Cassie originally shared her idea on the PML Facebook group and I LOVED it! My variation slightly simplifies it.
Matching Bottles
For this activity, you need:
- An even amount of water bottles, 2 for each song to review (remove any labels)
- Food coloring to dye two bottles the same color.
- A box cut in half to act as a barrier. Cassie shared her pictures:

Bottle Matching Singing Time Review
Before Primary, place one set of bottles underneath the barrier so they are not visible and in random order. Place the other set of bottles along the front of the table so they are visible and also in random order. Make sure the bottles are not in matching positions.
Choose a song to review and post the words using this flip chart format as needed.
As you are singing, choose a good singer to attempt to line up a visible bottle with a hidden bottle by placing a visible bottle on the top of the box in the same position as a hidden bottle.
You or another leader stand behind the table to determine when a match is made. If a match is made, the bottle remains on the top. If a match is not made, the bottle returns to its spot on the table and a new child is selected to attempt to make a match until an eventual match is made.
Repeat until all the bottles are matched and the song sung as many times as needed to complete matching the bottles.
Once all bottles are matched, return bottles on the top to the front so they are visible. Switch the order of the non-visible bottles. Select a new song to sing and repeat until all songs to review are sung and children have had several turns to make a match.
Bear Testimony
Bear testimony that just as pairs come together, we can draw closer to the Savior as we learn and sing about Him.
