  • I would like to do this rotating Leader’s houses for each time a YW has a birthday which moves them to the next class including new Beehives from Primary. Girls can come around 7:00pm (after dinner) with their sleeping bags, etc. or for kidnapping the girls are picked up early Saturday morning and the YW with parents approval is kidnapped by the YW Class to a Leaders house for breakfast, etc. These are GREAT ways for the girls to "bond" with each other and feel welcomed into the new class.
