We referenced the following Biblical passages: Exodus 1-2. Hey-O Kids Curriculum’s primary goal with the Stories of the Bible animation is to tell the stories from God’s word accurately and in a way that is engaging to children of all ages.This is Moses. Moses was a descendent of Joseph’s brother Levi. Joseph and his brothers had many children and grandchildren who lived happily in Egypt.Eventually, a new Pharaoh came to power who knew nothing of Joseph or what he had done. This Pharaoh feared the Israelites because of there were a great number of them living in Egypt. So he wanted to put a stop to their prosperity. Pharaoh made the Israelites slaves, he made them work long hard hours building up Egyptian cities. But his plan didn’t work, and the Israelites grew more in number and strength. So Pharaoh made a rule that no Israelite boy would be allowed to live in Egypt. This is where Moses’ story begins. When Moses was born, his mother saw that he was a special baby and she kept him hidden for three months. But when she could no longer keep him a secret, she made a basket and put him in the Nile River among the reeds. Moses’ sister stayed to watch what would happen to her baby brother, and soon the Pharaoh’s daughter came to the edge of the river. When she saw the basket, she sent her servant to get it. When she saw the baby she felt sorry for him thinking that he must be a Israelite baby who wasn’t supposed to live.Then Moses’ sister asked the princess if she would like her to find a Israelite woman to take care of the baby. So Moses’ sister went and got her mother. Moses own mother took care of him until he was old enough to live in the Pharaoh’s house where the princess adopted him as her son. And so Moses, a Israelite boy who wasn’t supposed to live, became the adopted grandson of the Pharaoh and lived in the palace as God prepared him for a great destiny that was only just starting to unfold.
