Achievement- Learning and Living the gospel

I am like a bear
Cuddly, soft, and sweet
My nose knows just where
Good foods are to eat

Like him, I can look
For good nourishment
In a quad sized book
I've God's testament
---------------------
I am like a bear
Cuddly, soft and sweet
There's much that we share
Like the foods that we eat

milk, I can drink....
But, I will look for meat
When I read, I link
And spiritually feast
------------------------
I can hunt through and read
the scriptures there to  find
God's words truly does feed 
the spirit and the mind

This was a nice activity for our combined summer group.
They each brought their scriptures and a teddy bear or stuffed animal. When they came in, they picked out a ribbon to put on their bear. (Some of the bears were boys)They introduced themselves and their bear and (some were adopted and named on the spot) something special about it. Then we had a prayer.

I asked questions about bears in the garden of Eden, why we could play with them. And that we will be able to when Jesus comes and we enjoy the millennium. I asked questions about what they eat, how they find it and what ways we are similar to bears. We made bookmarks. Then we talked about what the scriptures do for our spirits and that food is mentioned a lot in the scriptures and how we are nourished when we read.
Then we played a scripture hunt. (like bears) First I told them to start with 4 colors, and to write in that color, where the scriptures talked about things on the list. We had two teams and they tried to find a scripture with each of the words. I made sure that they knew the four books to look in -Book of Mormon, Old Testament, New Testament and Doctrine and Covenants/Pearl of Great Price.

Gen. 1: 29-3029 ¶ And God said, Behold, I have given you
every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face
of all the earth, and every tree, in the which
is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it
shall be for meat.
30 And to every beast of the earth,
and to every fowl of the air, and to
every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
wherein there is life, I have given every green
herb for meat: and it was so.

1 Cor. 3: 22 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat:
for hitherto ye were not able to bear it,
neither yet now are ye able.
Heb. 5: 1212 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers,
ye have need that one teach you again which
be the first principles of the oracles of God;
and are become such as have need of milk,
and not of strong meat.
D&C 89 Word of Wisdom
Moroni. 6: 4
4 And after they had been received unto baptism,
and were wrought upon and cleansed by
the power of the Holy Ghost, they were numbered
among the people of the church of Christ;
and their names were taken, that they might be
remembered and nourished by the good word of God,
to keep them in the right way, to keep them
continually watchful unto prayer, relying alone
upon the merits of Christ, who was the author
and the finisher of their faith.
