The Golden Calf

This morning's lesson (quick version) was on the story of Moses going to Mt. Sinai and the people getting impatient and asking Aaron to make them a golden calf to worship instead.  So then Moses comes down, gets angry, throws and breaks the tablets, grinds up the calf to powder and throws it in the water, and makes the Israelites drink the water.  So we made our own calves out of edible play dough, and then ate them.

Justin really got into this!  He didn't even wait to make the calf. 

He licked the dough to test it.


He did a little smacking and pushing.


And then he dug right in!


Travis took a little while longer to decide how to make his calf.  It took some effort and a little tongue hanging out!


Then it was completed and ready for eating.  He decided that it didn't taste very good.  I had to explain that that was kind of the point...
