The Tabernacle – Baby Bible Lesson (Exodus 25–40) | Free Printable for Ages 0–2

Exodus 25–40

Trueway Baby Bible lesson for ages 0–2

About This Baby Bible Lesson

This free printable Baby Bible lesson gently introduces babies and toddlers to the Bible passage of the Tabernacle in Exodus 25–40. Through simple words, repeated actions, high-contrast visuals, and sensory interaction, little ones begin to understand one clear truth: God is with me.

Designed especially for ages 0–2, this lesson focuses on connection, repetition, and early faith development. Babies experience the Bible passage through movement, sound, touch, and loving interaction—helping them feel secure while engaging with God’s Word.

The lesson introduces the Tabernacle through simple action cards, including pretending to give a gift, making a hand-roof sign for “house,” wiggling fingers like a flame, rubbing hands to wash, waving arms like a cloud, putting hands together to pray, and stretching arms wide to remember that God is with us everywhere.

The lesson also includes a “Tent Play” sensory activity, where babies can crawl into a small tent or reach inside colourful fabric while hearing that the Tabernacle was a special place where God lived among His people.

How This Lesson Works

Trueway Baby lessons are short, flexible, and repeatable. Sessions are baby-led and designed to support bonding between caregiver and child while introducing early faith rhythms.

Each session includes:

• One simple spoken key phrase: “God is with me.”
• A gentle action song: “Pray, Meet, Say Sorry” (optional tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb)
• One simple sign action: “House”
• A sensory activity: “Tent Play,” using a small pop-up tent, colourful fabric, or a gold-coloured box
• High-contrast visual cards for ages 0–6 months, including a tent, lampstand, cloud, and washing bowl
• Simple action cards retelling the Bible passage with movement and repetition
• A short, calming prayer thanking God for wanting to be close to us

Everything is designed to build repetition, security, and joyful interaction with God’s Word.

Watch & Sing Along

“Pray, Meet, Say Sorry”
(Optional Tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb)

It was a place to pray to God,
Pray to God, pray to God.
It was a place to pray to God,
God was near them.

It was a place to meet with God,
Meet with God, meet with God.
It was a place to meet with God,
God was near them.

It was a place to say “I’m sorry,”
Say “I’m sorry,” say “I’m sorry.”
It was a place to say “I’m sorry,”
God forgave them.

Singing together supports bonding, rhythm, and early language development while reinforcing the key truth of the lesson.
