Activity Days - Service

Last week for Activity Days we had a lesson on Service. We had a Rock Star Pedicure Night. We started the night out by have a lesson on the story of Christ washing the feet of his disciples. We talked about why it was an act of service. The girls had to come up with an act of service they would do that week for someone. Then we leaders gave the girls Rock Star pedicures as an act of service to them.
The girls loved it of course. I got the glitter at Michaels for a $1 and the tin pans at the grocery store The flip flops you will notice came from Target in their $1 spot. But they didn't fit the girls, they were too small. Oh, well. I was going to have this at my home with candles, music, treats, etc. But that last time I did a pedicure night at my house with the YW two NEW pieces of furniture got ruined because of the acetone from the fingernail polish remover, so my husband asked that we not do that again.
So, we had it at the church, it isn't as "spa-like" as I had hoped, but I don't think the girls minded at all. And after looking at my saying, I used the word "sweetie" because i had bought some candy for the girls. But I realize I should have put "be a Rock Star And serve someone today"... that would have worked too.
