Learning Together
Dynamic and enriching summer fun. Your child will enjoy choice time, group play, and water play all designed to foster a sense of belonging within our community. Toddlers are encouraged to try new things, learn new skills and build connections with their peers, teachers and their surroundings.
Creative and experiential programming introduce your child to Jewish traditions in ways that can be translated for your home. Visits from our clergy add a special warmth to our Shabbat blessings and celebrations. This is the first step in sharing the role children play in a vibrant community infused with Jewish values.
Learning Together
For children 12 – 30 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.
