"Butterflies Are Free" Repentance Garden

Product Details

20 Visuals (Color, Black-and-White, and Instructions)

Help children/youth compare themselves to a butterfly that wants to be free from the weight of sin (place butterfly visual under a rock) with this Butterflies Are Freekitt. By saying we are sorry and making amends, and by not repeating the mistake, we become free to spread our wings and be happy (place butterfly visual on the flower). We can taste the sweet nectar of the gospel and follow Heavenly Father’s plan.

Set the butterflies free by doing the following. Have children take turns drawing a rock or flower and reading it aloud. If choosing a rock, place the butterfly on the rock. If they tell how they can repent of the wrong choices, they can move the butterfly from the rock onto the highest flower (keep the butterfly on the rock until the first flower is drawn). If choosing a flower, place the flowers on the bottom leaves and work up. If playing in teams, the first team to move their butterfly to the top flower wins!
