How do you know they are missionaries?(their name tags, what they are wearing)
What do missionaries do? (preach the gospel, serve others, be good examples)
Can we be missionaries? How? (be good examples of the church, invite friends to primary, help others, teach our friends)

Title of Liberty
Song: The Helping Song
Prayer: Kerri
Lesson: Kerri
I bought some white fabric and made a Title of Liberty. I attached it to a pole.
Show American Flag - what does this mean to you? (Freedom, America, Liberty, Opportunity, Peace)
Flags have been used for many years to symbolize different things for people. They unify groups of people and help to remind them of what is most important.
The Nephites were being threatened by the Lamanites. The Lamanites wanted to take their land and enslave them. If this happened, the Nephites would have lost their ability to worship freely. Captain Moroni created the Title of Liberty to remind his people about what was most important to them.
What were the most important things that Moroni valued? God, Religion, Freedom, Peace, Wives, and Children
The flag rallied his people together in a common goal and they were able to defeat the Lamanites and protect their livelihood.
Song: Popcorn Popping on the Apricot Tree
Prayer: Arthur
Activity: We went to a local ice cream shop for dessert

Understanding the Sacrament
I just found this great site for flannel board stories. I admit, I don't have a flannel board, but the pictures are cute and perfect for our young family.
Song: Before I Take the Sacrament (Children's Songbook #73)
Prayer: Arthur
Scripture: Tyler D&C 27:2
Lesson: Kerri
I used this lesson to teach about the Sacrament. We printed off the pictures and used them to tell the story of the Last Supper (Matthew 26:26-28). Then we related that to how we take the Sacrament each Sunday in church
Activity: Prepare Homemade ice cream
Song: The Helping Song
Prayer: Tyler
