Introduction
activity:
Display the image of the heaven with God, or Heavenly Father, next to it. Bring out pictures of the children and
explain how we lived with God in heaven before we were babies. (Place
them in heaven with Heavenly Father to illustrate). He gave us
families and a plan for us to be happy.
THEN,
Jesus (display picture) came and made us an Earth (display picture)
to come live. (Bring the children from heaven and put with Jesus next to picture to Earth).
He
created the Earth and lived here to help us. He helps us to feel
better when we're sad, taught us the right things to do and died for
us. Then he went back up to heaven with his father, God. (Put Jesus next to God by heaven picture).
God
sent the Holy Ghost (hold up clear image of Holy Ghost) to help us on
Earth (put him on Earth with images of children). He helps us have
good ideas, stops us when when we might do wrong things, & helps
us feel warm and happy so that we can all go back to God & Jesus
in heaven! (Place all figures in heaven picture).
Song:
The First Article of Faith
Play
the song from the Children's Songbook off of lds.org. Put on repeat.
Hold hands, as a family, and turn around in a circle (like Ring
around the Rosies) until the music stops. When it does, choose
something fun to do (ex: Daddy picks up and twirls us, we all fall down, we act
like animals, spin around, etc). After doing it about 5 (or several) times, you
should be able to sing this song with your children and they should
be able to know most of the words from hearing it so many times!
Game:
The Godhead memory game
Play
as a normal memory game (all cards flipped over and each person gets
to pick 2 at a time until they find a match). When a person DOES find
a match, ask them who has that job; God, Jesus or the Holy Ghost.
