Lucky VS Blessed

I got this idea from Primary Singing Time Ideas.   We discuss what it means to be lucky and what it means to be blessed.  Each of my shamrocks have a picture on them that corresponds with a song that helps us remember how lucky/blessed we are.

Name That Primary Love Song

I got the idea from Camille's Primary Ideas.  I have the kids come up and pick a card WITHOUT looking at the card, they give it to our pianist.  She then plays a little bit of the song to see who can guess that song from the little bit that she plays.  Sometimes I have a bell and I make teams, I then pick the card and give it to our pianist to play and then see which team can guess it first after they ring the bell.  There are so many variations.  Fun and simple!

Picking Primary Helpers

I have a hard time picking kids, so I made my Primary Helpers.  The red one is for Junior Primary and the blue one is for Senior Primary.  Most of them have the kids names on them, I even have extra for when we have visitors.  I got the idea from the blog: Little LDS Ideas.  The faces can be downloaded from Mormon Share.  These come in handy every Sunday, even for the Primary Presidency.

Organization in a Crate

Here are some of the ways I have organized things in my Primary to help with with my calling as Primary Chorister.  I have put everything in a lovely crate to keep everything in one spot.  I have things organized by song, what ever I have on a particular song is in that file.  I also have some of my games and other things stored in this crate.

Me as a Chorister

My sister-in-law was recently called as the Primary Chorister in her ward.  I am so excited for her!  I have been our ward's Primary Chorister for a little over 2 years.  I honestly thought they were crazy for calling me because I am not musically talented.  However, I LOVE the Primary Kids and I love the Primary Hymns.  I have had more fun in this calling then should be allowed.  So, to help myself remember all the fun things I have done over the years, and to help out Sarah,  here are some of the things I have created, done, borrowed, and made for Primary (in no particular order).

Please note that I am re-posting items close to the holiday it is near if it is a holiday idea.

Status Update

Not to toot my own horn, but my Primary kids sang GREAT today in Sacrament Meeting! I was so nervous that I was going to mess them up with my leading and crazy singing. They did such a beautiful job. I LOVE my calling as Primary Chorister!
