Title: weekend bag/toy/book ideas Post by: Sandilev on June 18, 2008, 05:22:56 PM Looking for ideas of what special item I can send home with girls on a rotational basis over the weekend
Title: Re: weekend bag/toy/book ideas Post by: yaelaldrich on June 19, 2008, 09:50:03 AM Have you ever read the book "The Shabbat Box" by Leslie Simpson? Granted, it's not a "frum" book, but there is nothing halachically unacceptable in it (aside from the mixed class -- which could be 4-5 year olds). Their teacher has a special box decorated and filled with a grape juice and challah, candlesticks etc to celebrate Shabbos. The main character loses the box on Friday afternoon and then spends motzaei Shabbos making a new one. When he returns to school on Monday, he shows the class what he made and then the teacher shows he she found the original. Now the class has two Shabbat boxes to share.
I plan to use this book as a springboard for a Jewish children's story hour I will be starting soon. Yael Aldrich Title: Re: weekend bag/toy/book ideas Post by: Sandilev on June 26, 2008, 10:57:41 AM Thank you for your idea

They would then right a story with their parents about what the bear did with them and we would all read it on Monday morning.
