Torah Tots and Trees

Tu Bshvat -15th of the Hebrew month of Shvat is a day that marks the beginning of a "new year' for trees. This is needed for certain Mitzvahs pertaining to the trees and their fruit.  

This week we focused on how WE are like the trees!

Our beautiful Tu B'shvat bulletin board made by our friends.

Thank you Hashem for the trees!

Leah, helping us demonstrate how even our bodies resemble the trees. 

While talking about roots we did an experiment putting celery in blue liquid to watch how it slowly went up the celery and made it blue!

Yossi, showing us how we can drink water like roots using a straw!

Just like a tree starts off like a little seed, we looked at yossi's baby picture and noticed how much he has grown.

Tree sensory art fun!

Working hard on Tu B'shvat projects.

Trees give us delicious fruit, our 'fruit' to Hashem is our Mitzvahs. We wrote Mitzvahs on fruit pictures and placed it on their arm 'branches'.

On Tu B'shvat, we eat the 7 fruits of Israel. Avraham creating a fig for his '7 fruits man'.

Thank you Morah Malka, for practicing our Tu Bshvat song under the tree for the Grandparents day!

Fun in the sun!
