Purim is almost here, and this week we prepared! Learning all about the special Mitzvos on Purim we found something similar between all of them. They all start with the letter Mem! We got into a lot of discussions of what starts with Mem (we have many friends who's name starts with that letter- Menacham, Mordechai, Mimi... and Modeh ani!
This week had extra joy in the days including Purim songs, dance parties, dress ups, and we enjoyed making all our Purim crafts!
Chana drawing for her Megillah the 4 Mitzvos!
Gragger making!
During circle time, Morah brought a Megillah out and we had a practice run on what to do when we hear the name Haman. Boy did they shake there graggers hard!
Creative mask making.
Purim costume match-it!

Hamantash Making!
We learned the Mitzva of Mishloach Manos; we put two different kinds of foods and give it to at least one friend. Our friends made a craft to show case this Mitzvah.
To learn about the big miracle of Purim, we used our bodies to go upside down. This is connected to the concept of Vinahafochu which means overturned. The kids understood how the whole Purim story just flipped around when the Jewish people were saved from Haman and it was him put on the gallows instead of Mordechai!
