Parent questions
Watch the videos and read Exodus 2:1-10 with your family. Discuss these questions below:
How did Mose's mother put him in the river in a basket?

Think of someone God has placed in your life to take care of you. Who is it, and why are you thankful for that person?
Tell about a time you supported a friend in need.
God takes care of us. Around the world, and even in our neighborhoods, there are people who need support. God invites us to courageously care for people. We can be part of God’s plan for people’s lives. Moses’ mom and sister were part of God’s plan for others’ lives, and we can be, too. God takes care of us, so we care for others!
