General Conference Activity Packet for Kids

Posted by Abby at 12:33 PM

General Conference is coming up and I'm working on things for the girls to do while listening. I hope that the activities I've found for them will help them listen to the messages (as much as developmentally possible for each of their stages...).

In April I made something that I was really excited about using with the girls. It didn't go over the way I hoped it would because we had company watching with us but we'll try again in a couple of weeks.

I found pictures of all the General Authorities of the Church and Presidencies of Auxillaries (Sunday School, Relief Society, Young Men, Young Women, Primary) and the idea is for the kids to find the speaker's picture, glue it into their booklet and then draw or write what the speaker talks about.

I couldn't find a way to upload PDF's to my blog. If anyone knows of a way to do that, let me know! I did a fair amount of research and I guess it's just not possible yet.

But if you're interested in the packet, let me know and I'll email you the files I made. I also have some ideas on how to revise the packet to work for younger kids (I'm thinking 2-3 year olds).
