Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 7 | February 12-18 | 2 Nephi 3-5

This week begins a new era in the Book of Mormon as Nephi becomes the patriarch of his family. 2 Nephi is a powerful book of scripture that not only teaches how we should live as families but also why we should do our best to love and nurture each other. In this Come Follow Me lesson, we’ll use crafts, storytelling, and games to help your children understand connections between the Old Testament and modern-day prophets, temples, and other inspiring principles. 

Check out some highlights from this week’s Come Follow Me lesson below! Access these engaging lessons and everything you need to make Come Follow Me a success for your kids when you join our membership. For only $10 a month, we’ll help you become a master teacher at home or in your primary class.

THIS WEEK’S COME FOLLOW ME HIGHLIGHTS​

Elementary Bundle Lessons & Activities​

The elementary bundle is a treasure trove for kids aged 4-11, featuring activities that instill key principles. Let’s explore three highlights:

Temple Builders

Go & Do

As a family read and discuss 2 Nephi 5:15-16. Show your family a picture of a temple and discuss the importance of temples. Talk about why it was so important to Nephi to build a temple when they got to the promised land. Watch a video about temples and then have a temple-building contest out of material in your home like cardboard or toy building blocks.

Prophetic Visions: Joseph Smith Foretold

Coloring Page

Read 2 Nephi 3:14-15 about Joseph of Egypt prophesying of Joseph Smith many, many years before he was born. See if your children can guess who and what he is talking about. Then color the Prophesy of Joseph Smith coloring page together.

Sacred Engravings: Crafting Brass Plates

Hands-On Activity

After reading 2 Nephi 4:15-16 (You can read verses 15-35 for more of the story), follow the instructions to make your own “brass plates.” Then use the Book of Mormon Writings page from the lesson to engrave your own words or your favorite scripture onto your plates.

Toddler Bundle Lessons & Activities​

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams. The toddler bundle Includes a full lesson plan with THREE activities that align with scripture written by an early childhood educator. 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.

Temple Treasures: Scavenger Hunt Adventure

Interactive Exploration

Set up a scavenger hunt around your home using pictures of temples. Then gather your children and begin by singing “I Love to See the Temple” (Children’s Songbook, pg. 95). Read 2 Nephi 5:15-16 and teach that Nephi and his people built temples. Next, give each child a pair of binoculars and invite them to go on a hunt with you to find temples around the house. You can gather all the pictures and return to the living room. Sing a song of your choice about temples and this time let each family member hold a picture of a temple (from the hunt) as you sing.

The toddler bundle includes a lesson plan and three activities every week. Grab the toddler bundle in our subscription.

“Comfort Ye My People”

There are stages in life that feel like they go on forever, especially in parenthood: sleepless nights helping kids stay in their own beds, potty training for weeks unending, and running to and from after-school activities. While the privilege of being a parent is a blessing, it can be exhausting just trying to keep up every day. Isaiah taught that when we feel like we have nothing left in us, we should rely on the Lord to give us strength (Isiah 40:29). After all, are we not caring for His children?

“A Marvellous Work and a Wonder”

One could look at the work being done by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints today and describe it as “marvelous” and a “wonder” (Isaiah 29:14). With temples across the world, missionaries on nearly every continent, and millions of suffering people relieved by Church aid, it truly is impressive. Yet Isaiah marveled not at the Church itself, but at the healing power of Jesus Christ in the hearts of so many of God’s children. It’s not the temples themselves that are a wonder, but the eternal covenants made inside. It’s not the number of missionaries serving that is a marvelous work, but the individual souls who are being taught by each sister and elder. It’s not the exact dollar amount spent on humanitarian efforts that made Isaiah’s vision great, but the difference made in each life through kindness and giving in the Savior’s name.

“God is My Salvation”

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.
