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.
Toddler Come Follow Me Activity
Go for a short walk outside. Ask your child what they see and hear. Talk about each item they list in more detail. After returning from your walk read D&C 42:49-50. Teach that through faith we can see and hear what God wants us to. Then play the “Faith to See and Hear Matching Game.” Lay out the big pictures and put the smaller pictures in a bowl. Let each child pick a small picture and match it to the bigger picture. Repeat until all the matches have been found. Play again but this time you pick a small picture and make the corresponding sound. Let each child listen to the sound and find the big picture that makes that same sound.
Simplified Come Follow Me Activity
Discuss as a family acts of service you have done for others or that others have done for you. Then discuss specific acts of service that can be done around the home. Let each child make an “Acts of Service Coupon Book” and give it to you to use throughout the week.
Standard Come Follow Me Activities
The Standard Activities includes the Simplified activity and more!
CREATE IT ACTIVITY:
Read D&C 42:2 and discuss what obedience means as a family. Use the “Obedience Ice Cream Stack” to help with your discussion. For younger kids you can read the example scenario and question listed on each ice cream scoop. Older children they can come up with their own examples of how they can obey. Once you have discussed how you can obey with each situation add the ice cream scoop to the cone to make a stack. You can consider having ice cream as a treat after the lesson.
SURPRISE ACTIVITY:
As a family read D&C 43:1-7. Discuss how the Lord leads his church through his prophet. Sing the song Latter-day Prophets in the Children’s Songbook. Then play the “Pick the Prophet Mix Up Game.” To play lay out all of the cards face down. Let each person pick a card one at a time. Flip over a card. If it’s not the prophet leave the card face up and let the next person choose a card. Keep going until someone chooses the prophet. If you “Pick the Prophet” you win and get a treat. Turn the cards back over and play again.
DO IT ACTIVITY:
Create the “Service Countdown Chain.” Use it all week to do an act of service each day. Encourage each family member to write down or share about their experience serving during the week. Read D&C 42:38 and discuss that when you serve others you are serving God.
