This week was a little bit of review. We learned about the Liahona last week and we learned about when they crossed the sea this week and earlier in the year we learned about when Nephi built the boat. When we reviewed I asked the girls what did the Lord give Lehi that was like a compass Eleanor replied with "Leonardo?" I think we watch too much Ninja Turtles.
We read from the scripture stories and from the Book of Mormon in Nephi 18. My favorite passage was 18:6 which I made our family sign using the Rhonda Designs app on my phone. I love how it turned out!
We then took it out to "sea" aka bathtub. Trevor made us some boats that were seaworthy and we set sail. I filled up the tub just a bit and we launched out boats one a time. The water was calm just as it was when Nephi and his family first set sail. As they started to sin and "forget by what power they had been brought" the storms came and the Liahona stopped working and I turned on the bath water. Iris's boat was lost at sea all together. I didn't know this but it took them 4 days to remember and to repent but repent they did and turn off the storm of the bath I did. The Liahona began to work again and the Lord continued to bless them and direct their sails, and so the girls blew on their boats and led them to safety. This was the girls favorite part. Thanks to Blue Skies Ahead for the Idea!
