Jesus wants us to share with others. Can you think of something you can share with someone? What does this mean to you? It might mean sharing a toy with your brother or taking a treat to a neighbor. Sometimes sharing means letting someone use something you own, or it could mean telling someone how you feel when you attend Primary. You can share not only toys and food, but thoughts, feelings and ideas.

Watch this video of your Primary friends from the 18th ward talking about ways they can share with others. (video coming soon!)

For the Little Ones: Jesus loved sharing! He shared in many different ways. He loves us and wants us to share with others too. How can we share like Jesus did? We can share our toys, we can share a treat, we can share crayons, or by sharing the gospel.

Suggested songs to learn this month:

“I Know That My Redeemer Lives,” Hymns, no. 136
“Have I Done Any Good?” Hymns, no. 223
“I Feel My Savior’s Love,” Children’s Songbook, 74–75

Song of the Month

Music is a powerful tool that can help children learn the Gospel! Here are tips for teaching the Song of the Month.

January - Joseph Smith's First Prayer (Hymns no. 26)

Try putting actions with each line of the song.

February - I Want to Be a Missionary Now (CS pg. 103)

Sing the song to the children, and then repeat but take out a key word, like "missionary" and see if the kids can guess what word belongs there.

March - When I am Baptized (CS pg. 103)

Have the children draw pictures of something that goes with each line of the song. As you sing, have them hold up the picture that goes with each line.

April - Jesus Said Love Everyone (CS pg. 61)

Telephone game - whisper the first line of the song into the child's ear, and have them pass it on to the next child or family member. Continue on until the last person says what they heard. Repeat with the next line and so on.

May - Choose the Right (Hymns, no.239)

Say the words to the song and have the children hurry and stand up and then sit down every time they hear "Choose the Right". Eventually have them sing it with you and see if they can stand up and sit down while singing the words.

June - I'm Trying to Be like Jesus (CS pg. 78-79)

This song is easiest to teach one line at a time. Go through the first line of the song, and have one child or family member choose an action for the others to follow as they all sing the first line of the song (swaying from side to side, rolling arms, etc.). Repeat the SAME line of the song but have someone else choose a different action for everyone to follow. Repeat a couple times until everyone knows the first line, then move on to the next line.
