Heavenly Father has given me power to choose.
Reading together Doctrine and Covenants 58:26–28 can give you and your children an opportunity to talk about the power Heavenly Father has given us to choose to do good. You might tell each other about various choices you’ve made and what happened as a result. Maybe your children would like to draw a picture of their experience.
For younger Children, have the gumball machine assembled. Then let them pretend to put a quarter in the machine and pull off one of the gumballs. You can read the scenario to them and ask if that would make them happy or sad.

If you would like to add some movement, you can put these happy and sad faces on opposite sides of the room. They can stand under the feeling they would feel after they hear the choice.
I feel happy when I choose to do good, I feel sad when I choose to do wrong (Only in color, you can put your printer on a BW setting)
You could write choice on one side of a piece of paper and consequence on the other and use this paper to illustrate that our choices and their consequences are inseparable. Perhaps your children could list a few choices and talk about the consequences that come from them. Then you could read together Doctrine and Covenants 58:27–28 and talk about choices that “bring to pass much righteousness” or good consequences. How does Heavenly Father “reward” or bless us as we strive to do good? (verse 28).
When you pick up the stick you get both ends! Have you students try picking up the choice end without affecting the consequence end.
If you don't have a stick you can use this as your paper, as the primary manual suggest.
After you teach about choice and consequences have them draw these out of a bowl and sort them under choice or consequence, like the picture above and match them up after they sorted.

Two gift tags this week:
Next week (June 15th) is Father's Day! Here are some ideas in my store, if you want to get ahead start.
And lastly, this weeks coloring book:
Here is a video that shows you how to assemble the coloring book, not the same coloring book, but you get the idea.
“Thank the Lord thy God in all things.”
Consider reading these verses while you and your children go for a walk or look at pictures of nature, noticing things that “please the eye and … gladden the heart” (verse 18). You could also notice similar things in a song like “My Heavenly Father Loves Me” (Children’s Songbook, 228–29). Or you might invite your children to draw pictures of things they are thankful for and let them tell you about their pictures. How can we show our gratitude for these things?
Help the children string the pieces on to some yarn, with some fruit loops or beads. They can color their tags and assemble the little necklace/prayer count-down, to remind them to say prayers of gratitude this week.
You could also notice similar things in a song like “My Heavenly Father Loves Me” (Children’s Songbook, 228–29).
2ND Verse
I really love interactive music and this subject has a lot of fun music. "For heath and strength and daily bread, we praise thy name oh Lord." The students can pick three things they are grateful for and fill in the blanks with those pictures. Then sing about it together as a class. There are some blank cards so they students can draw their own pictures of what they are thankful for.
I have a sunbeam that loves Dinosaurs, I'm so excited to tell him that he will be seeing some in today's lesson(:
A movie about teaching gratitude.
The Sabbath is the Lord’s day.
What can we do on Sunday to worship the Lord and find joy? Help your children find ideas in Doctrine and Covenants 59:9–12 and this week’s activity page. Maybe they could also find pictures or objects to represent things we do on the Sabbath (such as the pictures of the sacrament in this outline). How do these things help us feel closer to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ?
Have the children put the eyes feet, mouth, ears and hands on the boy as they talk about the things we can do with those body parts to keep the Sabbath day holy.
For older students:
They can cut slits in on the vertical lines, then rip it off when they have completed that activity.
