Explained for Children

Imagine you're on a big adventure with your family. You start at a special place and have to go through a scary forest, but your parents tell you it's okay because they know the way. You walk and walk until you reach a new place. That's like what the Israelites did, but their parent was God, and they trusted Him all the way.
