FHE: Tower of Babel

Yesterday, we had a fun Family Home Evening. I taught a lesson on following Heavenly Father's commandments. It is important to do so to return to live with Him again. I told the story about the people building a tower to get to heaven, and how that was not choosing the right. The story was complete with mom drawing stick people and a tower on a large construction document. Then we discussed ways we can follow Heavenly Father's commandments. It was a good, short lesson.

Then, to have a little fun, we decided to build an edible "tower of Babel". Obviously, we didn't want to reach heaven, but it was fun to see how high we could "climb".
5 cake bricks later, the tower fell.




It may have come tumbling down, but it still tasted pretty good.

It was a lot of fun. I can't wait for next Monday.

You have the most creative ideas. I say this all the time, but I seriously need to start taking notes and copying what you do!
