Activity Days Centered Around Women from the Scriptures

Write a poem, story, or short play that teaches a principle of the gospel or is about Heavenly Father’s creations.   - Developing Talents #3 We met at our local animal shelter. I had arranged beforehand with them to give the girls a tour and a short lesson. I'd done this exact trip before, with Girl Scouts, and it was a hit. With Girl Scouts they asked to collect toilet paper tubes and bring them in for a service project where we stuffed each roll with hay for bunnies. In anticipation of that, I asked the Activity Day girls to collect and bring toilet paper tubes.   I asked the parents to have the girls at the front doors at 10am sharp. Hahaha! What was I thinking? Definitely tell them to be there 15 minutes before the tour starts. Then when people are 15 minutes late it's ok.  In fact, I think I would switch the schedule around. We did the tour first, then did the usual Activity Day stuff with prayers, songs and the lesson. I think it would work better to meet at the place 3

I need a co-leader! My wonderful partner was released from her calling, much to my dismay. Sadly, I'm having a really hard time getting it together without her. Our planned activity was Eliza R Snow: The plan was to learn about her, her poetry and her songs, and dived into 2-4 groups. We would then have an adult take each group outside into a forest and every group would be under a tree 5-15 feet away form another group. All the girls would have flashlights. One group turn on their flashlights and point it up at the branches of their tree. They would then sing one of the hymns she composed (O My Father  - The Time is Far Spent - Awake, Ye Saints of God, Awake! - Though Deepening Trials) and then turn of their flashlights. At that point, another group would turn on their flashlights and sing a different song an so on. I asked the parents to be there so I could have enough adults, alas, that afternoon I still had no volunteers. Not feeling good about having 10 young girls alone i
