Modesty Mutual

Last Wednesday the Mia Maids were in charge of the Mutual activity. Or, because Sister Jordan hasn't had a proper Presidency meeting yet, SHE was in charge. I've gotten used to teaching lessons and am gradually improving at it, but doing the entire hour and half Mutual was a bit more daunting. It felt like the first day of school all over again, I was that nervous about it. (No nicely laid out manual with this; do you know how long an hour and half is?)

So in conjunction with the return of the school year, we did one on Modesty. I found a few activity ideas via Google (thank you, thank you, thank you!) and rolled them all into one night event. We had a little talk, a demonstration of some clothing with problems and how to fix them, went over the standards expected, taught them the head-shoulder-knees-and-toes test and then we did the main event —

making our own modest dresses out of tissue paper :)

And may I say - It was a BLAST! Such creativity. Amazing what some tape, tissue paper, sparklies, and glue can do when combined with talented and enthusiastic girls for an evening. I consider it a success because they even forgot to ask for a treat at the end.

So, what fun/spiritual/awesome Mutual activities do you remember doing in Young Womens?
