Word of Wisdom F.H.E.

Sorry, I've been meaning to contribute for some time now....

I have a 2 year old and a 3 year old, so we have to keep F.H.E. short, sweet, involved, and very interesting. Sometimes I succeed. This Family home evening went over well.

Preparation: Find about 6 clip art pictures of 5 food groups, exercising, strong healthy people, someone sleeping, etc... Find about 6 clip art pictures of cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, sick people, coffee, tea, etc.... Color the good things brightly and leave the others black and white.
Have a poster, chalk or white board with the words Good and Bad(I used sad and happy faces because my kids don't read) written at the top with a line down the middle to separate them.
Make three word strips:
1. Allow your body enough rest (front) D&C 88:124 (back) write the scripture out.
2. Don't take harmful substances into your body (front) D&C 89:7-9 (back) write the scripture out.
3. Be Careful of what you eat or put into your body (front) Deuteronomy 14:3 (back) write the scripture out.

Opening song: My Heavenly Father Loves Me, Children's Songbook #228

Prayer

Lesson: Read the scriptures on the words strips and then the explanations on the front. If you have children who read, let them read the wordstrips.
For those of you who have older children reference the talk Boyd K. Packer, “‘Ye Are the Temple of God’,” Ensign, Nov 2000.

Activity: Have all the clip art pictures(see preparations) in an envelope. Let the kids pull them out and place them on the side of the board they think they go on. Talk about why the thing is good or bad.

Prayer

Treat: Eat something healthy and yummy

Go to bed early!
