Quick Links: Printable Lesson Plan | Printable Worksheet & Coloring Page

Hey, parents!

We wanted to offer a few directions as you navigate leading your preschooler through today’s lesson and activities. Below you will find our Bible passage for the day, a lesson plan for the day, and several other tips that can help you and your child as you study and worship this morning.

Here are the materials you will need for our lesson today:

  • Coloring Supplies

  • Paper

  • Tape

  • Play Dough

  • Rolling Pins

  • Animal-Shaped Cookie Cutters

1. Read the Bible Passage | EXODUS 5-12

2. Ask the Big Picture Question:

Is there anything God cannot do?

3. Watch the Bible Story

4. Review the Key Verse

Hosea 13:4b, “You know no God but me, and besides me there is no savior.”

5. Answer the Big Picture Question

God can do all things.

6. Pray together

7. Do one or both of the Activities

Activity #1: Play a Yes or No Game

Directions 

Write the words YES and NO on two sheets of paper and tape them to opposite walls. Ask questions whose answers are either yes or no, and guide your kids to walk toward the appropriate sign. Questions might include, “Are you four years old? Do your shoes have laces? Do you like to eat spaghetti? Have you ever been fishing? Is there anything God cannot do?” (Your children should move to the NO sign and answer the big picture question.)

Say 

God chose Moses and his brother Aaron to talk to Pharaoh. They asked Pharaoh to let the Israelites leave Egypt. Pharaoh’s answer was no, so God sent plagues to punish Egypt until Pharaoh finally said yes. God can do all things. 

Activity #2: Play with Play Dough

Directions 

Set out play dough. Provide rolling pins and animal-shaped cookie cutters. Remind your kids that Moses had been a shepherd and cared for sheep. Point out other animals your preschoolers will hear about in today’s Bible story. 

Say 

One of God’s punishments on the Egyptians was against their horses, donkeys, camels, cows, sheep, and goats. God used these punishments against Egypt to rescue His people. 

EXTRA TIPS

  • Start the morning working on the coloring sheet and activity page.

  • As time permits, do one activity before the Bible Story Video and one activity afterward, to help reinforce the message.

  • Encourage your preschooler to memorize the Key Verse, Hosea 13:4b.
