As with lots of things around the house, my church magazines were starting to pile up and I feel guilty just tossing them. So for an activity, the kids and I cut out pictures to make a church book. We slid the pictures into a little photo album. They love to look through them and recount the stories that we've read or point out pictures of the prophet, Jesus, and scripture stories.
To make things easier and more kid friendly, I just made a 4 X 6 template out of chipboard so they could see if the picture would fit. They could trace around it and I squared things up with my paper cutter.

I have one of these that I made way back when I was in nursery and we sat with Anna and little Ava while the husbands were on the stand. It still comes in handy to pass off to restless kids at church. Though I need to update all my pictures of the First Presidency since they are all of Pres. Hinckley, Faust and Monson! I didn't have access to the Friend, so yours are probably a bit more entertaining!
