Creative Activities for Family Home Evening

I told the girls we would be having Family Home Evening tonight. A bit later I saw Elise drawing a picture and she asked me for some scissors. She said she was making a game for our family home evening activity and it was going to be a puzzle that we all had to put it together. She is so cute and creative. I showed her how to hold the scissors and she actually learned how to cut for the first time. She cut her picture up in so many little pieces.  At family home evening last night we all tried to put it together, which we couldn’t really but she was so happy about her game. She even wanted to put it in a special puzzle box after we had finished. Good job Elise!

Anna also decided she was going to make up a game for us to play at family home evening. She wrote a whole bunch of made up words on a paper earlier in the day and during activity time 

we had to sound them out and try to say them. It was pretty fun.

They are at a really fun age right now and get so into and excited about the little things in life. They make life fun.
