Big Cookie!!

The primary presidency in our ward held out a carrot (well, a cookie) for the kids to read the Book of Mormon with their families in the year 2009. We worked our way methodically through the book about one chapter a night just telling the stories in words the kids can understand. We finished just two weeks ago. When the primary said big cookie, they weren't kidding!!

And if you think that was a cheap way to go through the Book of Mormon, I have two challenges for you. First, you try getting your 3 and 5 year-old to sit through a verbatim reading of the book. Second, ask Daniel the next time you see him who Nephi's favorite Old Testament prophet is or as Megan how Abinidi died. It was a lot of fun.
