Ideas for Teaching Children

Doctrine and Covenants 30:1–2

I should focus more on the things of God than the things of the earth.

It may be fun for your children to try to do two tasks at once, such as reciting the words to a favorite song while writing down the names of all their family members. Why is it difficult to do two things at once? You could then read Doctrine and Covenants 30:1–2 together. What are some “things of the earth” that can distract us from remembering Jesus Christ and His gospel? How can we keep our focus on Him?

I have a fun object lesson that is great for this. You could easily do this on your classroom chalkboard.

Pull out the dollar bill and ask for a volunteer.
Tell the students they must look at the dollar bill the entire time.
Set the dollar bill on the table (the child is still looking at it).
Then, stick the picture of Jesus on the board where the child can’t see.
Put a piece of chalk (or marker) in the child's hand. Tell them not to take their eyes off the dollar bill, but to draw a line to the picture of Jesus and circle it.
Share the scripture D&C 30:2. Ask why it was hard to focus on the task; what are some things that distract us from focusing on Jesus Christ?

Doctrine and Covenants 33:2–3, 6–10

I can share the gospel of Jesus Christ.

To help your children understand Doctrine and Covenants 33:8–10, you could invite them to try to say a phrase with their mouths closed while you or your other children guess what they are saying. Read verses 8–10 and ask them to open their mouths each time the phrase “open your mouths” is repeated.

This idea from the manual is fantastic; you could follow it up with this activity. What are some things we can testify of when we open our mouths? Go by your inspiration and add your own pictures.

Why does Heavenly Father want us to open our mouths and share the gospel with others? What can we tell our family and friends about the Savior or His gospel? You could also sing a song about sharing the gospel, such as “We’ll Bring the World His Truth” (Children’s Songbook, 172–73).

Here is an additional interactive song :

Consider sharing experiences you’ve had related to the principles or promises in Doctrine and Covenants 30–34. What did you learn or feel about your Savior and His work as you served Him?

This was from 4 years ago, I still really like it, especially for the very young:

Place (or hide) paper dolls or pictures of people around the room. Invite the children to find the people and gather them at the front of the room. Read D&C 33:6, and explain what it means that the Lord will "gather (His) elect." Testify that we can help gather people to the Lord as we share the gospel.

There are 8 dolls total. You can download them HERE

Doctrine and Covenants 33:12–13

I can build my life on the gospel of Jesus Christ.

You could take your children outside to see the foundation of their home or Church building and ask them to describe it. Why does a building need a strong, solid foundation? Read with them Doctrine and Covenants 33:12–13, and share with each other your feelings about why the Lord wants us to build our lives on His gospel. Why is “rock” a good word to describe the gospel? How can we build our lives on the rock of the gospel? (see also Matthew 7:24–29).

This is from an old lesson, but it would be great for this lesson. Click on the image to be taken to the page.

Here is a picture of the Provo City Center temple. You can print this or look at it on a tablet.

From 4 years ago, still really great for families. Read the scripture and see if they can pick the cup it is talking about, while they build their tower.
