Families with Young Children
Tot Shabbat
Our youngest participants and their parents or caregivers enjoy meeting one Shabbat morning a month for tot Shabbat, consisting of stories, songs, and activities related to Shabbat or other holiday themes. This program is organized and led by parents on a rotating basis.
Teeny Tiny Tot Shabbat: An interactive Shabbat play program for kids age 4 and under.
Musical Tot Shabbat: A special musical Shabbat for kids 3 to 5.
Family Erev Shabbat Potluck and Service
We also offer a lively, musical erev Shabbat service with Rabbi Spitzer geared toward children 10 and younger. This is also a monthly program and is usually preceded by candle lighting and a potluck dinner. Both programs offer a lively, informal introduction to Shabbat rituals and community life for young children and their families. Bring the kids and come join us!
Friday, August 8, 6 pm
Candle-lighting and potluck dinner at 6pm, followed by a musical all-ages erev Shabbat service at 6:45 pm.
Friday, September 5, 6 pm
Looking ahead to fall, please join us for a special Shabbat open house event. Candle lighting and potluck dinner at 6 pm followed by an all-ages service at 6:45 pm.
