Since I am the Activity Days Leader in my ward I thought that I would start posting what we do for our activities so that maybe others could benefit from what we have done.
Wednesday was an activity focused on modesty.
We started with a runway fashion show. Each girl was asked to come wearing a modest outfit to model for the group. We strung Christmas lights, the big size, on the floor in a large rectangle pattern and then set chairs around it. Each girl walked the runway and then told us why her outfit was modest.
Next, I had cut out tons of pictures of different clothing out of magazines (some I printed off the computer from children's clothing websites). I tried to find movie stars that the girls were interested in (i.e. Miley Sirus, Demi Lovato, Vanessa Hudgens). Each girl was given a bunch of pictures and then got to place them on the chalkboard under the correct symbol, "modest" or "immodest". We talked about how to make an immodest outfit modest by pairing it with a sweater or a shirt under it.
After that we had a relay race. The girls were split up into 2 groups. The first girl in line had to run down to a pile of oversize clothes put them on and answer a question about modesty and then run back to the next girl in line who would put the clothes on and run down to answer a question. The girls were squealing a laughing over this!
Lastly, I made sugar cookies with the letter "M" piped on in green frosting.
I would post more pictures of the activity but I don't want to do it without their parent's permission. But the girls had fun and hopefully learned about how to be modest.
