Pesach unit
This week our block center turned into Mitzrayim, Egypt.
Before learning the story of Pesach we watched our friends start building together. The teamwork and communication came naturally.
Feeling proud of our work was part of the process.

We then introduced King Paroh. All of a sudden, the environment changed. He was just forcing the friends to keep working, there was no encouragement or nice words.
Our friends continued to build but they started realizing what was going on long ago for the Jewish people. It boiled down to having no choice.

Especially at a young age of development having our own autonomy is a critical piece to our growth. Taking away choices is not what Hashem wants for us.
This was not a way for the Jewish people to live. We needed Hashem to help us out.

Some building in our sensory table as well!

Hashem sent Moshe the Jewish leader to help us out.
One of our friends role playing Moshe caring for others.
Akiva, who played Moshe offering water to Yocheved for working so hard under the hot sun in Mitzrayim.
Hashem, helped us in this situation by sending the ten plagues.
We focused on the first two.
Ruevi, serving the King Paroh water and lo and behold there was blood!
He quickly asked Moshe to talk to Hashem to take it away but than changed his mind!
Zalman, helped us with the second plague of frogs. The King was not too happy to see frogs in his breakfast bowl.

We love when our friends help with our beautiful Pesach bulletin board.

The beautiful masterpiece!
Encouraging healthy eating by offering a variety of fruits and vegetables in the morning. It’s fascinating to see how children watch each other—when one child tries something new, others often feel braver to try it too. Some of our friends learned they like radishes.
