I have a group I’ve grown with from infancy. I have a background in child development but didn’t grow up Frum, so while I know all kinds of activities I can do to help make sure my tiny friends grow up into well adjusted people, I’m not as sure of myself when it comes to teaching them to be proud yidden.

What are things you’ve done (or seen done) that are particularly meaningful for the kiddos and their parents?

We daven everyday (good morning train, modeh ani, netilat yadaim, Torah Torah, shema (we’re adding v’ahvta), and HaShem is here)

We’re working on our aleph beis (and will move on to English letters when we reach the end).

I used to do Parsha but I think I started too early, does anyone have experience of when it actually makes sense to do Parsha? Is it way to early to try to do calendar, apart from chagim?


Thanks in advance!!

Parsha usually starts after Yom Tov when it's story based, and less conceptual like Devarim is now.

It's a great time to discuss fall/trees/leaves/acorns and bees and apples and lead into Rosh Hashanah. So much outdoor time can be utilized and they learn so much experientially.

Any specific curriculums you’re familiar with? I have looked a lot but haven’t found anything comprehensive- just things for one Chag or another…. I’m not opposed to purchasing something if it’s good, hashkafically sound, and age appropriate.
