide for each other. We also read of the commandment to build a bishop’s storehouse.
