Explain what a covenant is (see “Covenant,”TTF, 44).
Discuss Mosiah 18:8–13 and the covenants people make at baptism.
Explain that when we are baptized, we covenant to keep all of the Lord’s commandments.

Write the following scriptures on the chalkboard:

• Malachi 3:10 (tithing);
• D&C 59:9–10 (Church attendance);
• Exodus 20:12 (obey parents);
• D&C 89:7–11 (Word of Wisdom);
• John 13:34 (love one another).

Write the commandments found in these scriptures on paper stepping-stones. Tape them in random order to the board. Open a path from the board to the back of the room.
Place a picture of baptism at the beginning of the path and a picture of the Savior at the end of the path. Have the children look up each scripture and match it to a stepping-stone.
Have a child place the corresponding stepping-stone on the path that leads to Jesus Christ. Explain that obeying the commandments brings us closer to Him.

Sing “Keep the Commandments” (CS, 146–47).
