B7 Primary Girls Enjoy Activity Days

From painting ornaments to give as gifts to attending Shakespeare's the "Tempest," the B7 Primary Activity Days group has filled their Saturday mornings (and one Friday afternoon) with much learning and lots of laughter.

The girls have worked on "Learning and Living the Gospel" by making Sacrament bread, studying scripture to find their own "superheroes" by choosing any of God's super servants and uncovering his or her super powers. 

Special guest Tina Forsyth shared her interest in genealogy while the girls continued working on their pedigree charts. Then, each girl shared a memento from an ancestor, heard stories about her ancestors, learned more about the meaning of her name and how her name was selected for her and talked about family traditions. 

Rolling a Hawaiian luau, a game show and day of pampering into one, the girls were treated to mini-manicures after playing a question and answer game about food and nutrition. Then, they cleaned and prepped a healthful snack of pineapple, strawberries and grapes, designed their own modest dress wardrobe for paper dolls and learned about why dressing modestly is important.

Finally, in "Serving Others" the group picked up trash and debris at Bloomington Park. Armed with gloves and bags, the girls scoured the park removing litter from the playground and ball park area while remembering the Good Samaritan and Jesus' ultimate role of serving all of us.

The Activity Days group extends a warm welcome to new leader, Joy Alldredge.
