Happy Tu B'shvat and grandparent's party!

Our friends have been working really hard on their Tu B'shvat art pieces. First, they painted the sky than with branches from our dried up grape vine they created their very own unique tree. Lastly, fun wooden buttons became the leaves and fruits of their gorgeous tree. 

Yosef, concentrating on where he wanted to place his buttons.

Yocheved Sara, using a sponge to help make a poster green for their Tu B'shvat hats!

This week we focused on the 7 fruits of Israel.

Getting to come up and taste some of them was a fun treat.

The grapes were a hit!

Using tweezers helped our  friends try to remove seeds from a big squash.

Teamwork makes the dream work.

We divided a beautiful tree picture into different part so all our friends were able to create their part on a canvas and we will be putting it together to create a Tu B'shvat scene. 

We want to thank seniors from our community for coming to our party for those who didn't have grandparents close by.

"Ki adam etz hasadeh" A man is like a tree!

If a tiny tree seed gets the proper care it can grow into a beautiful tree.

We started off by understanding how we start as babies.

Chaya Mushka, showed us pictures of her as a baby and the millstones that happened as she grew. 

Baby Sholom, helped us by showing our friends how he does tummy time. Ariella tried it too!

Eli and Levi, helping take care of Sholom by feeding him and burping him.

Yosef showing us a little seed. It's unbelievable how something so tiny can get so big! 

Learning how we are like a tree!

After understanding how we grow just like a tree grows with proper care, Ayal showed us how our body parts can look like a tree.

His favorite part was the roots taped onto his toes!

Zalman, proudly showed us how his 'fruits' are his Mitzvahs that he does. "I wear Tzsis", "I clean my toys and say a Bracha on my fruit leather."

Practicing cutting big banana leaves!

Our sensory table turned into a seed planting station.
