The Exodus – Little People Style!

The other day we watched The Prince of Egypt

So that took us to the Israelites crossing the Red Sea

 

Today we finished acting out the Exodus to the Ten Commandments

I thought it would be cute to take pictures of the girls. They had fun of course – score one for Mommy for thinking of using their favorite toy – Little People!

Israelites getting ready to cross the Red Sea – see Karis’ face, she was the Pharaoh telling the Israelites that she was going to catch them and kill them!

Moses parted the Red Sea with his staff and the people started crossing

At the oasis of Marah where the water was bitter the people were complaining.  So Moses threw a piece of wood in the water (that would be the pencil – Sierra’s idea – lol) to make it drinkable

In the wilderness with no food and complaining (again? Sierra asked) and the Lord sent manna (bread) and quail for food

At Rephidim, where there was no water, and surprise surprise, they were complaining!! So God let water flow from a rock.

And then Moses went up on the mountain and brought down the Ten Commandments, we wrote them out for the girls to study.

Next week – the Tabernacle – I’m a little intimidated, we will be building one from a design in the curriculum – wish us luck!

You are so creative. I wish I could think of teaching them like that!
