We bake. We cook. We eat. We enjoy.
Food is such an integral part of the Jewish experience, so we bring it into the classroom -- messy hands and all. Aside from offering the children a buffet of healthy snacks throughout day, we explore cooking and baking around Jewish holidays so that the children, for example, not only eat potato pancakes before Hanukkah, but they feel the oil on their hands, smell the frying pan, and hear the sizzling sounds.
