Start this Come Follow Me lesson by letting the kids build a tower with legos and blocks. Let them build it as tall as they can. Point out or help them realize that the stronger their foundation is the taller they can build the tower.
Read and study Helaman 5:12 as a family. Use the poster and the handouts to help your family learn or memorize the verse.
Next use the Tool Box with Tools Activity. Let each child pick a tool and read it aloud. Explain that the tool helps us build a strong foundation for a house just like the spiritual tools help us build a strong foundation for our testimony. Each child can make their own tool box if time permits.
Use the warning signs to discuss how we can maintain our sure foundation.
End the lesson with the Lego Snack as a reminder to build a sure foundation.
As a bonus activity read Helaman 5:30 and discuss the still small voice. Use the Holy Ghost Sorting Activity to help children understand things that help invite the spirit.
Another bonus idea is to discuss the pride cycle. Use the Pop The Pride Object Lesson and then complete the Pride Cycle Coloring page.

The First Vision wasn’t the only time Jesus Christ appeared to the Prophet Joseph. On Easter Sunday in 1836, the Savior stood in the Kirtland temple and declared, “For behold, I have accepted this house, and my name shall be here” (D&C 110:7). For the first time in millennia, a temple of God was again on the earth.
With our busy lives, it can be too easy to think we have to have the strength to do it all ourselves: getting kids up and ready for school, working long hours, doing laundry and dishes, making meals, planning activities, fulfilling callings, and so on. We will become burned out from life if we trust only ourselves to make everything happen.
Between activities like school, work, and even church callings, we can easily get caught up in being so busy that we forget what it’s all for. No matter what we do for our family, what matters most is “why” we have our family: to live together forever in love and joy. Our Heavenly Father’s plan of salvation is how we can make that happen.
