How do we know the way to return to our Heavenly Father?

Lay out the path on the floor with pictures of your kids at one end and the Savior at the other. Read through the 4^th Article of Faith. When your kids hear the words faith, repentance, baptism, and the Gift of the Holy Ghost, have them place them on the path.
