We have been trying to help our kids memorize the First Article of Faith.  So naturally I thought a craft will help!

I got the inspiration for this craft from a frame my little sister did 10 plus years ago when she was in Achievement Days.  I had the paint and brushes, so this project only cost me $1.75.  The frame from the Dollar Store was $1.00 and the 5×7 picture of Christ from the LDS Churches Distribution Center was $.75.  If you don’t have a Distribution Center near you, you can order these online HERE.

I had two left over frames and a couple extra pictures of Christ from doing this activity with my 8-10 year old church class.  I decided it would be fun to do with my little ones.  They had a blast and were super focused on painting their frames.

This was a great opportunity to get a picture of their “concentration faces”

Love those faces.

After they were done painting their frames they both started having a little too much fun painting.

We just went with it…

Why not?!! haha… there’s always the tub. Which we did while our frames dried.

After bath time, they both got to pick out a picture of Jesus that they liked.  This was there favorite part.  They were both so gitty and excited.

We put their pictures in the frames and they thought this was WAY TOO COOL.

Then I told them to take them and put them in a special place in their rooms.  They took off running like little laughing maniacs.  I love how excited little kids get.  Now they both have a special frame they made with a picture of Christ in their rooms.  I love my Savior Jesus Christ and I love my kids.  I hope they will grow to know their Savior and the love He has for them.

I hope you can use this idea to create a fun Family Home Evening for you and your munchkins. You can do it will any age.  Have fun!
