Ammon and King Lamoni hinged missionary dolls
OBJECTIVE: The lesson helps children understand that Jesus Christ helps missionaries teach others about his Church. Study Alma 17-19.
Review the discussion and scripture (p. 113) in the Primary 3 manual, lesson 24 for which the following activity illustrates (see below*).
ACTIVITY #1: Hinged Missionary Doll
The great missionary, Ammon, brought the gospel to King Lamoni. Roleplay the story as you move dolls. Read messages on dolls, turning dolls around with each part. Ammon was a good servant who protected the king’s sheep (see below*) and shared his testimony of Jesus Christ. Ammon trusted in the Spirit to help him teach. The king trusted and listened to him.
TO MAKE: Print or copy, color, and cut out the activity on cardstock paper. Glue doll parts back-to-back, gluing hands together (not arms), feet together (not legs), and top of heads together (not neck). Attach body parts with a paper fastener (metal or button brads). See Lesson 22 to make the brad.
THOUGHT TREAT: Missionary M&M’s or Pretzel Sticks. Purchase two treats for each child and tell children that when missionaries today go out to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, they go in twos.
