Its your turn. Okay, Dad says. Lets pop some corn and watch Monday night football. It can be an activity night! If this sounds all to familiar perhaps your family needs a large dose of careful planning and preparation for Family Home Evening. According to several Layton women, that planning can not only be fun, but Monday night can be the best night of the week.

Each woman collects a host of ideas and aids to help her family have successful teaching experiences at home. At the monthly meeting each woman choses a theme she will work on the for the coming month. It may be a religious theme such as baptism, faith or chastity, or it can deal with a social issue like drug abuse, safety, or helping in the community. Principles such as honesty, love, service, and kindness have all been used in the past months. She then goes home with the theme and begins her plans. She chooses a lesson plan and outlines it. She will find stories related to the theme, and songs that the family can sing to go do-ahe- ad things. Mrs. Probert said the visual aids are invaluable to the lessons. Children love to have the extra touches to the lessons and the visual aids hold their attention during the lessons, she said.
