Update: I have made my door poster! And I found my USB cord, yeah!
(Don't cut the left side of the door, so that it is still attached.)
Then I covered my door with brown cardstock. Oh, I forgot...I will probably
add a little door handle. Find your locks (mind came from Microsoft Word).
Then attach those to your door. I put a little piece of velcro on the top and
bottom lock, just to make sure the door stayed closed. If you would like to add
some children print some out. I got mine from Mormonshare...I love these little
boys and girls! I thought this would help the children understand what we promise.

| For Sharing Time: When the children find the keys they will post them on the locks...like this. |
I'm sorry I have been such a slacker for this week's Sharing Time. I have been thinking of what to do, but I just couldn't come up with anything...maybe my brain is on vacation, haha. So, yesterday I drove down to Utah to spend a few days with my Sisters and my Mom (who flew up from Texas...yeah!!). I kept asking them if any of them had any good ideas that I could use, but with 9 crazy kids running around the house none of us really had time to think of ideas.
I was getting ready to post the only idea that I could think of (which is pretty much what is in the Primary Outline), and then my sister came up with this really cute idea!
She came up with an idea using a door, locks and keys (which represent our baptismal covenants). The children will find the keys and unlock each lock. Once all of the locks are unlocked the door will be able to open and reveal Heavenly Father's Promise to us.

I am going to try to make my door and locks tonight, and post a picture on here tomorrow for all of you to see. So, come back in a few days if you would like to see an example of my door.
I Hope all of you have a wonderful Mother's Day, you deserve it!!
(I'm sorry I didn't post any ideas...I totally forgot to post ideas)






















can't wait to see your door/locks. I'll have to take a picture of my weight from last week and share it with you. The lesson went so well! thank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for all the time and thought you put in to these ideas. I always look forward to seeing what great ideas you come up with. I was completely stumped on what to do for this sharing time. Your idea is perfect!

Hi Carol,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the nice comment. Sorry, I haven't posted my pictures yet, but I will tomorrow. I'll actually be in Twin tomorrow, I have to stop there for a few things before heading back to Hailey.

I am so grateful to have found your site with this fun idea for sharing time. I hope you find that cable... I could use some help with the door and locks. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! As a new sharing time leader this blog will be awesome for me!
ReplyDeleteI am just wondering what scripture references you used for Sr. Primary?
ReplyDeleteThis idea is perfect! Especially since I will be teaching in front of the Primary Stake Presidency! Thanks, can't wait to see the door you've made!
ReplyDeleteI found your blog just in time!! I LOVE this idea... like, ALOT. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your creative mind with us!
Sheena,
ReplyDeleteI really like the way your locks and keys came out could you post those on here where we could copy them ? My micro soft doesn't have those. Thank you for all your wonderful ideas.
I love this idea thank you so much for sharing I always end up getting done a little early with my sharing times so this will be perfect to add to it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all of your kind comments. I really alpreciate them.
ReplyDelete-I don't have specific scripture references to share, bur I'll be working on mine tomorrow. So if I find some to use I'll be sure to share.
-Hill: I will post those locks for you. I got them from my sister's computer, i'll call her and
have her wmail them to me.
Thank you so much for posting such great and useful ideas.
ReplyDeleteYou are AMAZING!!!! That is such a great idea, thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteWhat a smart idea! You certainly have a gift many of us wish we had. Thank you for helping us all make our own Sharing Time lessons that much better! Thank you for being so generous in sharing your ideas!!! :D
ReplyDeleteWhere did you find the pictures of the children?
ReplyDeleteThe pictures of the children come from www.mormonshare.com. Just click on clip art on the mormonshare site, then click on boy or girl and it's the 6th or 7th page. I love Mormon Share clipart it's great.
ReplyDeleteSheena, I love your blog! You have saved me more than once with your wonderful sharing time ideas. I would like to do something nice for you in return, so please come visit my blog (http://tightwadmomsfrugalforum.blogspot.com/)soon to receive your Versatile Blogger award!
ReplyDeleteWhich reference did you use for attending Church Meetings? I may just use a paragraph from a conference talk to touch on this one as Im not quite sure what to use.
ReplyDeleteAwesome...never served in Primary before...you are saving me AND the kids. :)
ReplyDeleteusing your idea today! The kids are going to be so excited to see what is behind the door. thanks for the easy and fun idea!
ReplyDeleteJillyboo- I found something that I'll probably use from the Friend. It is "A Joyful Time" from the 1992 October Friend. It talks about the importance of attending Sacrament meeting, but I'll probably add a little and tell them it's important to come to Primary also because that's where we can learn more about Jesus, etc. This article also talked a little about Standing as a Witness of God. Hope this helps. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteTightwad Mom- I am so excited to receive an award! Thank you so much, I will head on over to your site. By the way...I love your site! I was looking at it the other day and saw your 'Bountiful Basket' post. But sadly we don't have one near Hailey. Thanks again for the award and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your talents with us - I love all your suggestions for sharing times! I'm hoping you post something for the 4th week in May (Holy Ghost).
ReplyDeleteYou're a lifesaver! Thanks for the cute idea!
ReplyDeleteThis is Perfect! I grabbed your button! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for taking the time to share your ideas! I just got put into the primary and this has been such a great help for me just starting out!!
ReplyDeleteIm having a hard time getting anything to come up with your link. Obviously others are getting it though. Do I need to subscribe on that web site in order to print or read anything? I would somehow love to get these locks and keys copied. THanks
