“Display pictures of things that grow gradually and need constant care, like a plant or a baby animal. Ask the children to share how we take care of these things and help them grow. Remind them that we must also take constant care of our testimonies.”
Children can put these pictures in the correct order.
Use an empty balloon to represent a testimony and blow air into it each time you share something that helps testimonies grow.

If you are a family who creates a big bonfire of everyones testimonies on your wall, please share pictures.
