9 PRESCHOOL LEADER GUIDE The Plagues (Exodus 7:14 12:32) Week 1 Gather (10 minutes) Center Time You may choose to set up one or both of these creative play centers where kids can play as they arrive in your classroom. Have helpers in each center to help children with the activities. Kids can stay in one center or travel to both. Playing with Bugs Let the kids use the magnifying glasses to study the insects. Have the kids tie the bandanas around their neck or heads like bug hunters. Use the butterfly nets to pretend to catch butterflies. Have the kids count and sort the bugs. They can pretend to have the insects fly around the room. If you have real insects for the kids to study, be sure the kids know that the insects need to stay in their containers. Coloring Center Provide copies of The Plagues Coloring Page A, blank paper, and markers or crayons for each kid. Be sure to write their names on their drawings before moving to Circle Time.

God sent 10 plagues to the people of Egypt. We are going to clean up and get ready while I count to 10. One. Two... Circle Time Have the kids sit in a circle. Hand one kid a fly swatter, and you keep the other. There are all kinds of flies and bugs in our story. Does anyone know what this is? It s a fly swatter. We are going to welcome each other with a fly swatter welcome. I ll start. Say to the kid with the other fly swatter, Welcome. God loves you! We ll gently swat the fly swatters and pass them to the next kids. Continue until everyone receives a fly swatter welcome. New fly swatters God s people in Israel were not happy. They wanted to be free. They called out to Pharaoh, who was the king, Let us go! And Pharaoh said, No, no, no! Split the group in half. Have half of the kids say, Let us go! Let the other half say, No, no, no! Say it loud! Say it softly. Switch sides and say it again. The Plagues 171
10 Prayer Time Let s share a bug prayer. After each thing I say, we ll all buzz or make any bug sound that we can think of. We will end by saying, Amen. Dear God, (buzz) Thank you for watching over us. (buzz) Thank you for freeing Moses and his people. (buzz) We love and praise you for being strong and mighty. (buzz) Amen. Open the Bible (10 Minutes) The Plagues Storytelling God sent 10 plagues to make Pharaoh let the people go free. God made the river red and smelly. Let s cover our noses. Eew! God sent frogs.

We can find out when Pharaoh finally let the people go. Take out your Spark Story Bible and open to The Plagues on pages Read the story out loud and point to the corresponding pictures. Look for Squiggles the caterpillar in each picture. Ask kids what they think Squiggles is feeling or doing. Encourage them to make a face or move like Squiggles.

Lay the paint shirts and towels where they can be easily accessed. Help the kids put on paint shirts. Give each kid a piece of paper and sprinkle some red tempera paint on it. Give everyone an ice cube. God sent plagues to Egypt so Pharaoh would let the people go. One thing that God sent was hail. The cold hail rained down on the people and animals and crushed the plants. God made the river turn red and smelly so the people could not swim or wash in it. God is very powerful. The ice cube reminds us of the hail and the red paint reminds us of the red water. Use the ice cube like a paint brush. Paint red all over your paper. Take a rest when your hand gets cold. Have you ever painted with an ice cube before? Let the kids paint with their hands if the ice cubes melt. Be ready to wash hands right away. This will be messy!

12 s n a c k: Bugs Before serving any food, always check with caregivers for kids who have food allergies. Provide an alternative if necessary. We are going to make frogs for our snacks today. God sent so many frogs to plague the Egyptians that there were frogs everywhere! Hand each kid a vanilla wafer on a napkin and have frosting within reach. Show them how to spread a little frosting on the bottom of their vanilla wafers. Set two pretzel twists with the loopy side out on the napkin and set the vanilla wafer frosting side down on the pretzels. The loopy sides of the pretzels will be the legs. Use a little frosting to attach the raisins to the top of the vanilla wafer for eyes. You could use chocolate chips or small candy for the eyes instead of raisins. Enjoy your frogs! They will taste lots better than real frogs! Vanilla wafers Frosting Mini pretzel twists Red juice Cups Plastic knives Napkins Raisins, chocolate chips, or small candy God also turned the river red. Our juice makes us think of the red river that God made. God can do anything! Send (5 minutes) Good-bye Time Have the group stand in a circle. Give everyone a fly swatter.

Tell the kids that the animals are sick and need someone to take care of them. Encourage them to use the supplies to tend to the animals. Invite the kids to wear the masks as they work with the animals. Coloring Center Provide copies of Coloring Page The Plagues D, blank paper, and markers or crayons for each kid.

Hand one kid a fly swatter, you keep the other. There are all kinds of flies and bugs in our story. Does anyone know what this is? It s a fly swatter. We are going to welcome each other with a fly swatter welcome. I ll start. Say to the kid with the other fly swatter, Welcome. God loves you! We ll gently swat the fly swatters and pass them to the next kids. Continue until everyone receives a fly swatter welcome. Turn the flashlight on and put your hand in front of it. What happens when I put my hand in front of the flashlight? It makes a shadow, doesn t it? Once, God made the sun go away and there were shadows everywhere. It was dark. Pharaoh still did not let the people go. Let s all make shadows with our hands and the flashlight. Make sure that everyone gets a turn to make a shadow. New fly swatters Flashlight The Plagues 191
30 Prayer Time Let s share a bug prayer. After each thing I say, we ll all buzz or make any bug sound that we can think of. We will end by saying, Amen. Dear God, (buzz) Thank you for watching over us. (buzz) Thank you for freeing Moses and his people. (buzz) We love and praise you for being strong and mighty. (buzz) Amen. Open the Bible (10 Minutes) The Plagues Storytelling Set Up: Drape the bed sheet so that the kids can sit under it. Turn on your flashlight. God sent many plagues to the Egyptians. One time, God sent something to cover the sun so that all of Egypt was in darkness. Let s pretend the flashlight is the sun. Cover it with your hand. The people in Egypt couldn t see anything. They couldn t see their families. They couldn t see their friends. They couldn t see their animals. They couldn t even see across the street to their neighbor s house. It was dark everywhere. The people were very frightened. They did not know if the sun would ever shine again. How would their crops grow? How would they find their animals? Would they ever be able to travel to see friends and neighbors again? This was very scary. God kept Egypt dark for three days. Then God let the sun come out. Uncover the flashlight. Do you think that Pharaoh let the people go? Spark Story Bible Flashlight Blanket or bed sheet Let s read in our Spark Story Bible to find out what happens next. Would you like to stay in the dark to read the story? Or should we come out into the light? Take out your Spark Story Bible and open to The Plagues on pages Read the story out loud and point to the corresponding pictures. Look for Squiggles the caterpillar in each picture. Ask kids what they think Squiggles is feeling or doing. Encourage them to make a face or move like Squiggles. Ask the following questions, allowing time for kids to answer: How long was it dark in Egypt? (three days) What would be the scariest thing if the sun went away? 192 Workshop Leader Guides
31 Activate Faith (25 minutes) g a m e: Let Them Go Oh, No! For this Red Light, Green Light-type game, choose one kid to be Moses and another to be Pharaoh. Give them simple props or costumes. Have the other kids stand across the room from Pharaoh and Moses. You are going to try to sneak past the Pharaoh to get to Moses. Pharaoh will stand between Moses and the rest of the kids. Pharaoh is watching over his slaves. He can see them working. Moses will say, Pharaoh, let my people go. When Pharaoh turns around to listen to Moses, he will have his back to you and the rest of you can try to sneak up to them. Then Pharaoh will turn back around and say, Oh, NO! If Pharaoh sees you moving, you will have to go back to the beginning. If you make it to Moses, you get to be the next Pharaoh. The second one to get past Pharaoh will get to be the next Moses. Continue playing until all the kids get to be Moses or Pharaoh. Costumes or simple props for Moses and Pharaoh a r t: Glow Bracelets Set Up: Fill the bead containers with the glow-in-the-dark pony beads and set them where the kids can reach them easily. Cut the lacing materials or give each kid a chenille stem. One of the plagues that God sent made the sun disappear, so there was darkness everywhere. The people were very frightened when it was dark like nighttime, in the middle of the day. Let s string these beads and make a bracelet, to remind us of the time when it was dark in the middle of the day. Help the kids string the beads and twist the chenille stem to make a bracelet. If using the lacing, help kids tie their bracelets around their ankles or wrists. Put all beads away after use, and make sure kids don t place the beads in their mouths. Glow-in-the-dark pony beads Chenille craft stems or rattail lacing Containers for beads s n a c k: Cover the Sun Before serving any food, always check with caregivers for kids who have food allergies. Provide an alternative if necessary. Pass out two crackers, a slice of cheese on a napkin and a cup of water to each kid. Let the kids use the cookie cutter or spice jar cover to cut a circle out of their cheese. Let s set a cracker on our napkin. Does everyone have a circle of cheese? Let s pretend the cheese is the round sun. Set your sun on one of your crackers. One day, the sun was shining brightly in Egypt. Then God sent a plague to cover the sun. Use another cracker to cover your sun. Now it is dark all over Egypt. Let s eat our crackers and sun snack. The people in Egypt did not like it when the sun was covered. They wanted to see the sun again. You can eat the rest of your cheese. Round crackers Cheese slices Napkins Water Cups Round cookie cutter (or use the top of a spice bottle or jar) The Plagues 193

Encourage the kids to look sad and to pretend to work. That must be it. Don t worry. God is with you. Keep working. Spark Story Bible Bible time costumes You look so tired! Moses is asking Pharaoh to let you go. God sends plagues to help Pharaoh make up his mind. God sent the bugs and flies. Maybe this time Pharaoh will let you go. Oh, no! Not again. He says no. Keep working. God sends the hail and the red water. God makes the animals sick. Surely Pharaoh will let you go. Not yet. Keep working. Finally, God sends the sickness and sores. That will certainly persuade Pharaoh to let you go. Moses comes with good news. You can stop working! Pharaoh has let you go! You are free. Now you look happy. Now you can cheer. Let s quick go home and pack up all our things before Pharaoh changes his mind. Cheer while you pack! Let s see what the Spark Story Bible says about the Plagues that God sent. Would you like to leave your costumes on? I think you can listen with your costumes on. Take out your Spark Story Bible and open to The Plagues on pages Read the story out loud and point to the corresponding pictures. Look for Squiggles the caterpillar in each picture.
