I love to create new materials! It has greatly helped the longevity of our traditions to mix in some fresh ideas and help us celebrate our main lessons but in a new way.
This year I have created a FREE pack of activities to help create a way for your children to re-tell and re-live the stories of Moses and Jesus with their own hands! My 14 year old son helped me to create these simple crafts and I hope it will add depth and time to “dwell” on these important lessons and spiritual concepts!
Are you a visual or auditory learner?
Then check out our Activities Demonstration Video !
How could you use these materials?
*Note from the video – Lesson 5 is more about a New Exodus – out of Babylon and exile (captivity again) and back into the land of blessing, so this could be exchanged for the symbolism of – Out of Egypt to freedom. As an alternative picture, you could draw Babylon (the Ishtar gate) and the Temple, being back into the land of blessing.
We would love to hear any testimonials & are excited when we hear of homes & churches using these materials to start new Christ-centered traditions all around the world! Would you share your story with us?

One final thought …
As we enter into this season of Lent and Passover and Easter and Resurrection Day, there are so many ways to worship and to be distracted from spiritual reflection. We must be intentional to achieve the one we desire more.
These occasions on the church calendar can become such natural timing to weave in teaching. We have the opportunity to create what our children will think of as normal. And their normal will be what they pass on to their children, naturally.
It may sound like a distant goal, but I hope you will consider this season, as you weave in new traditions, or persevere with ones you’ve already chosen, that your grandchildren may someday sit at your child’s feet and listen to they way they tell a story in the same manner you did, sing the song you ‘always sang’ or hang up a meaningful symbol that you gave meaning to.
What we choose today may have a lasting effect and what we craft as our normal may change the course of our families’ future for eternity.
I believe the effort will be worth it.
