A Few Conference Ideas ... Are On The WAY!!!

As I was wondering through the store
trying to think of ways to help my family
REALLY LISTEN
to Conference, I couldn't help but notice that the shelves
were filled with colored plastic eggs.
They were EVERYWHERE!!!
The more I thought about these wonderful
little things,
the more I began to realize that . . .
The plastic egg possibilities are endless!
Here's a way to make this Conference
EGGS-tra Special using plastic eggs!
Place a basket of plastic eggs on a small table in the room
you will be watching conference.
Have each family member write a question or two
from each of the talks on the cards included in the PDF.
Questions Like:
What did President Monson talk about?
What were two scriptures mentioned in the firsts session?
What color was President Eyring's tie?
Fold the cards and put them inside of the eggs.
The filled eggs will go into a separate basket.
If you have a bit of an age difference,
you may want to divide the eggs into two different colors.
One color for the older kids and the other for the
younger children.
That way, your littles won't give you the deer-in-the-headlights
face when you ask them a deep question about the atonement or
something like that!
Smaller children can also color pictures of
what the speaker is talking about on the
back of the Question Cards.
After each session
(Which just happens to be near meal time ... and a great time for a gathering!)
sit down as a family and take turns opening the eggs.
If you can answer the question correctly . . .
YOU WIN!
Prizes can be anything from
Treats to Points!
Points could used for some AMAZING PRIVILEGES like:
No Dishes for YOU!
Oh, the JOY! ... I just happen to be the best listener ... EVER!
(At least when it comes to conference talks!)
Here are the Question Cards:
Here's the PDF:
It might take a little more effort to...
but it will be soooo worth it!
More Conference Helps
Are On The Way!
