Let’s be honest about General Conference with kids: It’s not going to be quiet. It’s not going to be smooth the whole time. And it’s definitely not going to look like a picture-perfect weekend. But…
There are moments where your kids really try. They listen a little longer. They catch something. They make an effort. And those moments? They’re worth noticing.
These Dinosaur Reward Bracelets are a simple way to recognize when kids:
listened during a talk
noticed a scripture
heard something about Jesus Christ
helped out
wrote or drew something
Not every minute will look like that. But when it does happen, you’ve got an easy way to reinforce it.
Save it and Share it; pin it now
Kids don’t need constant correction during Conference. They need to know what they’re doing right. When you point out and reward effort:
they start to understand what matters
they repeat those behaviors more often
they feel good about participating
It shifts the tone from: “Sit still. Be quiet.” To: “You’re doing it. Keep going.” It helps them connect Conference with something good
And when kids feel successful, even in small ways, they start to build positive associations.
Not because everything was flawless but because they:
noticed something meaningful
felt seen for trying
had a small win
Over time, that’s what turns Conference into something they want to do, not something they dread.
Simple for You, Meaningful for Them
You don’t need a big system.
These are:
Free printables
quick to cut out
easy to hand out in the moment
No prep-heavy plan. No pressure to “do it all right.” Just something ready when you notice a good moment.
Want to Add One More Layer?
If your kids like having something to follow along with, pair these with Dino Goes to General Conference: An Activity Story. It gives them something to follow along with and something to help them sit still longer.
The Goal? Not silence. Not a flawless weekend. Just more moments where they try, notice, and engage.
Because those small moments of effort? That’s where it all starts.
P.S. if you are involving teens in addition to the smaller ones, you’ll want to cut the bracelets the full width of the paper instead. Teens can set a great example for the younger ones.
