Judaism For Kids

Jewish folklore is full of vivid stories that both entertain and teach. We have selected for you a collection of tales and stories from the Talmud and Midrash, and rewritten them to suit the needs of children of Jewish culture and any other. Along with a large helping of gentle humor, these tales entertain while being infused with the perennial Jewish struggle for survival and dignity.

Children, kids, preschoolers, and toddlers will learn about the Jewish festival of lights with this educational book. It explains why Hanukkah is the celebration of hope and miracles, relating the story of the Maccabees, the destruction of the temple, the Menorah, and the miraculous oil. This book also explains how the traditional items are used (the hanukkiah, the candles, the Shamash, the kippa, the latkes, and the dreidel).

Jewish and Israeli holidays are a rich tapestry of celebrations that reflect both religious and historical aspects of Jewish culture. These holidays are deeply rooted in traditions, stories, and rituals that connect Jewish communities across the globe. While Jewish holidays have religious significance and often commemorate historical events, Israeli holidays specifically highlight the history and identity of the State of Israel.
