21 Children's Learning Resources
We begin this new year, 2022, with great faith and optimism for the future. We are excited about the wonderful resources available to help children progress along the covenant path and to draw closer to their Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ.
In an effort to follow President Russell M. Nelson’s invitation to “raise a sin-resistant generation,” we have compiled 22 simple resources that you can easily access to help children learn the gospel in 2022.
1. Sing songs as part of your “Come, Follow Me”study found in the “Come, Follow Me — for Primary” manual.
2. Add your own photos into the singalong songs on the Gospel for Kids app (Android or iOS).
3. Enjoy an art night together using the “Come, Draw with Me” videos on the Gospel For Kids YouTube channel.
4. Color in the “I Can Read the Old Testament” reading chart from the January 2022 Friend.
5. Read, listen to or watch a scripture story in the Gospel for Kids app (Android or iOS) and then color the scripture story.

It is our prayer that as we create opportunities for our precious children to seek, recognize and act upon personal revelation, they will be steadfast and immovable all the days of their lives. May we ever strive to fulfill the prophecy found in Isaiah 54:13 that “all thy children shall be taught of the Lord; and great shall be the peace of thy children.”
Throughout the year, we will be sharing our experiences with many of these resources. We invite you to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay connected.
