Games
Construct a 4 square x 4 square game board using posterboard or a blackboard and sheets of paper. The board will have three layers. The top layer will be blank. On the edge of the board, label the rows using numbers and the columns using letters so that each square will have a unique coordinate identification. On the second layer are the items which need to be paired up. Each item is covered by one sheet of paper. The third layer contains a picture puzzle.
Write each of the following items on a sheet of paper:
The Atonement Joseph Smith, Jr.
Man's Purpose
Exaltation
Resurrection
Veil
Priesthood
The Temple
A place where sacred ordinances are performed
The way to reunite a perfect father with imperfect children 1st prophet of the last dispensation
To Have Joy
Living With God; Living Like God
Reuniting of the body and the spirit
Why we can't remember our pre-earth life
The power and authority of God
These are the answers:
The Atonement = The way to reunite a perfect father with imperfect children
Joseph Smith, Jr. = 1st prophet of the last dispensation
Man's Purpose = To Have Joy
Exaltation = Living With God; Living Like God
Resurrection = Reuniting of the body and the spirit
Veil = Why we can't remember our pre-earth life
Priesthood = The power and authority of God
The Temple = A place where sacred ordinances are performed
Here is the picture puzzle:

Here is the answer:
I lived in Heaven before I was born
To play Concentration:
Divide the group into two teams. The first team picks two squares. If the second layers match, remove both the blank cover square and the matching items and give them to that team. This will reveal a portion of the picture puzzle. If they do not, cover the items back up and let the other team pick two squares. Repeat the process until the puzzle on the bottom layer is solved. For each pair a team collects, give 10 points. Give the team which solved the puzzle 50 points.
