How to make a Moses basket



I got dried cattail leaves and weaved them together to make a little Moses basket. It was very fun, but at the end I couldn't really do it.
We read about Moses in our Egermeier's Bible Story Book. We didn't have handy any bulrushes as his mother used, so we gathered some cattails from a ditch. As you can see, we did this project awhile ago, on a warm October day. I built the base and taught Addy how to weave in the sides. It later crumbled apart before she had a chance to float it down the river in town as she wanted.
