Children of the Word Expectations
- Children will recite memorized scriptures before a panel. They are to identify where the scripture is found and recite the scripture.
- Parents must list scriptures when they submit online registration and bring a copy of the scriptures their child will recite from memory to the recital.
Parental Tips:
- Keep it age appropriate.
- Make it part of your daily routine; tie memorization to something consistent like bedtime, breakfast, or car rides.
- Use music and rhythm! Create a song together of scriptures and add movement.
- Explain the scriptures and ask them, "What does this mean to you?"
- Turn it into a game! Fill-in-the-blanks reward quizzes. Say it faster/slower.
- Practice every day! Celebrate progress, not perfection.
- Have fun!
