Life's a little slower for us. Yesterday the Rainbow Maker and I did a little art project. Here's how her's turned out.

It's the Church's 2014 Mutual theme, here with my design. I wanted to see how this type of design would turn out with it. It's a hand drawn, ink drawing and I kind of like it. I did my print on watercolor paper and watercolors. She did here's on smooth art paper and markers.

And because some of you aren't in YW here is a blank one to use. This might work for youth to color in during General Conference and put a quote in the blank section. Or maybe something for Primary. You can tell us how you thought to use it.

FHE • Short & Sweet for Toddlers

4/1/2013

 
A week before LDS NEST's first Newsletter was due out our harddrive died. Which led to the loss of the whole issue without any backed up files. We did well to put the issue together in a week but there were a few things that didn't make it in. So, lucky for our LDS NEST non subscribers we're posting it to show what will go in next time. Kind of like another sample of what the Newsletter & Notes is like. 

This section is FHE for younger ones, called Short & Sweet. It's just a song, scripture, picture, and treat. Short & Sweet. Just for that age group. But, we can see it being used for kids older too. It can give them an outline they can use to give the lesson. Or maybe your family is just short on time and you need something that's not going to last too long. The SAY part can be a discussion of any length. You get the idea, it can be used in a variety of ways. 

Oh, and the great part is that there are hyperlinks when you download the PDF. If you click on the SING, it will take you to that song on LDS.org. There is an audio that has a child singing (you don't even need to know the songs) and plays the music too. If you click on the SAY, it goes to that scripture. Click on the SHOW and it goes to the picture listed. (No SWEETS links. Yet.) Nice, huh? We think so.

Let us know what you think or how it went using them.

Spotlight Traditions • Long Distance

3/29/2013

We introduced SPOTLIGHTS in our Newsletter & Notes for April. It's a great family tradition. This is one way we put it into practice for our Marine son.

One night when we were on our way to get a treat for FHE we did SPOTLIGHT in the car. We had the time and included everyone. Our son happened to text me while we were traveling. I decided that we need to do SPOTLIGHT for him. It was really nice to include him even though there's such a distance between us. 

Just after texting SPOTLIGHT with Reece one of our daughters called. I told her what we'd just done with her brother and she said she wanted to do it with us too. So we did SPOTLIGHT with her, everyone saying something about her. But, I found out what she really wanted to do was to say something nice about everyone else. Which she did. 

It was such a great way to connect with a couple of our kids. We've been doing SPOTLIGHT for many years and there's just something about sharing things you like about each other. If done right (tips in the Newsletter) then it just makes you feel the love. Whether your giving or receiving.
