Temple Trip Activity
For our Primary Quarterly Activity we attended the Houston Texas Temple.

We then divided the children into two groups (each child received a colored sticker upon entrance). The entire group walked to…
FHE lesson on the First Vision

Each lesson must include a lesson plan, song, scripture, story (with visual aids colored and laminated), game idea or family…

Across the top of the volleyball net we continuously hooked the necklaces together. It took about 20 to go across one net. We purchased the bracelets from illuminationz.com. They were very reasonable. Since we only needed 20…
