Coloring book
I don't remember who it was, but someone asked me about the booklets they handed out at our Stake Conference. There were 3 double sided sheets of paper. This was the cover, which I thought was cool with the date on it.
They had just photocopied the funstuff from different Friend Magazines. all of it had to do with Thanksgiving because it was the week before.
There were Stake Primary people at every entrance with baskets full of crayons and pencils and the coloring books. It was a great way for the Stake to greet all the children.

Finally....I "caught up" on your blog. Our stake does this too, only not a booklet but a few worksheets. I thought it was so nice of them to think of all the kids.

I LOVE the snorkel cake. I will have to remember that one.

I also loved looking at all of your Christmas cards past. Do you think it is a problem that I haven't even thought about that yet?

I have a blank kitchen wall where I hang all of the cards on ribbon until after the holidays. Then I scrapbook all of the pictures we received that year and put it in the scrapbook to end our year. I love going back to look at them. Sometimes I use the cute cards as embellishments.

Ours did that too. It was great and kept the kids entertained!

I am so jealous of this booklet for stake conference. I might have to take this to the higher ups and tell them we NEED it! But what if they tell me to do it....I'll have to think of that!

Ours hasn't done that but it is a GREAT idea... I do this for my kids for sacrament meeting... you can good LDS clipart and find great coloring book pages....

I need to let our Stake Primary presidency know about this.....

I am the one who asked for more details. Thanks for posting this. I will for sure do this for the kids in our stake in a few weeks when we have Stake Conference.

This is such a cool idea. Our ward did this for general conference and I loved it...so did my kids.

what a wonderful idea! I've never seen anyone do this before. It sounds like a big project, but so nice to give the kids something to do.

That's a great idea. I can't imagine any Stake in Utah doing that, they'd have to clear the rainforest to get enough paper. Ha.
