Testimony Eggs FHE

We did this last night and thought I would share since it's a fun FHE to do during Easter time with eggs.  I put it together years ago when I was in a FHE group that would make lessons for each other.  I had seen the eggs done in a Sharing Time and just combined it into a lesson from what I could remember from the Sharing Time -
Testimony
The object lesson is done by taking three eggs - a normal one, hard-boiled one, and then an empty one.  You can draw faces and dress up each one.  Then you talk about them.  Eggna (empty egg) never goes to church, she seldom prays.....  Eggatha (hard-boiled) used to go to church but now sleeps in, she is too busy for... Eggbert (normal egg) he goes to church and tries really hard to listen and learn, he prays and keeps the commandments...

Then you open the eggs to see what is inside.  Eggna is empty because she didn't put anything inside of her, she has nothing inside....  Eggatha had the principles inside her to build a testimony but stopped doing them and turned hard inside...Eggbert is usable.  He is in a natural state and can be used in any number of recipes.  The Lord can use you for good because you have a healthy and strong testimony....

Kaylee said, "The yolk is like the light within us..."  I love that girl!

Anyway, we then talked about how to build a testimony and how you can have a testimony of so many different aspects of the gospel.  Stephen then challenged the kids to share their testimonies on the next fast Sunday.  It was a fun lesson!

I just want to thank you for all your wonderful posts! You always make me want to be a better mother. So many great ways that you create fun, magic, and happiness in your family life.

If you ever get a chance, would you post some of your tips for maintaining a busy family with school, sports, church, art projects, etc. and what you do to daily stay on top of it? How do you accomplish so much while having a family busy schedule? When do you plan for the week? I am always so impressed with how much you actually accomplish.

Please tell some of your strategy secrets :) Thanks!
