Article of Faith Cookies - Spiritual or Intellectual Primary Activity - Make cookies while learning and memorizing the Articles of Faith! Activity Days for Latter Day Saints

SO I know that making cookies is pretty exciting itself and most 7-11 year olds are all about making (and eating cookies) but this adds just enough of a twist that maybe it will get these kids working on their Articles of Faith too! Files for this activity are available HERE

You can either do this activity as more of a group, or have the children work on it individually... depending on what works best for your group. 

I used a "swig" cookie recipe from this website:

BONUS IDEA: If you have number cookie cutters, have the children make their cookie the number of their favorite article of faith. 

Examples of the "Riddles": 

Answer is butter

Answer is Salt 

Answer is Powdered Sugar 

Once all the riddles have been solved, you should have a complete recipe and be ready to make some cookies! While the cookies are baking, the children can work on this trivia page

To help encourage continued Articles of Faith memorization, I also made these Scripture Cards (sized to fit in standard scriptures)and  Articles of Faith Flashcards. The Scripture Card also has My Gospel Standards on the back (once it's folded)

If you don't have a laminator/key rings, I think stapling the Flashcards into a booklet works great too!
