This Little Piggy


Love the cute clipart from ldslane.net! Thanks for sharing it!

For our Relief Society Activity we are having a Little Piggy theme.
The little poem is the introduction between each topic.

This little Piggy went to Market
To save on her bill.
She found it smarter then fast food
For buying her fill.

Went to market: Price is right game. I will give teams numbers that equal the price a fast food item and home cooked item, like a home made burrito and a burrito from Del Taco. The teams will guess the price and the winning side will get a point. We will do a couple rounds then the winners get a piggy prize. The point is it is most often cheaper to eat at home.

This little Piggy stayed home
She did not run about
She lived within her means.
She wasn't troubled with doubt.

Stayed home: Spiritual thought. being happy with what we are blessed with and not over spending.

This little Piggy had roast beef.
She had prepared it ahead,
So when life got busy
She didn't feel dread.

Roast Beef: Freezer meals. We will have a demo of the teacher preparing a freezer meal. She will have some there for everyone to try. We will also give a freezer meal recipe handout. We spend less on fast food if we prepare ahead.

This little Piggy had none
But she had planned for that day
So she had what she needed
When life looked a bit grey.

Had none: This would be emergency preparation. We are focusing on food for our 72 hour kits.

Thank you for coming
We're happy you roam
To our RS activities
Now wee,wee, wee all the way home.
