FHE activity
I found an idea for a FHE activity off of the LDS living website. I was looking for ideas to help excite the kids about conference when I stumbled upon this idea. The whole family loved it so I thought it was worth sharing with everyone. All you need is pictures of several latter-day prophets (you could play it with prophets from the scriptures also). We used the picture pack that has all the prophets through President Hinkley. It also has a sheet with thumbnail pictures of all the prophets-this was our"master copy". Then we played "Guess Who". One family member would pick a picture of the prophet. The rest of the family would gather around the "master copy" and begin asking questions. Does he have glasses? Does he have a beard" Is he sitting in a chair? Is he holding a book? Is his first name Joseph? Is your prophet ________ ?etc etc. We had to give everyone several turns to pick a prophet since they were having so much fun. Coupled with the lesson on King Benjamin and his people gathering to his words, it made for a successful FHE. With four little kids, I would not usually classify our FHEs as "successful".

I know what you mean - with four little boys, FHE is successful if we get a few songs sung without everyone complaining that Aaron picked I am a Child of God for the umpteenth time and a story read from the friend. When the HT come is also CRAZY. Joshua squealed, squirmed and screamed through the whole visit on Sunday. Anyway, thanks for the idea.
