Before concluding His ministry with the Nephites, Jesus Christ taught of the covenant that will bring peace to all who follow Him. He taught the Nephites His commandments that, if they kept, would help them stay close to Him. It is in making and keeping these covenants that unite the House of Israel across the world. Jesus promises that if we keep our covenants, “My kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed” (3 Nephi 22:10).

This week, teach your children the chapters of Alma 43-52. You will find an activity book for your children (one for ages 3-6 and one for ages 7+). Print your activity book pages, then cut all of them in half, except the cover. You will fold the cover in half to help keep the pages together. Put all your pages in order inside the cover and then staple along the left-hand edge to keep it together. Make one book for each of your children (see lesson for details).
Scripture Study
Throughout time, God’s people have been commanded to pay tithes. Study 3 Nephi 24:7-12. Help your family to see why we’ve been asked to pay tithing. Use the “1/10 Counting Sheet” to show your child what we’ve been asked to give. Emphasize the blessings we receive for doing so. You might consider teaching your child how to use a tithing slip!
Go & Do Activity
From 3 Nephi 23:1, we learn that God wants us to search the scriptures. Dive into the scriptures with the “Book of Mormon Scavenger Hunt!” Use the checklist to search for words, items, references and illustrations to find throughout the book. Help your family see just how special and important the scriptures are.
Scripture Study
The Savior instructs us to search the scriptures and hearken unto His words in 3 Nephi 23:1, 5. Let the scriptures be a tool to help you be successful in understanding the Book of Mormon Mad Gab scripture phrases. If you can’t understand or “hearken” to the phrase being said, turn to the scriptures and search, search, search!

Hands-On Activity
Print, and laminate “My Edible Family Tree” mats for your child to create an edible family tree. Prepare for this activity by gathering some Oreos or round shortbread cookies, frosting and cookie toppings like sprinkles, pretzels, mini chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and more. Read 3 Nephi 25:5-6. Explain how to turn the hearts of the children to their father means to think and learn about our family. Place the mat in front of your child. Starting with themselves, have them place their Oreo or cookie in their photo frame. Cover with frosting and add toppings to make the cookie look like their face. Mini chocolate chips or pretzels work great for hair. Slice a chocolate chip in half for a nose, and use colored sprinkles for eyes, etc. Move down your family line as you teach your child about the generations of people in their family. Tell them a special fact about their family member as they make them out of a cookie. When you’re all finished filling your frames, enjoy the scrumptious snacks you created!

Parenting is not easy. The experiences of Adam and Eve show that being a parent has never been without trials and heartache. Yet through raising their family, they learned true happiness comes as we try to follow Jesus Christ. Eve said without the pain that had happened in her life, she “never should have known good and evil, and the joy of our redemption, and the eternal life which God giveth” (Moses 5:11).
At the start of each new year, parents plan out activities and events for their family to do during the next 12 months. We hope to make happy memories, build our children’s character, and provide a refuge of emotional and spiritual support during hard times that will inevitably come. We want the best for our family and hope that at the end of the year, we will reflect on how good a year it was.
God knew the purpose of His creation before He began His work. As He told Moses, “This is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man (Moses 1:39). That purpose is the “why” for everything God does, including why He loves each of us.
