Family History I Am Doing It Grandma’s House

Do you have any memories that stand out to you of time spent with any of your ancestors? For me, it’s definitely my paternal grandparents. We lived just a few miles from them and spent so much time with my grandparents! I have fond memories of baking cookies every Christmas. I’ve even shared my grandma’s super soft sugar cookies recipe before because they are seriously the best cookies ever!

I also remember my grandpa’s bear stories from his time working up in wild Alaska building bridges and all the hard work we would help my grandparents with, like hauling and splitting logs for their fireplace.

This activity is all about our ancestors with a fun themed activity like a mini trip to Grandma’s house! It’s a great way to review or teach Family History-I Am Doing It song (archives) this year as part of the D&C Primary Songs list!
