At TBZ we believe that Jewish education for our children is an important part of creating committed, educated Jews. To that end, our Yeladim committee has been creating opportunities for our children to become literate in Hebrew, holidays, Jewish lifecycle, and tefillot.
The emphasis of our programs is on family participation. Every second Shabbat we hold teaching sessions for children on Judaica and Torah, concurrent with the adult services. After their meetings the kids come downstairs to join their parents in shul. During the week we hold tutoring sessions on Judaica and Hebrew for children ranging from ages five to eleven, financed by those families participating. We also hold monthly b'nai mitzva meetings, in which young people preparing for b'nai mitzvot discuss Judaism and social issues. Finally, we have several family-oriented services during the year, on the High Holy Days and selected Shabbatot.
All these activities are coordinated by the Yeladim Committee, which we invite all interested members to join.
Our kids are growing up to become valued participants in our community. They're showing us how to follow out the scripture, "Teach these words to your children" — and in a caring, fun and meaningful way.
