The Church has announced a new manual for Primary nursery classes titled Behold Your Little Ones. In addition, this manual has been designed to be a great resource to help parents teach basic gospel doctrines to small children.
Each lesson contains activities that help children HEAR, SEE, SING, DO a physical activity, and VERBALIZE the doctrine of the lesson. Each lesson has two pages of visuals (a color picture and a line drawing) to visually reinforce the principles taught. Each page also has tips on how to teach the lesson successfully. Read pages 2-4 of the manual for more details about the features of the manual.

I’ve also posted this using the feedback link, but so that you are aware it seems that all the links to the PDFs have the file names misspelled using Nursury instead of the correct Nursery.
When I changed the link to http://www.lds.org/languages/childrenmaterials/nursery/Nursery_Teacher__00__CompleteManual_00_eng_.pdf I was able to download the complete file OK
Also for those downloading the file which says complete, is ONLY the lessons, that file doesn’t contain the images for copying or the pictures. Will you provide a complete picture and complete images for copying file as well?
As it was, I copied these each individually. As a Resource Center Librarian I can see providing the Nursery Teacher with a CD which contains all the files would be a handy way for them to print copies of the cut outs at home, or take to copy shop — most of the handouts work best using index stock and not the standard bond paper most meetinghouse libraries have in stock.
I am seeing to it that we will have some of the index weight paper available for the nursery copies to be made at the building.
Thanks for these comments. We’ll get these fixed right away.
