My May 2020 singing time plans include teaching the song I Will Be Valiant. I was browsing through the May 2020 Friend online and found a simple way to implement this song that follows closely with next week’s Come Follow Me topic as well!
I absolutely LOVE the various family night activities in the Friend that coincide with Come Follow Me! And I even love it more that I can double it up as my home centered singing time lesson plan for this Sunday!!

Sing-Along Video
To cater this lesson plan to be more home centered, I suggest watching and singing along to the the sing-along video here:
Then the lesson then suggests to:
print or draw some road signs that help you stay safe like stop signs, speed limits, and other warnings.
Road Signs
I’ve got some road signs here that I created for a previous singing time activity (bonus points if you can tell me which one – haha). I just slightly altered them to cater to this activity:
You can access my printables at my Resource Library. Instructions for accessing my Resource Library are found at the bottom of this post.
Print and cut them out prior to starting your lesson.
If you notice, I added a musical twist! The road signs have musical terms on them so whatever sign is held up, that is how you sing the song (use the key found on each page to help!).
The rest of the activity suggests to:
Take turns holding up the signs and having people follow them in pretend cars! What would driving be like without those signs?
You can also ask what singing would be like without the musical signs!
Repeat with various signs, while singing the song multiple times. Use the sing-along video as needed.
Get Creative (optional)!
If you really want to get creative, cut out and design some steering wheels from cheap paper plates! And REALLY REALLY creative would be to make some cardboard box cars (I have a limit and my family definitely WON’T go that far!).
The lesson idea from the Friend continues on talking about Abinadi. He taught about the 10 commandments. You can discuss how keeping the commandments keeps us safe and happy.

Hi Camille,
I have tried to access your library, but have had a lot of problems getting into it. Please help!
Thanks,
Julene
Hi Julene!
I’ve emailed you the links. Hopefully you get it. It appears your email provider is considering my emails spam. If you have a gmail email, will you try using that one instead? Sorry for the hassle!
