A simple, and fantastic family home evening idea is to get index cards and write the name of a person from the scriptures on one card and on another card write a short phrase that describes what they did. You could do different sets of stories from Book of Mormon, Old Testament, New Testament, etc. This could be a quick and easy FHE game to pull out on more than one occasion. I feel like this is a great way to teach and review the stories. You could even write the scripture reference on the card and use this time to study some of the stories. One of the most important things we can teach our children are the scripture stories. Take some time to teach how we can learn from these powerful stories. Smart people learn from their own experiences and smarter people learn from other's experiences! The Lord speaks to us through the scriptures.
Examples from Old Testament
| Person | Action |
|---|---|
| Adam | Left the Garden of Eden |
| Enoch | His righteous city was translated |
| Noah | Built an ark |
| Abraham | Willing to sacrifice his son |
| Rebekah | Left her family to marry Isaac |
| Joseph | Forgave his brothers |
| Moses | Saved his people from bondage |
| Ruth | Accepted the gospel from her mother-in-law |
| David | With the strength of the Lord, killed a giant |
| Elijah | Fed by ravens during a drought |
