Moses grew from a helpless Hebrew infant to Egyptian royalty. Yet that wasn’t where God needed him. As a refugee, Moses was called to be the most significant prophet of the Old Testament. Through Moses, the Lord redeemed His people, established His covenant, and reminded the world that God will not forget those who follow Him.
When we look to God for help with our trials or opportunities to serve others, we don’t need to have wealth or status. God calls us as we are. He has always loved us and will never forget us.

We have some great activities and resources to help assist you in celebrating a Christ-centered Easter this year! We recommend picking the activities that work best for you and your family. We think just a few activities will allow you to celebrate Easter, but also allow you time to focus on our Savior and what He has done for us. Our hope is that you will find something meaningful for your family to help celebrate this special holiday!
Scripture Study
Read specific scriptures from Exodus chapters 1-5 to get a simplified story of Moses. As you read, use The Story of Moses instruction page to help your family act out the scriptures so it’s more engaging and fun for everyone. Have members of your family dress up as Moses, Aaron, and Pharaoh, and use some props as well. After you finish the story, explain how Heavenly Father teaches us about Jesus Christ in Moses’ story.
Hands-On Activity
Read Exodus 1:15-22 and 2:2-10. Then, discuss the courageous women who saved Moses and the midwives who saved many Hebrew boys from being killed. The women were very courageous because they could have been killed for disobeying the Pharaoh’s orders. Talk about how your family can have courage as you make a Cup of Courage. See the instruction page for details.
Coloring Page
Complete the Moses coloring page together. Read Exodus 2:1-10 and discuss how Moses was born to Levite parents and raised by Pharaoh’s daughter. Talk about how God had a plan for Moses even from his birth.

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams.
Family Activity
Play hide-and-seek with your child. As they search for you, call out their name. Afterward, repeat the game with other family members. Point out that when your child heard their name, they knew where to find you. Explain that just as we know when someone calls our name, Heavenly Father knows our names too because He loves each of us. When Jesus spoke to Moses, He called Moses by name—He said, “Moses, Moses.” Share the story of Moses and the burning bush from Exodus 3:1-6 to help illustrate this point. Write your child’s name on a large piece of butcher paper. Draw the letters of their name to look like a road. Let your child play with small toy cars, driving them along the letters of their name. Share your testimony that Heavenly Father knows each of us by name. When we listen for His voice and follow Him, He will guide us on the right path.

Moses grew from a helpless Hebrew infant to Egyptian royalty. Yet that wasn’t where God needed him. As a refugee, Moses was called to be the most significant prophet of the Old Testament. Through Moses, the Lord redeemed His people, established His covenant, and reminded the world that God will not forget those who follow Him.
Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers did not come after they had paid restitution or offered an apology. He forgave them the moment he realized they had changed from their jealous ways when they offered themselves in place of Benjamin for punishment. How overwhelming it must have been for Joseph to see such love amongst his brothers. His forgiveness came with no strings attached: “be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves” (Genesis 45:5).
In every moment of Joseph’s story, God was with him. From his brothers’ betrayal and serving Potiphar, to a friend of Pharaoh and the savior of his family, at no time was Joseph forgotten by God. Through the good and the bad, he trusted that God knew who he was and had faith that everything would be all right.
