Remember Him

Invite one child to the front and ask him/her to

sit very tall in a chair without moving a muscle.

 Keep silent and time him/her for 30 seconds to

see if he/she can sit perfectly still.

Tell the children: It is hard to sit perfectly still

when you don't have something to think about. 

Listen as I sing, and tell me, who we can

think about as we sit very still?  (Jesus)

Sing: To Think About Jesus  71

Tell the children:  While we are sitting in Sacrament Meeting or in Primary,

we can think about things Jesus would want us to do.

Write on the board: Jesus Wants Me To....

Set up eight chairs in the front of the room. 

Call on eight children to sit in the chairs. 

Give each child one picture or prop(s) per song.

Then sing the songs and see if the children can figure out

what Jesus wants them to do.  Write the answers on the board.
