Come, Follow Me Activities for Little Ones
For Matthew 4; Luke 4–5
Talk with your little ones about ways to choose the right, like sharing and using kind words. Read “I Can Follow Jesus by Choosing the Right” on page 44 together.
For John 2–4
Explain that Heavenly Father wants us to obey and help our parents. Ask your little ones to help you with a chore, like putting away toys or washing dishes. Thank them for helping you!
For Matthew 5; Luke 6
Tell your little ones that we are happy when we choose the right like Jesus did. Hang up a paper with a smiley face drawn on it. Add a smiley face each time your little ones make a “happy” choice.
For Matthew 6–7
Explain to your little ones that when we pray, we give thanks for blessings and ask for things we need. Show them how to bow their heads, fold their arms, and close their eyes. Then help them say a prayer.
