Pesach story continues in a hands on way..
After a week of acting as slaves building for King Paroh and getting a real feel of life in Mitzrayim it was time to learn about all the miracles Hashem did for us!
Elizabeth and Devorah leah getting quite used to the life in Egypt .
King Paroh needed to learn some lessons, it was time for Hashem to send the 10 plagues/ Makos!
(this was another way of phrasing the punishments we learned that everything we do has consequences)
King Paroh with frogs all over him and the Egyptians.
After going through only some of the Makos with the children it was now time to be reassured from Hashem and our leader Moshe. Kinh Paroh kept changing his mind and not letting us go it was quite frustrting!
This was a great opportunity to discuss and put in action about keeping our word!
Leaving Mitzrayim!
We all followed Moshe and he told us to quickly make something to eat for the trip out of Mitzrayim.
Matzah with only two ingredients was the fastest way to make food. Each
child got a piece of dough and felt the rush while having King Paroh in
the background!
Splitting of the sea!
Walking through the sea following Moshe!
The children had fun helping make the ocean scene with adorable fish made out of their hands.
Hashem performs more miracles in the sea!
1) Fruit trees were growing along side the water for the people to snack on while they traveled through the water!- we cut up real apples and each had a taste of some yummy fruit that the Jewish people might have eaten too!2) Delicious water for the thirsty people escaping Mitzrayim. Each child got a cup of water but we had to remind them - King Paroh is coming to change his mind lets get going!!
After we left the sea, King Paroh did not get to experience the miracle we did as the Sea closed in on all the Egyptians.
Thank you Hashem!
Just like the Jewish People we took our tamberines and danced thanking Hashem for letting us free to do what Hashem wants!
Mini Matzah factory
Our dramatic play area turned into a Matzah factory! The children helped make an oven and got right to work creating and cooking their own Matzah.
Rolling it flat!
Poking holes to make sure it doesn't rise.
We learned that Matzah has to be made within 18 minutes!
Aron helped us by marking our timer.
Levi bringing the ready Matzah to Seder table.
Working hard on our Haggadahs.
Enjoying making the last batch of Challah dough before Pesach!
