Sing through I Love to See the Temple (flipchart here) once before introducing the activity.

Have 1-4 helpers come up and pick a shape to create using playdoh or kinetic sand. Let them work on shaping their dough and forming the shape while the rest of the Primary sings the song again.

I absolutely love using Kinetic Sand as it’s much less messy than playdoh! It doesn’t dry out and get hard which makes it much easier to vacuum up, if needed, and the kids LOVE stretching it! I also think it shapes better than you might expect.

Take turns having helpers come up to craft one of the 4 shapes.

5 More Fun Ways to Use the I Love to See the Temple Playdoh Mats

1. Actions – Add hand actions for these 4 shapes to involve the rest of the kids.

  • Love – Form a heart using your two hands – thumbs together and fingertips together.
  • Temple – Create a temple by interlocking fingers except your two pointer fingers.
  • Going There – Point the direction of the temple! Check your orientation before singing time so you know the direction.
  • Listen – Cup your hand behind one ear.

2. Simple Question – Ask the children these 4 simple questions, one after each time through the song:

  • What do you LOVE about the temple?
  • Do you have a favorite TEMPLE?
  • When are you GOING to the Temple next? 
  • What’s one way we can LISTEN to the Holy Ghost?

3. Show and Tell – Depending on the dough you supply, you can have the kids hold up their designs to show the Primary.

4. Stencils – Use the cards as a tracing stencil instead and have the kids trace the shapes and then color them in!

5. Card Swap – Arrange the cards in a silly order on the board. Have the kids help you get them in the CORRECT order by swapping any 2 cards after each time through the song. When they’re all in the right order, then start the playdoh crafting.
