The Book of Mormon and the Bible testify of Jesus Christ.
To emphasize the relationship between the Bible and the Book of Mormon, as Moroni did, you could play a game like this one with your children: Ask them to say “Old Testament, New Testament” when you hold up a copy of the Bible and “Another Testament” when you hold up a copy of the Book of Mormon. You could also choose several events that both the Bible and the Book of Mormon testify of—such as Jesus’s birth, death, and Resurrection—and invite your children to find pictures of these events (for example, in the Gospel Art Book).
For Younger students you could teach them with this printable.
For older students you could teach the same idea, but do it on your large chalk board, using pictures from the library. After teaching about the where the Bible and Book of Mormon came from pull out a picture and see if the students know where they go. If your children are very smart they can separate the Old Testament and New Testament pictures into two different piles.
To help your children learn the eighth article of faith, you could write each word on separate pieces of paper. Invite your children to work together to put the words in the correct order and repeat it several times.
Also, I made this cute little Book of Mormon's and Bibles. These are in my store.
Also available with a Black and White cover.
In my store, available in Black and White.
Here is a video that shows you how to fold the little Book of Mormon.
My primary is giving out little flash lights with this gift tag. I thought it was genius, every age and gender likes flash lights.
I can keep the commandments even when I feel alone.
Moroni’s example could inspire your children to obey God’s commandments even when they feel alone. After you read Mormon 8:1–7 with them, they could share how they would have felt if they had been Moroni. In verses 1, 3, and 4, what was Moroni commanded to do, and how did he obey? How can we be more like Moroni?
Some of the primary children are graduating and going to youth Sunday school. They will have lessons like this all the time. Here is a sample of what you can do. The students can help you record.
Maybe you and your children could talk about situations where they must choose between right and wrong when no one is watching. How does having faith in Jesus Christ help us in these situations? A song like “Stand for the Right” (Children’s Songbook, 159) could add to this discussion.
If you have time you can hide these around the room. Sing it again and again as they each find a piece.
Jesus Christ is “a God of miracles.”
You might want to explain to your children that a miracle is something God does to show His power and bless our lives. Then you could read phrases from Mormon 9:11–13, 17 that describe some of God’s miracles, and your children could think of other miracles (pictures from the Gospel Art Book, such as nos. 26, 40, 41, and 83, can help). Talk about miracles that God has done in your life.
This is just a fun idea and makes it more hands on.
Show your children a recipe, and talk about what would happen if you left out an essential ingredient. Read together Mormon 8:24 and 9:20–21 to find the “ingredients” that can lead to miracles from God.
This is so fun. You could really do a lot here, especially with Thanksgiving and Christmas meals coming. They may have a favorite Christmas dessert or a Thanksgiving side dish. But what would happen if you left out the butter or the salt...that actually makes a big difference in baking? Or no blue berries in the blue berry pie?
Here are some fun recipe cards that they can use to write down the scriptures.
This wasn't a suggestion from the primary manual, but I think that having two Moroni's is confusing, and it's a good way to learn about Mormon's son Moroni while reviewing what we learned about Captain Moroni.
