Judaica - Passover Ten Plagues (1st and 2nd)

Passover is one of my favorite holidays. It is the holiday where we have a festive meal with family and friends and we participate in the story of Passover. In our home it doesn't matter what age you are, everyone gets to participate. I have always tried to make my Passover Seder creative and interactive with crayons and stickers.  In 2001 I made our own Haggadahs that included coloring pages designed for everyone. We still use them and cherish every page that was colored by friends and family. 
This year I wanted to make something to decorate our table.  I will paint ten   4 X 4 canvas blocks to represent the Ten Plagues. I will make and post two a day for the next 5 days.
Can you guess which plague these blocks represent?
