Free Come Follow Me Lesson Helps: Doctrine and Covenants 81-83

*originally posted in 2021

This week we are learning about service and prayer as we study Doctrine and Covenants 81-83. This week the activities are separated by topic in two different downloads. My friend Cornelia helped me out again this week by creating some activities and I finally finished mine :)  Just to save time I didn't combine them like I normally do.  I'm having trouble with my hand and arm and need to limit my time on the computer significantly to keep the pain manageable.  I hope to be feeling better soon and will do my best over the next few weeks to continue posting as I heal. Hope you have a great week and find something that will work for your family or primary class.

Free Come Follow Me Lesson Helps: Doctrine and Covenants 71-75


This week we are talking about bishops and effort! I think your kids will love the mystery person hunt and in the process will learn why the Lord calls bishops.  We are also going to learn a little more about effort using the quote from President Nelson. It's one of my favorite and something we try to remind our kids (and ourselves) often.  I hope you have a wonderful 4th of July weekend and stay safe.  

I think my life is finally slowing down for a few weeks so I'll be trying really hard to get these lesson helps out a lot earlier in the week.  Thanks for sticking with me :)

Free Come Follow Me Lesson Helps: Doctrine and Covenants 58-59

This week we are covering D&C 58-59. I decided to focus our activities on agency and being able to choose.  With this cute gumball theme we are going to talk about good and bad choices and that both have consequences.  There are a few different game options (including one for the little ones) and journaling pages. If you have an older class or family members you may want to write your own scenarios or dig a little deeper into the ones I created-that's what I do for my family.  I hope your family or primary class has so much fun learning to "chews" the right this week!

Free Holiday Calendar with 30 Fun & Unique June Holidays


June is officially here, and for many of us, that means the start of summer break! Well, for us it's just around the corner, but we are already in full summer mode!

For me, summer is all about family time and making memories. But let’s be honest, it’s not always sunshine and rainbows. Somehow, the “I’m bored” starts up quickly, and screens appear more than I’d prefer.

That’s where our monthly holiday calendar comes in. It’s my way of adding a little extra creativity to our days. It gives us an idea to break the routine and spark creativity, sometimes it's a quick 5-minute activity, and other times a full-blown theme day (my favorite!).

For example, Donut Day could be as simple as picking up a box of your family’s favorite donuts and calling it a win. If we’re feeling more adventurous, we might make our own donuts at home, surprise a friend with a delivery, create donut-themed crafts, or even set up a pretend donut shop complete with pretend playdough treats.

There’s no wrong way to celebrate, just lots of opportunities to connect and make sweet memories together.

If you're like me and love having fun ways to break up the day, you can download our Free June Holiday Calendar below. It’s filled with family-friendly ideas, from World Ocean Day to Father’s Day and more to help you turn everyday moments into something memorable.

I’d love to hear from you, what June holidays are you most excited about? Do you have any special traditions or creative ideas for celebrating them? I’m always looking for new inspiration for our family adventures.

31 Unique and Fun Holidays Celebrate in May 2025

 


It’s May!
If you have kids in school, you know this is one of the busiest months of the year—it definitely is for our family. Between field trips, sports, recitals, and everything in between, the days can fly by in a blur.

That’s exactly why I created this monthly holiday calendar—not to add more to your already full plate, but to help you pause and create small, meaningful moments with your family. Use it as a fun conversation starter, a jumping-off point for activities and celebrations, or maybe even inspiration to start new family traditions.

One of our favorites? Star Wars Day! We love to go all out with a themed dinner, games, and of course, a movie night. (You can find some fun Star Wars Day printables here).

As a mom, I personally love National Clean Your Room Day—no surprise there—but my kids are definitely more excited about World Baking Day.

What holidays are you looking forward to in May?

Free Come Follow Me Lesson Helps: Doctrine and Covenants 20-22

*Originally posted in 2021. You can find additional ideas for topics covered in these chapters by using the search bar. There are lots of ideas for baptism. 
I'm so excited to share this week's lesson helps with you! This week we are talking about the Church of Jesus Christ being restored and the blessings that it brings into our lives. Another topic suggestion in the primary manual is "we are blessed when we follow the prophet."  Our prophet recently shared a message with the children during the Friend to Friend broadcast. We are going to watch his message and use these fun printables to make a little display to help us remember what he taught.  It is about the small and simple things we can do to make a big difference.  This just happened to be a topic in our adult session of stake conference this week. One of the members of the presidency share a sweet video about a boy who found a way to change the world with his simple act. It is the sweetest thing and I can't even think about it with out crying :) I knew I wanted to share it with my children and was so excited when I realized how perfectly it fit in with this week's lesson. It's worth a watch and that link is included in the download so you'll have it.  You can grab all of these free printables in the downloads below.  I hope you find something that will work for your family or primary class.  Have a wonderful week and please let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks for stopping by!
