LDS Quiet Book Patterns - Pioneer Children Sang as They Walked
Pioneer Day is just around the corner and I was super excited to create an LDS quiet book pattern with a pioneer theme to help my kids learn a little bit about the church history.
As I was brainstorming what to put on the page, I thought of the song Pioneer Children Sang as they Walked from the LDS Children's song book page #214. I knew that the page had to have a handcart, "walking" children, and something to show that "they washed at streams" and "camped". At this point I got really excited about all these ideas and started creating the page in no time.
What I was most excited about was the thought of using this as an activity for my kids while we sing the song. Not only would this be a fun quiet time activity for the kids, but this would also be great for FHE, nursery lesson, or even singing time in primary.
Here's how the final pages turned out.

So many activities are highlighted in this one pattern, including, velcro activities, pulling the handcart, finger puppets, camping, and cooking. It is definitely worth the price of the pattern.

Help Build the Provo City Center Temple
We've lived in Provo for a few years now, and like many other Provo residents, the Provo Tabernacle held a special place in our hearts. We've been to stake conferences and concerts there over the years. Of course the news that the tabernacle was burned down was surprising for us as well.
So, when the announcement was made to turn it into a temple, we, like many others, were so excited. And since I've been on a quiet book making roll, I knew that I wanted to make one about the new temple.
The concept I had was to "build" the quiet book temple just like the church was actually building the temple in person.
It is a pretty simple page compared to many of my other quiet book pages, but my boys absolutely LOVED it. My oldest even started figuring out which puzzle piece goes where, which I thought was super exciting. For my 1 year old it is like a never ending fun-filled page of putting the pieces on and off (and into the mouth), repeated over and over....hahaha.
