hi
I am usually teaching secular subjects to kids aged 6-10, but I have recently started to learn chavrusa with a 14 year old girl (neviim, parshah etc.) and was asked to teach a 4 year old boy koydesh once a week. this boy has a jewish father and a non jewish mother. first I thought it is not ok to teach a halakhically non-jewish kid yiddishkayt, but since our rav set us up and he says that I may teach him EVERYTHING, I just do as I was told and the kid loves it!
so far we have learned for several months, and things progress nicely. we celebrated chanukkah together, we had a tu bishvat seder,we sang songs, coloured in pictures, I read middos-related stories to him, we crafted tseddakah boxes etc.


I want to start learning chumash with him... I thought to begin with avraham avinu.
I have no clue how to plan the lesson, though. the kids I usually teach are older
any idea is very welcome!!!

thx in advance
ariela

Tell him the story about Avraham Avenui when he was a little boy and discovered Hashem by himself and how he was watching his father's store and broke the idols.

Who Is The Builder by Genendal Krohn. Absolutely!
(Is the pask because the boy might convert?)

When Avraham was a small boy of three, he looked at the stars and the seas, he thought the creator was in the sky, the moon or the sun so high........
