We're studying the Old Testament this year for homeschool, and we recently took a week and a half to focus on each of the Ten Commandments. The kids did acrostic poems, except for Owen who wrote a song to the tune of Yankee Doodle. It is pretty awesome, so I am introducing it here!
1) Number one is honoring and loving Heav'nly Father,
Having life without Him would make life a lazy bother.
2) Never having idols is commandment number two,
Worshipping a book or game is what you should not do!
3) Three is using your own words to be an honest Saint,
Swearing, cursing, lying are all ways for Mom to faint.
4) Sunday is the day of worship, that's rule number four,
Reading Sunday books is good; not going to the store.
5) Five is loving Mom and Dad, and not complaining at all,
6) Six is killing nobody cause if you do you'll fall.
7) Honoring your marriage is commandment number seven,
Hearts and flowers, rings and kisses get you all to heaven.
8) Stealing is a thing to do when going to a jail,
Eight is going to the store and buying things on sale!
9) Nine is that you should not say things that are not so true,
That is saying that your shoes are old when they are new.
10) Last of all there's number ten, (it says you should not covet),
If you want a happy life obey these rules and love it!
