I just got called to teach the 8-9 year olds and do Activity days too!!
This has been such a fun calling.
I absolutly love the girls and I get to teach Kaitlyn
which is such a great blessing.
Yesterday we had activity days
and I wanted to come up with an idea that will help motivate the girls
to get their Achievment Award before they turn twelve.
So I went to www.sugardoodle.net and found this fabulous idea;
I am so excited about.
(Developing Talents, Serving Others, Living the Gospel)
They are required to pass off eight goal in each area.
So everytime they pass off a goal they color in a petal with a fabric pen.
The 13 stones represent the 13 Articles of Faith they need to memorize.
And the five hearts represent the goal for being prepared for Young Womens
Each one they pass off we iron on a rhinstone.
We encourage them to put thier Faith in God book,
Scriptures, and a jounal inside thier bag and get it out every night before
bed and take about 15-20 min. writing in thier journal,
reading thier scriptures, or working on thier goals.
If you have a daughter that is of activity day age.
I totally recommend making this bag for them.
My girls are so excited to get working on thier goals,
so the next time we meet they can
add to thier bag.
It also helps them develop great habits.
To make them,
You will need:
1 canvas tote bag
1 transfer paper
iron on rhinestones
a fabric pen
Iron
piece of cardboard.
To make:
1. go to www.sugardoodle.net and get the template
I did have to download some fonts
to my computer, they are on the
website too.
(If you have trouble downloading,
just google how to download fonts.)
2. Print the template onto transfer paper.
(make sure you print the mirror image,
there was a t-shirt transfer print
option on my computer or
select mirror image print option)
3. Heat iron on highest setting.
4. Put a piece of cardboard inside the bag.
5. Center the transfer on the bag and
iron for about 7-8 minutes.
6. peel the transfer paper off and Wa La!!
7. Decorate the bag as the girls pass off thier goals.
