Activity Days is a fun group held twice a month for girls ages 8-11 led by the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  The activities build testimonies, strengthen families, and create unity and personal growth.  And guess what?  You don’t have to be LDS to attend!  With November upon us, I thought I’d share some fun Activity Days ideas.  Actually, I have 17 November Activity Days Ideas to share!  Woo!

November Activity Days Ideas

November is the month of gratitude.  This fun FHE (family home evening) lesson about being grateful can easily be turned into a fun Activity Days idea.

Who doesn’t think of pies this month?  I could eat one each day in November.  But instead you could have a pie making (and eating) night.  Here’s 25 pies you can choose from.  Pick a few to learn (and eat) together.  Yum!

Pillowcases are a great beginner sewing project.  Make these cute prayer pillowcases with your activity days girls.  Not only will they learn some new skills but it’s a great reminder for prayer as well!

The girls would have a great time making bread for the sacrament.  Each ingredient matches up to a scripture.  They’ll have some spiritual love while they learn to make bread the good ol’ fashioned way.

How about celebrating each girl by doing this spin-off of “It’s in the Bag” activity.  Each girl brings 3 items to share to show what they’ve been working on in the faith in God areas.  What a neat way to get to know your girls better.
