Articles of Faith GAME SHOW!!!!

The girls played the Articles of Faith Game Show in which there were three categories and a great big tick-tack-toe board. The first team to win two tick-tack-toe games won the entire game show. The three categories were specific for each row of the tick-tack-toe board. The categories were PHYSICAL CHALLENGE, Articles of Faith TRIVIA, and RECITING the Articles of Faith.
The 8-9 year old girls were the "X" team and the 10-11 year old girls were the "O" team. Most of the pictures were from the PHYSICAL CHALLENGES.

Rebecca and Amberlee were challenging each other to see who could put the puzzle together the fastest.
Grace got to sing "I'm a Little Tea Pot" with the actions - OPERA STYLE! She did a great job!
Kennedy and Olivia were in a sword balloon fight together. This is after they had both popped their swords.
Zara and Tahia were putting two sentences together using conversation hearts.




Ryan was blindfolded and feeding Olivia pudding. Baily was blindfolded and feeding Sydney pudding. It was hilarious and they both did a great job! You can see it was lots of fun!

McKenna quickly won this challenge, by finding the pink paper in one of the balloons, so with all the left over balloons all the girls joined in to help pop them by sitting on them.
This was the "O" team thinking carefully before answering one of the trivia questions.
Grace and Cassidy were trying to fit as many marshmallows in their mouths as they could in one minute. It was impressive!

Kenndy and Tahia were trying to find as many beads within a whole container of dry beans as they could while they were blindfolded. They kept their cool and did very well!


Whitney and Baily had the jello snarfing contest. Whitney can really snarf that jello!

It was a great activity and the girls did a wonderful job reciting the Articles of Faith! Keep on memorizing to pass them off!

Balloon Swords & Flowers

The girls learned to make balloon swords and flowers to help them develop new talents. They will use these new skills to help their moms make a balloon flower at our Mother-Daughter Luau.

FHE kits for Christmas!

The girls made FHE kits with the Nativity Story, many songs and plans for FHE. These are great for the girls to learn how to plan and conduct an FHE while getting another requirement passed off in the Faith in God Book.


We also celebrated Tahia and Kennedy's birthdays with cupcakes. Happy Birthday girls!
