LDS Primary Singing Time Idea - Temple Windows

Preparation: Take a large picture of the Salt Lake Temple (or other temple with lots of windows) and cutout three sides of each window, leaving the fourth side as a hinge so you can open and close the windows. Place pictures of each of your primary children in the temple windows.

Directions: Instruct the children that the best singer will get to open one of the Temple windows to see what is behind it. The picture that shows behind the window is than the child that picks the next song to sing.

Note: To make the picture last longer you can laminate it, but do this before cutting out the windows. Also, if you don't have pictures (or the ability to acquire them) of the children you can place a piece of paper/cardstock to the back of the temple and write the children's names there instead.

Optional Clipart: Temples (Scroll down to where it says Temples, Latter-day) You could also use small clipart pictures of a temple and make a card for each child, paste their photo (or write their name) on the back of each temple picture. Then you could either keep the temple cards for future singing times or give them to the children to take home.
