Thanksgiving Crafts

Our Fall Leaves. It's Super Frog's hand and forearm makes the trunk. We painted leaves and pressed them on.

Aunt J. came over and made this fun turkey for Frog which spurred him on to do one with Daddy's picture. That's a toilet roll Turkey. The Feathers are leaf shaped. I couldn't get Frog to get his hands dirty again. He said it's because he

doesn't like to clean them...:)

The Ten Commandments

This is an old post from last year from a family blog I keep. I want it on this blog so I can readily see what wording we used for the Ten Commandments.
I had trouble finding a kid friendly version that I liked. I adapted different versions of the commandments together to form one with language I thought Frog would understand. I also tried to stay away from the same phrasing over and over (do not, do not...I thought using different words would be less confusing). At the same time I want Frog to have certain words in his "bank" that I know he won't understand till much later.
1. You shall have no other gods before me.
2. We only worship God. No idols!
3. Be careful with God's name. Don't misuse it.
4. Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
5. Honor your father and your mother.
6. Do not kill.
7. Keep your marriage promises. No adultery.
8. Do not steal.
9. Do not lie or give false testimony.
10. Do not covet.
