This link will take you to the Friend Magazine website. On it there are stories from present and past issues that you can download and save onto a CD from your computer. For Christmas this year, I removed the stories from past Friend issues and put them into protective sleeves and created a read along book for each of my children. On the CD are the stories they can read along to and also some music too. For my older son, I made a giant comic book of the comic stories included each month too. They are stories from the lives of the prophets. He loves comics and now he has all of the stories together. The comics aren't read aloud so I included in his book a collection of songs from the site. I also included the activities from the Friend too so they have something else in there too. A white board marker works on the plastic sleeve for any drawing or writing activities so they can do it over and over again.
This project can be as elaborate or simple as you like.
