10 Plagues of Egypt Craft

One of the amazing aspects of the story of the Exodus in Scripture is that through their rescue and journey, God teaches his people who he is and how to worship him.

The story of the 10 plagues of the Exodus is found in the book of Exodus chapters 7-12. The story begins with the calling of God’s prophet Moses. Moses addresses the Pharaoh of Egypt, telling him to let God’s people go. Over and over, the hard-hearted Pharaoh refuses, even while God brings plagues upon the Pharaoh and the Egyptians. As he brings the plagues, God teaches both the Egyptians and his people that the Egyptian idols are dead and useless, while God is powerful, sovereign, and our Savior.

This fun craft will allow your kids to construct a wheel of the ten plagues of the Exodus.

Why Did the Exodus Happen?

Learn all about God’s character through a major event in the history of Israel: the Exodus. God’s people had been in slavery in Egypt for hundreds of years. But God had promised their ancestors that the people of Israel would have their own land someday. So, they cried out to God and he heard them and rescued them. He used a shepherd and his brother to lead a nation of slaves in opposition to the most powerful ruler of the world’s most powerful kingdom.

What happened next was not a battle between Moses and Pharaoh. Nor was it a battle between the Israelite God and the gods of the Pharaohs. It was not a battle at all, but a punishment from the Creator of the Universe in the form of ten plagues–diseases or judgments.

Christian History Matters for Our Kids.

History matters. Now, more than ever, we see how important it is for our children to know and understand history and the Bible.

Here’s why:

  • God is the sovereign ruler of all things. It’s important for our kids to see his hand in the history of nations and in the lives of both peasants and kings. 
  • Christian history is the story of our family history. Our kids get to see how people who love Jesus follow him.
  • Understanding history can help our kids learn historic and biblical theology. They learn what the Bible says and what that means for us. They also see when the study of Scripture has taken important turns that have changed the Church.   
  • Reading Christian biographies and history can be a wonderful way for kids to think outside their own time and culture. God’s Church spans centuries and includes people from every nation.    
  • Christian biographies help kids consider their own faith, walk with Jesus, and the impact their witness may one day have on others–and on history. 

Elementary-aged kids need middle grade resources that are fun, a little sassy, and that teach valuable lessons.
