Tu B'Shevat Celebration














We invited Ganon Bet to join us in our classroom on Wednesday for a joint Tu B'Shevat seder. We drank four cups, just like we do at the Pesach seder, beginning with white grape juice to symbolize the winter season, making the juice a little darker for each season. The children had an opportunity to taste all seven special foods that grow in Israel (shivat ha-minim.) We sang songs together and had a great celebration for the trees! The festivities continued in the afternoon with a scavenger hunt outdoors, and a birthday party for the trees in the early childhood hallway with the other classes. Happy Birthday, trees!!!
