Munchkin Minyan, ages 0–5, is a Saturday morning Shabbat service full of song, spirit and stories, with Rabbi Rachel Greengrass. (Watch Munchkin Minyan Video)
Created for the minniest of minyaneers, we will celebrate Shabbat in a way that brings joy and helps our little ones to develop their sense of sight, hearing, gross motor control, practice crawling, walking, singing, clapping, dancing and develop their sense of wonder, their connection to Judaism and sense of family. (A minyan is a group of 10 or more who gather together to pray.)
Come meet Abraham, our puppet story teller, and learn some Torah, and get to know other families with little ones. This is a worship service so there is no fee. We hope you will bring your friends and relatives and give us your suggestions for making this new program a success.
Jewbilee
In these sessions we will have parent discussions about how Judaism can enhance your family experience while helping our babies to develop the senses through visual and auditory exercises, song and movement, tummy time and more!
Join Rabbi Rachel Greengrass on scheduled Sunday mornings at 9:00 am, beginning again in May 2011. Jewbilee is free for Temple Beth Am members; $10 for non-members (First Session Free).
