See a CRAFT and a COLORING POSTER for each lesson.
NOTE: Younger children may do better with the COLORING PAGES. Where older children are more interested in the CRAFTS. Many nurseries do both.
TWO ACTIVITIES TO CHOOSE FROM FOR EACH LESSON: “a” is a craft activity, and “b” is a poster or coloring page:

PRINTING SUGGESTIONS FOR MATURITY LEVEL
- BUNDLE #1 craft activities for older children
- BUNDLE #2 poster/coloring pages for younger
These great lesson-match activities are great teaching tools; so you may want to print at least one in color (or one you have colored) to show during the lesson or while taking photos*. Remember, children love to color and it’s a great way to talk about the lesson ideas while they are coloring.
BEYOND Lessons 1-30
See our “More Lessons For Nursery and EXTRAS” section in the Primary Nursery menu.
*TAKING PHOTOS
- Children can hold up the activity and you can take a photo of the color-printed version (you teach with) or the one they have colored to take home. This is a great way for them to remember lessons taught and see them mature throughout the year.
LAMINATING
- If printing in color you may want to laminate before cutting out the activities, printing them on card-stock. Or, laminating helps, using Contact paper. When one child wore his temple tie every day and back to nursery the next week. The teacher said, “If I knew he was going to like it so much, I would have laminated it.”

Hi can the nursery sunday savers be purchased as a downloadable file as I am in Australia and shipping alone is 92.00 US dollars which is excessive.

If you are looking for that little extra something in your lesson each week, then buy this CD ROM. It is absolutely fabulous. 3 year old children fresh from the nursery go through such an amazing transformation their first year in Primary. Coming from a playtime environment with snacks and treats to a more structured, learning environment with spiritual stimulation allows you as the teacher to witness their growth right before your eyes.
The activities on this CD ROM not only get their attention but help them retain what you (by the Spirit) are teaching them. Parents will enjoy the fact that they can use the activities you send home to re-enforce gospel principles throughout the week. They are great for Family Home Evening and just about anytime you want to invite the Spirit into your home.
You can print them in black and white, or color. Letting the children color their own activity is very engaging, but for the lessons that can foster a bigger impact both during class and at home, print them in color. I prefer to laminate those activities so they can be used over and over again.
A few of my favorites are:
Lesson 4 I can Pray to my Heavenly Father – the activity is of Daniel in the Lions Den – lamenated with detachable Daniel and Lions via velcro coins makes this a forever keepsake activity for the children you teach. They will enjoy retelling the story with their very own visual aid.
Lesson 16 I love my body – this activity includes the face of Daniel, mouth slit open, which allows for paper food to slide in like he is eating. Printing in color and on cardstock makes the food easy to put in his mouth.
Lesson 24 I love my brothers and sisters – this activity of the baby Moses scene lets the children tell the story of how baby Moses was put in a basket and how his sister followed him on his was to Pharohs wife.
Lesson 31 I am thankful for my home – activity is the picture of a jar on a piece of paper with tasks (jobs) the children can complete at home. This one is one of my all time favorites!
You will see as the year goes by, there will be no need for a food distraction when the children are being taught lessons outlined by the church coupled with activities to reinforce what is being taught.
Thank you ladies for your creativity that allows me to help teach choice spirits of our Heavenly Father!
I purchased this and love it! The only problem is we purchased a new Apple and no longer have a dvd rom. Any suggestion? I haveMany of your primary Cd,s and would love to acces them from home.
We have a MAC also and can print from the MAC. It reads on the latest CD-ROMS: WINDOWS/MAC CD-ROM. If you have an older version perhaps you could take it to a copy / print shop and they can print them for you. You can also contact our publisher for this 1-800-664-9545.
I was wondering if they have the same activities in SPANISH? I would lile to have both versions 🙂
Most of the activities can be made in Spanish. See our Language Translations section under Customer Care for details.
