Primary Music Idea - Follow the Prophet

“He spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began” (Luke 1:70)

I have been debating for weeks as to how I wanted to teach “Follow the Prophet” (page 110-111 Children’s Songbook) this year. In the past, I have used puppets, dressed up the children, etc… However, those just didn’t feel right to me this year. I have decided to go with the Gospel Art Kit Photos of the Prophets. I also made footprints with photos of our current Apostles and Prophets on them. Our Primary children are focusing on learning the names of the Prophets and Apostles so I thought it would be fun to place the Gospel Art Kit Photos around the room with the footprints in between. Since this song falls in the month of MARCH…I thought we could get the children up and MARCHING from Prophet to Prophet while we sing the song. Between verses we will talk about the names of the Prophets and the Apostles. A short description will be given. Footprints can also be used as a game once the song has been taught.

I have posted the pictures I’m using. I printed each and cut them out. Then, I pasted them to black cardstock paper and laminated them for durability. If you would like the PDF files please email me and I’ll send them to you.
