Scripture
"Feast upon the words of Christ; for behold, the words of Christ will tell you all things what ye should do." (2 Nephi 32:3)
Jenny's Tips
This year's theme is so exciting! I can't wait for my children to strengthen their testimonies of Scripture Study!
Primary leaders may want to make a bulletin board relating to this year's Scripture theme. Your bulletin board could include pictures of the children with their scriptures or charts to keep track of children that remember to bring their scriptures to Primary.
To emphasize the theme you might provide an incentive to any child who reads daily for a week, month, or more. Many years ago in our Branch we had a "Consecutive Club" and received certificates after reading daily for 1 month, a bookmark at 3 months, a pin or tie tack at 6 months, and a t-shirt if we read for an entire year.
