DLTK's Bible Activities
Parting the Red Sea Craft

Thanks to Cindy for sending her craft idea to us!

This is a kids size Red Sea!  They can walk through it just like Moses did.

Materials:

  • A refrigerator box
    • ask at your local appliance store, to get it home it's okay to cut it in half.
  • Utility knife
  • Blue paint
  • Paint brush
  • Spray glue
  • Sand
  • Ribbon or twine
  • chairs (small chairs to hold the "sea" in place)
  • Optional: rectangle cloths for each child to be used as a headpiece and brown craft paper to be used for a staff.

Directions:

  • Cut off one side of the box, then using a utility knife cut "waves" along the top of the two sides.  (I used this with a 2 year old and found that I should not have cut the waves in because they are just the right size that the cut "waves" brushed their faces.)
     
  • Paint the sides blue and on the bottom spray glue and sprinkle sand all over the bottom so that it was "dry ground".
     
  • To keep it together  put ribbon, twine, anything so that you can tie the Red Sea between two lines of chairs.  (The chairs kept the box in the right position.)
     
  • Use rectangles of cloth for the children and tie it on their heads and use brown craft paper and roll it so that each child has a headpiece and walking stick to go through the Red Sea.
