TO MAKE VISUALS: Print, color (or print in color) and cut out the images that follow. Laminate images. Have double-stick tape or magnets ready to post images on a poster or the board.

ACTIVITY:
Tell children/youth, “Heavenly Father sent us to this earth with a testimony of His plan and of the gospel of Jesus Christ, but when we came, a veil was placed over our minds so we could not remember our life with them. This way we would have to learn to live by faith. When we hear the truth, the Holy Ghost will let us know. We will feel a warm feeling in our heart, and our mind will know that they are true. When we read the scriptures or hear others bear their testimony, we can know that what they say is true, especially if we pray for the Spirit to be with us.”

Ask children/youth, “Have any of your friends asked you about your church, about what you believe in?” Point to the sign and say, “Let’s have I ‘Bee’-lieve Sweet Testimony Sharing time. Come up and grab a bee and place it on the picture for which you wish to bear your testimony. Then buzz your sweet testimony so we can hear. This will help you practice for when you bear, or buzz, your testimony to your family and friends or in testimony meeting.

Thought Treats for lesson activitiesTHOUGHT TREAT: “Bee”-lieve Taffy. Make Honey Taffy by boiling 1 pint of honey 5  – 8 minutes (checking soft-ball stage by placing water in a cup and dropping some boiling honey into the cup – to see if it forms a soft – firm ball). Pour onto a buttered cookie sheet and stir with a spatula, adding 1/4 – 1/2 cup butter (a must) so taffy doesn’t get hard. Then when cool enough to pick up form into long strips onto waxed paper and cool 5 minutes then cut into pieces.
THOUGHT: Tell children/youth that bees work very hard to make honey. We too much work hard to build a “Bee”-lieving testimony. We can do this by buzzing over to reading the scriptures and living the gospel and praying about what we have learned in Primary/Youth activities, and in a family home evening. With a testimony, we can spread the sweetness of the gospel to others by bearing our testimony, serving a mission, and teaching our family and friends the gospel. We must learn to have faith in Jesus Christ and His gospel and share it with others.
