For my "Divine Nature" 10-hour Value Project, I got the idea to make cupcakes for each of the girl's birthdays (and bring them to the Mutual closest to their birthday). I plan the cupcakes based on the girls favorite color, flavors, candies, interests, etc. I spent about 2-4 hours on each birthday, depending on the amount of cupcakes I would have to make (when the Mutual when fall on a combined YM/YW activity date, I would make cupcakes for everyone instead of just the YW)
Here are some of the examples of cupcakes that I've done:
 |
| Harry Potter "Snitch" cupcakes |
 |
| "Heath Bar cupcakes" with caramel frosting and chocolate ganache |
 |
| Mini candy cupcakes on top of regular cupcakes |
Other things involved in this project are:
- Making a list of young womens' birthdays (and keeping track of what birthdays are next)
- Making Gluten-free cupcakes (for gluten-free kids in the ward, if applicable)
My 12 year old daughter and her friend came to me one day and asked if they could publish a website to teach people about being LDS and use it as a value project. The site is LOL 4 LDS – lessons of life for LDS http://lol.worldxn.net/introduction/
ReplyDeleteThey have done a wonderful job! I am trying to help get the word out. I was hoping that you would take a look at it and possibly add a link to your page. We would be happy to put a link on her page to your site if that is okay with you. Thank you in advance.
