My CTR 7 was in charge of sharing time and the topic was on the Holy Ghost.
I made a large invitation just out of 2 poster boards tied with ribbon. We talked about how it feels to be invited to a party or any other kind of event. Then we talked about how important it is to invite the Holy Ghost into our lives. Before all the classes came into the primary room we stuck pictures of how to invite the Holy Ghost underneath random chairs. When it came time we had everyone look under their chairs to see who had a picture. Each person with a picture, took turns sticking the picture on the inside of the invitation. Each member of my class talked about the picture and gave details to how this helps to invite the Holy Ghost into our lives.
We also wrapped up a box with multiple layers of wrapping paper. We had the pianist play songs about the Holy Ghost while each child passed the present to the next. When the music stopped, the child holding the present unwrapped a layer of wrapping paper. This continued until the box was completely unwrapped. Inside the box was a blanket and a poem about the Holy Ghost being a special gift to us.
At my local scrapbook store I used a little miniature die cut to cut out all these little boxes. They were so cute since they where only about the size of a quarter. We filled each box with white jellybeans. We gave these to each of the primary children as they exited to remind them about the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Thank You, Thank You, to my awesome SIL Ashley who made a FHE packet on all of this. I stole everything from her FHE packet and just made it larger. My SIL had invited me to be a part or a FHE swap with her. I have some of the greatest FHE's because of it. Thanks Again Ashely!
