Come & Do
Do you ever wonder how to help children connect with the scriptures? Come and Do is for Primary teachers and parents who are preparing Come, Follow Me lessons and want their kids to be creating, moving, and acting in the gospel, not just listening to it.
Join a former elementary school teacher, Whitney Boyer, every week for fresh lesson ideas and practical teacher tips designed to turn passive learning into active discipleship- encouraging movement, creativity, discussion, and personal expression. Grounded in the truth that children are agents and creative beings, these lessons invite students to discover the gospel for themselves.
