FHE Friday: The Kit!

Our FHE consists of Family Home Minutes right now!  With a two year old, we keep it short and sweet and easy!  Our favorite resource is the Gospel Art Kit! If you don't have it, it's definitely something to save your pennies for.  We got it for a wedding present which is also a fantastic idea, if you need good wedding ideas. I digress.

The Gospel Art Kit has most of the church's pictures in it. It's even available online to download the pics if you don't want to buy the kit yourself. 

Here's what we do.  (it's not original, but it works for our little ones)  We pull a picture out, talk about it, and are using them to teach her the scripture stories.  She loves them.  With our older nephews, we play a guessing game where we pull out a random picture and they guess who it is.  The love it!!  It still hasn't gotten old and it's easy if we haven't prepared anything fancy ahead of time to just grab and go.

Awesome idea! I love it. So I now need to look into getting the Gospel Art kit and a copy of the new nursery manual!

We do the same thing! We use the scripture on the back also so that the scripture goes with the story. It works really well for us. Sometimes my husband travels and it is all I can do.

The church has so many resources...they make it so we don't have much of an excuse for not at least attempting to have FHE with our young ones! The back page of the FRIEND has 4 FHE ideas per month which incorporates stories from that issue. Check it out.

Fabulous! We received the Kit from my MIL a few months ago. Guess I should pull it out!
