Primary Activity

We had our quarterly Primary activity a couple weeks ago. The kids were put in groups and learned different scriptures stories with a fun activity - sailboat race was Nephi's family sailing to the promised land, tug-a-war was holding to the iron rod, digging in sand to bury weapons and covenant not to fight anymore, etc. After the groups had finished at all the stations, they got to throw water balloons at Samuel the Lamanite (a.k.a. Marcos). They earned one balloon for each article of faith they passed off and some had 13 balloons. The water balloons started off okay, but there was no line for them to stand on so some of the 10 and 11 year olds were about 3 feet away just pelting Marcos - and then they started to go behind him and throw them pretty hard. By the end, he was so done. Overall, it was a great activity though and Marcos was a good sport to help out. Here are a couple pictures of Dylan at the activity. He did awesome at the tug-a-war. He and another boy in our ward were pretty much pulling four kids over every time. Pretty funny. I'm thinking Dylan and this little boy should play rec sports together. They'd dominate the field for sure! :)
