I will be 100% honest and say that there are weeks when I wonder if anything that we teach Jasper in Family Home Evening on Monday nights will sink in.Then there are nights like tonight when I think -- This is what you should be doing.
I was in charge of the lesson tonight. We usually have our lessons out of the Nursery Manual: Behold Your Little Ones. Tonight our lesson was "Heavenly Father has a Plan for Me". Yes, we just had this lesson a few months ago, but I really like it.
At times Jasper was more into seeing how many crayons he could pick up at a time than anything else.
We made the corresponding mobile for our activity. Jasper really likes to watch the blades spin on the ceiling fans these days, so I figured that he might appreciate a mobile to add to his viewing pleasure.
If I were to make these again, I would have photocopied the backside too, as the pictures are blank on the back, which doesn't make for great mobile viewing. I think we'll stick some pictures on the back.
As a side note, I cut the photos from the Nursery Manual and made one coloring book-type page per lesson and put them in a book with page protectors. This book can take a beating better from Jasper. If you want a PDF file of this little masterpiece of mine, email me and I will send it to you.

I would love the PDF. I need to buy the book and use for our FHE. Brock gets the stuff in nursery but it would be great for FHE as well. Thanks for the reminder. Hope you are doing well.
Thanks for the great ideas! I would love a pdf or whatever if you have one. :) I realize Emmy is still a little young, but she's changing/growing fast, so she'll be able to do those things in no time!
Wow, Jasper colors inside the lines already??? ;-)
