The following comes from LDS365.Ā
Wards should be holding meetings with members before the end of the year to introduce to them the newĀ Sunday schedule and the newĀ Come, Follow MeĀ resources for individuals and families, SundayĀ School, and Primary.
During this meeting, leaders should emphasize how the changes announced at October general conference can help members make their gospel learning more home centered and Church supported. A guide for these meetings is found in theĀ Implementation Guide for StakeĀ Presidencies and BishopricsĀ available atĀ ComeFollowMe.lds.orgĀ and in the Gospel Library app.Ā AĀ printable PDF of the guideĀ is also available.
In that meeting, members should be given a copy of theĀ Handout for Individuals, Families, and Teachers.Ā Copies of that handout were shipped to each ward and branch with theĀ Come, Follow MeāFor Individuals and FamiliesĀ manuals. The handout is alsoĀ found atĀ ComeFollowMe.lds.orgĀ and in the Gospel Library app. AĀ PDF of the handoutĀ is also available to make more copies or to email to members.
The videos to be used in the meetings are available atĀ ComeFollowMe.lds.orgĀ and can be downloaded from that page by clicking the 3 dots in the bottom right corner of each video. (Using the Safari browser, right-click the video to see the download option.) The videos are also embedded below for your convenience.

To add to your thoughts. It would nice if LDS tools would add open dyslexic to the font style. My daughter has dyslexia and it would be great if she could use LDS tools for reading church materials. Times New Roman is very difficult for her to read. As many as 1 in 5 people have dyslexia and the open dyslexic font is public domain.

I picked up my manual a couple of weeks ago. When I got home and looked at it, I almost started to cry, because I couldn't read it. It is printed in a very fine-line sans-serif font that many people with vision problems will have trouble reading. I will be returning my manual as it won't do me any good. Fortunately, the online version is in Times New Roman, which I can read. Note to the people who design such manuals: Please consider that everyone does not have perfect eyesight. A font might look pretty, but if it isn't readable to all, its prettiness is irrelevant. Weightier fonts with serifs are much easier to read. And you might consider a large-print edition next year as well.
