Gospel Standards Starburst Scramble - Latter Day Saint Activity



This activity is similar to the Articles of Faith Hunt.  and is an awesome activity to do outside!

There are 13 "My Gospel Standards". Each one is split into three pieces (39 total). 
For this activity, have the players find all the pieces (hidden in a room or outside) and put them in the correct order. These pieces were sized to fit a starburst double pack. For extra fun, split your group into two... Pink Team VS. Red Red Team and have them race each other!!


Depending on how you want to do the activity, you would need:

39 Starbursts: If you are only doing 1 set (not a competition) and want to attach each "piece" to a starburst

OR

78 Starbursts: If you are having two teams compete and you are using BOTH Pink and Red

OR

Simply attach a Starburst to each handout. You can scatter the pieces without any Starbursts and have players find just the "pieces" of paper. 



If you can access my blog from your phone, you can save this invitation below as a picture. Then, edit it with any simple photo-editing tool to add text and fill in the information for Place, Time and Date. Then you can text out this invitation/reminder :). 



Once they have found all the pieces... it should look something like this. If you have extra time, you have can have the players scramble all the pieces and put them back in order again :)

Articles of Faith Hunt / Easter Activity




Each of the 13 Articles of Faith have been split up into 3 pieces (making a total of 39). 



With all the pieces prepared on either either Easter eggs or chocolate (pieces are sized to fit "treasures" but can really be put on anything you want), prepare them for an Easter egg hunt. Players must find all 3 pieces to each Article of Faith and then put the pieces in the correct order. Hide the pieces well if you want this to take a long time, or not so well for a faster activity. 


 If you would like two teams to race each other, assign each team a color (blue or pink) for a total of 78 pieces. They are only allowed to pick up pieces in their color. The first team to find all their pieces AND put the Articles of Faith in the correct order, WINS!

This activity took me about 20 minutes to cut, tape and spread eggs out :). Once the pages are cut, folded and glued, each "piece" will be double sided... with the number on one side and the Articles of faith piece on the other. 





If there is extra time, let the players fill out this handout :)
