yesterday we had our end of year primary activity at the local water playground. it was just hot enough and lovely to run about in the water and on the grass. we didn't have all the kids, which is to be expected in december as everyone always has so many plans, but those who were there enjoyed themselves, especially with the bbq dinner at the end.
i am a member of an lds primary presidencies group on facebook and over time have seen so many amazing ideas on there for things that can be done with the kids to improve their spirituality and relationship with the lord. one that really struck me was that one ward had ordered a copy of the lds friend magazine as a year long subscription to be delivered out to each family for a year! best.idea.ever. i jumped on it and put it to our president and bishopric who also loved it and that was our gift to all our primary families. quite literally the gift that keeps on giving, all year long!
we handed out their subscription cards at the activity and some at church and the last few to letterboxes, but all the parents loved it and were super stoked with the gift. i'm hoping this is the beginning of something amazing and we can do it each year if it continues to be so well received.
merry christmas to our primary peeps!
