The elementary bundle unfolds a week of discovery for kids aged 4-11. With three thrilling activities, your children will immerse themselves in Nephi’s vision, gaining a deeper understanding of Jesus Christ’s life.
Go & Do Activity
Before your lesson, collect a small rock and a large bowl of water. Do the “By Small Things comes Great Things” activity provided with this week’s lesson. Then begin a discussion by reading 1 Nephi 16:29 and a quote from President Dallin H. Oaks in the lesson.
Coloring Page
Read 1 Nephi 16:10 and talk about the Liahona with your family. Ask your children what kinds of things could be like the Liahona for them in their lives as they color the Liahona coloring page provided with the lesson.
Hands-On Activity
Begin by reading 1 Nephi 16:10-16, 23-31, and 18:11-22. Talk about how the Liahona was dependent on the righteousness of Lehi’s family. Teach your children about how a modern compass works and then have fun making your own to play with. Consider going on a walk or treasure hunt to help your children understand the importance of following the direction of a compass, and how Lehi’s family needed the Liahona to guide them in the wilderness.

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.
