Ten Plagues Adventure A fun activity to represent the ten plagues can be reenacted. Ten days before Passover begins, do something in your home to represent each one of the ten plagues. Here are a few examples. Be creative and make up your own symbols. 1. Nile waters turning to blood --put red food coloring in the water glasses at the dinner table, in the bathroom sinks, in the dog's water bowl, and anywhere else you can think of. 2. The frogs--Use green construction paper to cut out roundish frogs with thin green legs. Bend the legs to make the frogs look as if they are jumping. Put them everywhere, in cereal boxes, in the shower, refrigerator, drawers, etc. 3. The lice--Use a hole punch to make many small white "dots" out of plain white paper. Scotch tape them on your body and leave them on for a few hours. The appearance and irritation will make you think of itching lice. 4. The flies-- Use clear scotch tape to tape pepper or small "dots" of black construction paper in different areas of the house, the windows, the bathroom mirrors, etc. 5. Disease afflicting the Egyptian livestock--put stuffed animals in different areas of the house, upside down. 6. Boils--Use a hole punch to make many small red ÿdotsÿ out of red construction paper (or cut out circles). Cover each other with boils by scotch taping them on your body and leave them on for a few hours. The appearance and irritation will make you think of the boils. 7. Hailstorm--Put ice cubes around the outside of your house, the porch areas and on the outside window sills. 8. Locusts-- Use brown construction paper to cut out oval-looking locusts. Put them everywhere as you did the frogs (you'll even think of some new places to surprise your family). 9. Darkness--Tape brown paper bags over all the windows, draw all draperies to keep it dark in the daytime, or don't turn on any lights in the evening. 10. Put red ribbon on the sides and top of door post of your house to avoid the death plague. When the neighbors ask what the ribbon is for you can witness to them! biblicalholidays.com If anyone has a boil could you please scan it so we can make them more realistic? joelle

Poet, Nope, I didn't take the test..... Guess I'm afraid I'll find out I either have to live as a saint or a sinner.... And I'm living my confused life somewhere between the two....and for some reason it seems natural. Ahhh, but that silly little show, Touched by an Angel,.....it annoyed me too, but I still find it interesting that my mother was so hooked on it....who knows what that means...oh my, could it possibly mean that we're all different and have different perspectives on life based on our life experiences and where we are in life at any given point in time????????? And I meant no offensive by mentioning how my mother looked forward to seeing that show.... Greta
