Opening Prayer:
Lesson:
For the Object Lesson you will need:
- A small cup
- Dish full of water
- Spoon
- Saucer to place under the empty cup
I asked the children then what we have to do to be worthy to recieve blessings from our Father in Heaven.
Next we read, 1 Thessalonians 5:18
How can we thank Heavenly Father for all the blessings he has given us?
We discussed through our prayers meaning we can pray and tell heavenly Father thank you. We talked again very quickly about the 4 steps of prayer. We also talked about how we can thank him through our actions, i.e. being nice to our brother and sister :)
Bear your testimony and make sure to ask the children if there is anything else they want to discuss or anything they don't understand.
Activity: I have decided to do a decoration for our FHE activity. I have printed about 15 different color leaves I will then let the children write some of the blessings they are thankful for on the leaves I will then tie the leaves together and make a swag out of them to hang across our mantle (or you could hang it in their bedrooms for example) all week to remind us of all the things we are thankful for. Here is a picture I found on google of something similar to what I have in mind:
Dessert: Homemade Cinnabons
This is the best recipe ever if you are making homemade Cinnamon Rolls. It is tradition in my family to have Cinnamon Rolls and Hot Chocolate in the winter A LOT!! So starting tonight we will be having these. YUMMY
I really loved the lesson and the Cinnibons look yummy. I feel Family Home Evening is very important in today's world. Your family will be blessed for doing this faithfully. Blessings to you! LeAnn
