The lesson “Giving Priority to the Needs and Desires of Others” teaches children about the development of Godly character and how Jesus asks us to serve others and put their needs before our own.

The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 3-5 years, and is the 36th lesson in the 2nd Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “Leadership Preparation” unit.
