The Case of the MISSING CLUES!



Inside this mystery case, are clues which are part of the songs the Primary children are learning!


  • I pass out maracas or other "shakers" to most of the children
  • One child is chosen to be the "Detective"
  • I show the clue card to Jr. kids - and describe the clue to Sr. kids
  • The chosen "Detective," puts on the "Detective Hat" and carries the magnifying glass out to the hallway with a teacher or presidency member
  • Then the children in the Primary room help me choose a good spot to hide the clue
  • The "Detective" comes back into the room
  • The children in the room shake the shakers (louder or softer) the closer or further away the detective gets to the clue (warmer-colder)
OK....time for the RULES:


  • No shouting or talking!
  • Once the clue is found, we sing the song!
  • The child who had a turn with the shakers, shares with another, who hasn't had a turn
