Super Heroes

For Family Home Evening yesterday we did a special Valentines lesson. After school I had the kids decorate a pillowcase with hearts and another picture for "a cape" then we colored masks.

We started by reading Scripture: John 13: 34-35 (about loving one another) Then for the lesson we watched a clip of the Incredibles and then we talked about how we could be a Super Family too with Super Powers if we showed the "Power of Love" for each other. That when you love someone you spend time with them, you help them, you are kind to them, you are nice to them etc.

We then gave examples and asked the kids what super power they could use

examples:
If mom is doing dishes: The Power of Helping
If Dad reads with you: The Power of Reading
If Olivia helps Garrett when he is sick: The Power of Caring
If Garrett says something nice to his sister: The Power of Kindness


Then they got to run around with their capes and masks on. At one point we turned off the lights and turned on the lasers which made it more fun. It was a fun Family Home Evening. Then for the treat we had chocolate covered strawberries.
