MINI-LESSON:

Attention Getter:

1. Sing this song to the tune of "If you're happy and you know it" (CS. 266)
   
   I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ (say: yes I do! and throw your hands in the air)
   I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ (say: yes I do! and throw your hands in the air)
   I'll choose what is right and follow His light
   I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ (say: yes I do! and throw your hands in the air)
   
   To show I choose the right I tell the truth (pat lips and turn around)
   To show I choose the right I tell the truth (pat lips and turn around)
   I know the Savior's way and it shows in what I say,
   To show I choose the right, I tell the truth (pat lips and turn around)
   
   To show I choose the right I will be kind (turn to your neighbor and ask "how are you?" with a smile)
   To show I choose the right I will be kind (turn to your neighbor and ask "how are you?" with a smile)
   I know the Savior's way and it shows in what I say,
   To show I choose the right, I will be kind (turn to your neighbor and ask "how are you?" with a smile)
   
   To show I choose the right I say my prayers (put hands together like praying and bow your head)
   To show I choose the right I say my prayers (put hands together like praying bow your head)
   I know the Savior's way and it shows in what I say,
   To show I choose the right I say my prayers (put hands together like praying bow your head)
   
   To show I choose the right I read my scriptures (pretend you are holding your scriptures open in your hands and move your head back and forth as reading them)
   To show I choose the right I read my scriptures (pretend you are holding your scriptures open in your hands and move your head back and forth as reading them)
   I know the Savior's way and it shows in what I say,

   I'll choose what is right and follow His light
   I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ (say: yes I do! and throw your hands in the air)
   
   
   
2. Talk with them about the things that we sang in this song. They are some of the things that we should be doing as members of the church.
   
   Talk about each one of them for a minute.
   
   
3. Ask them if they have ever been dared to do something? You may choose to read them the letter in "The Friend" about choosing the right.
