 Two Great Halloween Activity Pages That Are Essential For Your Next Party! 

Life has been so busy lately!! You should see my kitchen, usually I never let dishes pile up in both sides of my sink. But between teaching seminary again, planning a ward party and just life with kids, I've fallen behind a little on those every day house duties. With being so busy, I haven't been posting on here regularly. I had some much interest in both of these activity pages, that I really wanted to get them posted on here. So, if you can use them this year great! If not this year, make sure you save them or pin them for next year.

Colorable General Conference Bingo Handout Idea Great for Primary and Youth

Colorable General Conference Bingo Handout Idea Great for Primary and Youth,

General Conference is one of my very most favorite things!! Being able to listen to direction and guidance from the Lord's servant's really is, just the best!! I feel like every age group can listen and come away with something they get out of Conference. We have always tried to make it a family event. We usually are all in the same room, our living room, watching General Conference together.

I know that it can be difficult for little ones, or even teenagers. So I've always liked to provide them with something to do. My current calling is serving in our Ward Primary, I really wanted to give all of our primary children something to get them excited and encourage them to listen to General Conference. I felt like my mission was accomplished on Sunday when I handed them out and the kids were so excited to get them!

I decided to do a small and simple General Conference Bingo. I will also be sending an email out to the families with other resources that they can use. 

So, a little bit about these Bingo cards. The Primary children can use them a couple of different ways. I had attached fruit snacks to the bingo cards, so, they can use the fruit snacks to mark their spaces. When they see or hear the item, they can mark it with a fruit snack. The other option is to color in the spaces when they see or hear the item in the space. It was so funny, because one of the kids said, "Then we can have the fruit snack as our reward". So, yes, then they could just eat the fruit snacks. 

I've made the printable so that there are 4 to a page. I printed them off onto card stock. It is black and white, so it is really easy to copy.

A Fun Ministering or Neighbor Gift, Christmas Can of Nuts Gnomes Tutorial and Free Gift Tag Printable

 A Fun Ministering or Neighbor Gift, Christmas Can of Nuts Gnomes,

Every year I try to come up with something fun to give my ministering sister and neighbors for Christmas. Last year it was the Root beer Reindeer and the cookie mixes. This year, I really wanted to do gnomes. So with that in mind, I went to the store to find a container that would be my base. These ones are done our of a can of peanuts. But you could use a can of hot cocoa mix, or another nut mix. Then I knew I was probably going to use yarn for the beard. So, I went down the yarn isle. I found this faux fur yarn and immediately knew that, it was what I was going to use!! I wanted to find some wooden balls or knobs, but there were none in the store, so I knew I was just going to have to figure something out.
