Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day, Primary Kids and Parents!

Valentine's Day is one of my favorite holidays because it encourages us to show our love for others. Did you know that Primary songs can be festive for Valentine's Day? I created a Valentine's Day conversation heart challenge for you guys this year. (There is a black and white and a color version below. Be sure to not accidentally peek at the answer keys before trying your best on the challenge!)

If you are a READER: Print out the worksheet. Compete against your family members to see who can figure out the most "Primary Conversation Hearts" correctly, and then sing some of your favorite songs found on the challenge as a family. If you print the black and white version, you can have some bonus coloring time to make your challenge look extra festive. 

If you are NOT A READER: Parents, you'll need to help out a bit more for this challenge. Print out the worksheet (color or black and white) in advance and cut out the hearts. You can enlarge the worksheet if necessary to make the hearts easier to handle. Hide the hearts around your house, and encourage your kids to find as many as they can! As they find the hearts, consult the answer key to see which primary song you should sing next. 

Have a wonderful Valentine's Day!

Hint: One of the songs referenced on this worksheet is a song that our primary learned last year, "The Tree of Life," written by Shawna Edwards. While it relates more to last year's Come Follow Me topic than this years, I still love the message shared in this song! If your child has been in our ward for a year (I recognize that we have a really high turnover rate!), it might be fun to see how much of this song they remember. If it's a new song to you and your child, I encourage you and your family to sing along with this adorable video Shawna Edwards put together to teach the song.

Primary Songs and Rainbows! - Primary Video for March 2021

 Welcome back, Primary Friends! I am so excited to have you along for this week's singing time adventure. Make sure you bring your thinking caps because we will be doing a SCIENCE EXPERIMENT to introduce one of my favorite primary songs!  Additional Links: Ribbon Wand Instructions: http://soldaeira.blogspot.com/2013/04/varinha-arco-iris-rainbow-wand.html?_szp=414204  I based my ribbon wand on the instructions from "Sol da Eira." However, I chose to use a wooden dowel as the base of my ribbon wand. Of course, you could modify this even more and use an unsharpened pencil, a chopstick, a popsicle stick... whatever you have on hand! I wanted my wand to feel super magical, so I chose to cut my ribbons one yard long (instead of the 30 cm mentioned in the original tutorial, which just seemed too short to me!). Next, I used packaging tape and lined up my ribbons along that before rolling it onto the dowel. I covered the packaging tape with glittery gold washi tape to make my ribb...

Roll a Rainbow - Primary Singing Time for March 2021

Welcome Back, Primary Friends and Parents! You might have noticed a lack of video last week... we are starting to get back to in-person meetings! It was so fun to be able to meet some of you in person and to hear you sing. I still wanted to share our activity with those of you who were unable to attend in person yet, and I hope you have as much fun as we did with this game in primary on Sunday. We focused on three primary songs (two are review, if you have been following along with these videos): "When I am Baptized," "The Priesthood is Restored," and "The Church of Jesus Christ." I've linked some videos of these songs below, although you can also find these on the Gospel Library app.  In order to play this game, you will need:  Roll a Rainbow Worksheet: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xnQrg5Paix66ImSKnoOQ4Qb7UWPFTsTy/view?usp=sharing   Coloring Supplies (crayons, markers, colored pencils... whatever you enjoy coloring with) A die (a giant die makes t...
