Conference Watching Kit

Conference Watching Kit

Twice a year we have General Conference and do not meet on Sunday for class. The week prior, I like to hand out a “Conference Watching Kit” to each child. Those who are absent still get one when I bring it to their house later in the week.

Some time during class, I talk about what General Conference is, perhaps showing pictures of the First Presidency and 12 apostles. I testify that they speak for Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. I encourage them to watch it with their families. I tell them that I will be watching it too and that I have prepared some activities for them to do while they watch it. I hand the sack to their parent when they pick up from class to be sure the parent follows through and keeps it safe until next Sunday. Here is an example letter that I put inside the sack:
