Clever paper engineering turns Jewish time
into interactive educational fun!
This vibrant and colorful novelty book
offers a unique tool for familiarizing children with the Jewish
calendar. Covering all aspects of Jewish time, it introduces
young readers ages 3 to 6 to night and day, the seven-day week,
Shabbat, the Hebrew months, and seasons and special dates.
Young readers will have fun as they learn
about Jewish time through interacting with the text. They can
slide the sun down, pull the tab to “light” Shabbat
candles, turn a wheel to watch three stars come out, play with
reflections in the flame of the Havdalah candle, rotate the
phases of the moon to find the new month, match each season
with its Hebrew and English name, lift the flaps to learn
Hebrew dates, and much, much more.
“A gorgeous interactive book with
wonderful content! A great way to introduce children—and
their parents—to the rhythms and Hebrew names of Jewish
time.”
