Learning Together
It’s never too early to feel good about being Jewish. Make memories and create community for your family that will last a lifetime. Learning Together introduces your toddler (and their grown-up) to the wonders of play-based learning, giving them the opportunity to become more comfortable with themselves and those around them. Our program is filled with joy, understanding and support for those taking their first steps into the classroom.
Learning Together
For children 6 – 36 months (and their grownups)
Learning Together classes introduce children to the richness of a school setting. Each session children experience different classroom activities, including free choice, group time, and playtime in our mini gym. All classes incorporate celebrations of Jewish holidays and Thursday/Friday classes celebrate Shabbat with a special visit from our clergy.
