Family night fun!
Once MONTH we have family night as an extended family with my siblings. Tonight we went to Fitch park in Mesa, that's where half of my family does their turn for family night only because there are bathrooms and it's close to most of them. My sister Janie did the coolest lesson about When Jesus was a little child . We sang the songs about Jesus as a child, heard the story about Jonah and the whale, learned some Hebrew in a cute story, played the driedel game and then had food from Jesus' time, Olives, dates, goat cheese, matzo bread, hummus,Pita bread, grapes, grape juice and leavened bread(rolls) . The kids loved it! sorry no pictures. She had done it for Primary once and made the boys all yarmulkes and scarves for the girls. and she copied the cutest books for everyone with the rules for the dreidel game and the Hebrew story in it. Very fun and educational family night! and since she planned ahead at Christmas time or Hanukkah she bought all the kids a dreidel to keep! the were all very excited.
