Boy Baptism Gift Tag - Latter Days Saint Baptism Gift Idea and Tag

So two of my nephews got baptized today and I made them this card to go with a little baptism gift. Thought others could use something like this too, and this one is hopefully super versatile! This one is available free HERE: BoyBapstimGiftTag.pdf

Here are some ideas....

I designed it so once cut and folded, it creates two cards with a place on the inside to write a more personal message :) 

Happy Baptism!!

Primary Activity Taste Off - Healthy eating lesson or just a fun taste testing activity! Primary Activity Days Idea

So my friend did a taste off activity and said it was a huge hit (I mean, aren't activities centered around food usually?!) So I wanted to make this "placemat" to make this activity just a little more cohesive. 

I made four different "placemats" depending on how much food you want to use and whether you want the placemat to include the Gospel Standard or not. 

1. Room for 8 pairs of food & Gospel Standard is included (great for a healthy eating lesson)

2. Room for 4 pairs of food & Gospel Standard

3. Room for 8 pairs of food & no Gospel Standard (great for just a fun activity)

4. Room for 4 pairs of food & no Gospel Standard

Room for 8 pairs of food AND Gospel Standard

Room for 8 pairs of food and NO Gospel Standard

I was sharing this activity with my sister and she said having the Gospel Standard on there and then serving Oreos and Root Beer and chips might have some mixed messaging, haha... so that's why depending on how you want to use this placement it may be better to leave if off. 

Here are some examples: 

fun to really evaluate what kinds of healthy foods you like :)

fun to see if they can even taste a difference between the two

To make a "placemat" from the PDF, just trim the margin and tape who pieces of paper together.

Articles of Faith Scavenger Hunt - Primary Activity Days for Latter Day Saints Themed Scavenger Hunt

 

My kids LOVE anything called "scavenger hunt"! So I had to make this Articles of Faith Scavenger Hunt with Spring/St Patricks Day AND Easter themes. 

Basically before the activity, the leader prepares and hides 13 envelopes with puzzle pieces inside. When a player find an envelope, they have to say the missing word before they can open the envelope and take their puzzle piece (don't worry, they have Holy Ghost Clues to help them). Once they all found all 13 puzzle pieces, they can put their puzzle together to look like this: 

I made three different themes....

Christlike Scavenger Hunt - Christlike Character Trait Scavenger Hunt - Activity Days for Latter Day Saints

I feel like there's been a big push to learn more about Christ in the last couple years. I know it's something I've been trying to work on and can always improve. I made this activity for kids to get acquainted with some character traits the scriptures say Christ has. 

Basically the kids go on a "scavenger hunt" or "easter egg hunt" if you're doing this around Easter (some images used in this have easter object but you can totally do this anytime) for Character Traits of Christ. They have to find all 10 and put character cards in their bags before meeting back together for a character lesson. 

 I know I learned a lot making this activity and I hope anyone who tries this can get a lot out of it too!

Baptismal Covenants "Jeoparty" - Teach primary kids about My Baptismal Covenants - Primary Activity Days Latter Day Saint Activity Days, FHE, Youth Activity

This baptismal covenants "Jeoparty" should be a fun way to review the covenants we make at baptism!

There are 5 categories with 6 questions in each category: 

1. Fill in the blank

2. Translation?

3. Who Covenants?

4. Baptism Trivia

5. Finish this

I made this into a printable/pdf version that can be hung on a chalkboard or wall AND a PowerPoint version that's very user friendly... all you have to do is click the number and the question shows up, then click again to clear the question :)

Articles of Faith Survivor Style Activity - Super fun activity with challenges and Articles of Faith puzzles! Primary Activity Days for Latter Day Saints

 

This might be my most fun activity yet!! After I did the Gospel Standards Survivor  activity with my daughter and her friends, she'd been begging me to do something like that again so I tweaked it here and there and turned it into this Articles of Faith Survivor. The challenges are a bit different but same concept... Everyone is part of the "Nephite Tribe" and everyone competes in the challenges. The tribe member to win the challenge, gets to put together an Article of Faith puzzle.

So before the activity starts, it took me about 30 mins to prep for the activity. I would plan maybe 45 mins just in case. This is all you need, plus a ball, plate and writing utensil for each person. 

1. Print the activity with enough written challenges/ Aof F handout for each tribe member 

2. Get 1 paper plate, 1 ball (I used a ping pong type ball), and 1 pen per tribe member

3. Cut Article of Faith puzzles and wrap the puzzle holder around the pieces (this was the longest part)

4. Cut name tags and thread into necklace (optional)

5. Wrap challenges into scrolls (this is totally optional.. just made it a little more fun)

Then, once everyone gets to the activity, start the activity by providing everyone with the Articles of Faith Handout, a pen/(cil), ball and paper plate. Then read them the welcome letter and then read the first challenge. 

Then start with challenge 1!

This is how the activity went for us.... the kids had a total blast and were super disappointed when it was over (how I like it). I just did it in my home but it would work really well in a church!

Everyone starts with the Articles of Faith Handout, a pen, ball and paper plate. 

Let the tribe member that won immunity read the next challenge to the group

We would chant the person's name as they solved the puzzle (just to pump things up) and then we would all read the Article of Faith out loud together. Everyone would fill out their Articles of Faith handout with the missing word 

I gave them the written challenges face-down and had them turn it over and start all at the same time.

My four year old joined in on some of the challenges and ended up winning one and was SUPER pumped :)
