Pioneers

Pioneer Day is coming up! 
Here are some of the activities I did last year with my kiddos that were EASY and a BIG hit.
My JR loved changing the words to 'Fun To Do'. I had someone pick a card and then we sang the new words and made up an action to go with it. Along the way I would tell them about the pioneer children and the tasks they had to do. I also had a bonnet and apron for the girls and a hat and scarf for the boys to wear. I choose good singer to wear the stuff while we sang.
If you'd like to download the cards and directions click below.

I did a matching with my SR. Each match has a pioneer story or fact with a related scripture and song.

I hope someone finds these useful.

Happy Pioneer Day!

  2. Sheree, I love your blog so much! It's fabulous! I did a similar activity to the Fun to Do cards. We sang Do as I'm Doing though, and the kids had to guess what pioneer action we were doing. On your awesome matching game, there is a small typo on the Camp Fires card. It says fed instead of feed. Not a big deal, but just letting you know. Thanks again!!
