Pre Pesach Preparations







As Pesach approaches, the children engage in many hands on experiences. They tried squeezing grapes in a cup to make juice, and then tasted the fruits of their labor. They were so excited they asked to make juice again! They all commented that it was delicious.



We also experimented with yeast and then made challah! Independently the children braided their challot and then we baked them. The best part was eating the challah!

Have any of you ever made your own grape juice?
