Because it is so cute and goes so good with this weeks lesson, I am starting off with Mitzi's idea from comefollowmekid.com

Awful Monster, Come Follow Me Free Prints, 2 Nephi 9, build a monster, learn scriptures for children, LDS primary lesson helps, FHE, Spiritual death, Without the Atonement of Jesus Christ, death and sin would be like awful monsters

She chose to focus and teach on 2 Nephi 9 where it talks about the "Awful monster."

Here are her instructions:

Monster vs. Christ Activity:

· Ask, “What would happen to us without the Atonement of Jesus Christ?”

· Monster: Show the monster face and explain that Jacob (Nephi’s younger brother) used the words “awful” and “monster” to explain what sin and death would be like if it weren’t for Christ’s Atonement.

· Cut out the face parts and let the kids choose them one at a time to glue onto the monster face. As each is being glued, ask if it sounds like an awful, scary thing. Discuss what it means and how it describes how our lives would be different without Christ’s Atonement.

· Christ: After helping kids realize how scary life without the Atonement sounds, hold up the picture of Christ and discuss how he can save us from these scary things (death and sin).

· Talk about what the word “deliver” means. If you had been captured by this awful monster, what would it look like to be “delivered” from him?

· Read 2 Nephi 9:10-13. Have them hold up both the monster and the Christ pictures. Tell them to listen carefully for the words “escape” and “deliver.” Whenever they hear those words while you read these verses, they can use the pictures to act out Christ chasing the monster away.

I made this like a little book, incase you wanted to laminate it, and attach velcro, so children can do it multiple times.

I also made a bigger version for Primary teachers, and those of you using it for a bigger group of children.

I also very much love what the primary manual teaches about sin and the Atonement.

Come Follow Me- For Primary page 25 "Tell the children a story of a person who fell in to a pit..."

I took the Primary Manual's picture and colored it and made it bigger, for easier teaching.

Come Follow Me-For Primary page 26 “Display a picture of Jesus next to a picture of a child. Read 2 Nephi 7:1, and explain that when God’s people stop obeying His gospel, it’s like they have ”divorced” Him. Move the picture of the child away from the picture of Jesus to show that when we don’t keep our covenants...we separate ourselves from Heavenly Father and Savior.

Come Follow Me-For Primary page 26 “Ask the children to help you draw a path on the board, and invite them to add some obstacles or Road blocks along the path. Read together 2 Nephi 9:10, and invite the children to label the obstacles on the path with words from this verse that describe obstacles that keep us from returning to God. Then talk about how Jesus Christ overcame these obstacles for us (see Nephi 9:21-23), as you do, invite the children to erase (remove) the obstacles.”

Here are some obstacles you can add to your path.
