Family Home Evening—Leaves

Our theme for family home evening this week was: leaves. For the lesson we learned that when someone wants to begin again, or start behaving in a new way, they are doing what is often referred to as turning over a new leaf. This idiom, can also relate to the gospel. When someone repents, they are turning from bad behavior to good behavior. In essence, they are turning over a new leaf.

After the lesson, we then made a leaf garland from leaves found in our backyard. And then to top off our lesson and activity, we had leaf cupcakes that were a definite hit—my kids love eating our weekly theme.




And all in all, our theme turned out to be just what we needed for the week.
