Day 3: Baby Moses... Moses and the Burning Bush
We learned how the Israelites cried out to the Lord for help during a time of great oppression. The Lord raised up a helper for them in Moses. God had plans for Moses from little on.
God had plans for your little ones before they were born. With so many professionals out there for every kind of need, sometimes we forget that we can call on him. Help your child remember where our help truly comes from, “the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.” If our gracious God created the entire universe simply by speaking, he is certainly powerful enough to help us in every need and to use us to help others, too.
One of the greatest ways you can strengthen your children is by giving them a strong foundation in God’s Word. Share with them the truth of how God has helped them so much already. Not only does he take care of their daily needs through parents like you, but he has also given them Jesus to be their Savior from sin.
These are some of the activities we enjoyed on Day 3!
Art
The youngest and middle kids made Baby Moses pictures, and the older kids made burning bushes out of paper bags. These projects reminded us of how God protected Moses and guided him to help the Israelites.
Games
We enjoyed the relay race “Baby Moses in a Basket” and other games like “Alligators in the Nile River.” The youngest kids also had fun with water play.
Science
The kids first watched a short video clip from Prince of Egypt and then went out under the canopy. The youngest and middle kids played “Sink and Float” with various objects. The older kids made foil baskets and then raced them on the “Nile River” by blowing through straws.
