Its that time of year again, I think I have had the girls do this every year but they like it and its fun.
This time we made sugar cookies and they icing them and we took 4 plates of treats around to people in the neighborhood.
little did I know that this would be my last activity.
I have enjoyed my time with the eleven year olds I will miss them and miss
planning activities but it was great while it lasted.
know I'm moving on to the 5 year olds (Payton's class.)
yippee I'm so excited.
Next Sunday we get to participate in the Ogden Temple dedication.
We go to church and watch via satellite You have to 8 and have a yellow card
given to you by a member of the bishopric or a temple recommend.
So my girls are age 11 and most of them have been lucky enough to attend a
couple of these for the Brigham City, Oquirrh Mtn, and Draper Temple. For the last
activity I thought I would talk to them about the Hosanna Shout and give them a
white handkerchief with their name on it. Then we drove to the Oquirrh Mtn
Temple and took pictures and had ice cream.
Payton and Whitney are the best helpers anyone could ask for.
Back in May the girls made Felt Flower Hair Clips.
All you need is felt, cut in circles, hot glue, clips, some put buttons on too.
Pretty easy and they like making these they get to take home.
The last couple of activities we have had were playing at the park!
Playing get to know you questions.
For January’s activity I taught the
girls how to hand sew
with a needle and Embroidery floss.
They sewed on cardstock, making
flowers and sewing on a button
for the top of the flower.
They had a good time and hopefully it
will come in handy one day!
This time for our activity we talked about being Grateful, and Giving Thanks.
They painted the blocks black and they could choose the paper and the
words, then pinned them on with Upholstery tacks.
This was the easiest little craft
ad they liked it.
I asked them what they are most grateful for and they all said
Friends, Family, Air,
Food, and Water.
Once a year we have an activity with the girls and their Dad’s.
The girls ages from 8-12.
This year all the leaders decided on a night full of Food, Candy and Carving Pumpkins.
It was a fun night.
I was in charge of Invitations, something the girls could give their Dad’s,
prizes, and a treat for each girl.
In October for one of the activities I had the girls over and we made Witch hats and
Witch brooms out of candy.
(Reese, Kisses and cookies) and also a little icing.
I printed these sign out and cut out the tags and pumpkins with my circuit.
They had fun taking them to random people around the neighborhood.
This is a super easy and fun activity and a good way to do something nice for
someone else.
This weekend is General Conference which happens 2 times a year for
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
I’ve been thinking how we can prepare our self? For this great privilege we have to
hear from the Apostles and Prophet.
Do you have questions weighing on your minds and hearts?
Are we open and willing to listen?
I asked the girls to try to Make the Most of General Conference!
What a great reminder to us all.
The girls need to prepare and give a FHE lesson to their families. I helped them
prepare one File Folder style. Thier was the cutest Lie Monster Story on
Sugardoodle. I printed them all and they cut them out and glued and got it all
ready. Take a look!
