Shavuot Holy-Day Fun Breakout Rooms! For 0-12 year olds
Monday, June 2, 10:45 am-12:15 pm (approx)
Bring the whole family to Shavuot Yom Tov services, and have your children experience our fun and engaging breakout activities!
Our Little Blossoms (ages 0-3) will bring a grownup along and enjoy creative music and stories with our songleader Ayla Smolash.
Older children (ages 4-11) will have the opportunity to participate in a special program in partnership with L’Dance! These breakout activities will allow children to get a taste of the L’Dance Shavuot Break Camp, which includes Shavuot crafts, learning, movement and games.
Children who participate in either breakout room will rejoin their families in the Main Sanctuary for the conclusion of services and for kiddush lunch afterwards, featuring dairy goods in honour of the festival. We are excited to see our young friends of all ages mark the Yom Tov together with our congregation.
