JD and I have had Primary callings pretty much since we got married. We have taught 10 year olds, 9 year olds, and we are currently teaching the 7 year olds. Primary is definately one of my favorite places to be. This year particularly has been hilarious being with the junior primary classes. A few of the fun things that we have been taught lately or experienced with the kids include:
During an object lesson a presidency member had a candy bar and asked if she could just eat the candy (getting at the point you needed to open the wrapper first), a sunbeam piped up from the front row: Oh no! You have to ask your mom or dad first!
Same day, same sun beam: after singing a song the primary chorister asked if everyone had been singing, his response: I wasn't! I just don't know any of those words!
We asked our primary class what the Holy Ghost was a member of (getting at Godhead) the answer: Mormon Tabernacle Choir
While singing Follow the Prophet kids were called up to do something for kids to follow during the chorus (wave hands, clap, spin around etc). For Jonah one of our class members was called on, once the chorus started he bared his teeth made claw hands and started growling (to be the whale) we had a primary full of monsters throughout the chorus.
When an 8 year old was asked in a sharing time lesson how he felt after he repented: "Heartly.....it's a new emotion"
bahaha that is so awesome.
ReplyDeleteone time i was helping my mama teach sunbeams and she asked, "what is the name of our church?" and one of the little boys said "the church of jesus christ of latter day states of america."
