I don’t know what book you’re using but as a fellow neighborhood children’s class teacher I recommend Baha’i Crafts for Children-excellent book for ideas and ways to revise them.

I don’t know how many years the kids have been in the classes but just getting the lessons from Books 3 and 5 makes it so much easier then writing out lesson plans-it doesn’t save anytime with figuring out the crafts though.

Good luck.

some symbol related to the name of each Baha’i month or the significant Holy Day in the month
to place in each square each month.. or a notebook with a page with a quote to take home for each month…
or… include a short prayer on the
Naw-ruz tags.. they can wear them on the cord like a necklace… and
then invite someone to share the prayer with them and the new person can keep the prayer tag…
children can decorate the tags…
to truly make the new first month
one of the splendour of the Light of the Beloved… through the light of the children’s efforts to ‘scatter abroad the fragrances of the words uttered…’
