This week, Gan Aleph experienced bringing Bikurim to the Beit Hamikdash. After learning how the farmers would bring their first crops to thank Hashem, we reenacted this very special Mitzvah. The children took turns building the Beit Hamikdash using blocks, and created a wonderful holy structure. Then they took their fruits, placed them in a Bikurim basket and traveled around the room saying "thank you" to Hashem until they reached their destination. They each took turns placing fruit within our class Beit Hamikdash. What a great culminating activity it was to make yummy Bikurim salad for us to enjoy!
Love it!
