Challah Baking Each Friday children from all divisions spend time shaping Challah for Shabbat, the dough is then taken home by the children to bake and enjoy at Shabbat Dinner. We use egg free dough made in a nut free facility. Jewish Theme Every morning each division spends some time learning about a Jewish subject. Through stories, games, prizes, and competitions, children will learn about subjects like respect for elders and parents, charity, Israel, prayer, saying thank you, Shabbat, holidays, and more. Note: The purpose of Jewish theme is to educate children on Jewish subjects and not to force them into observance. The FLJDC staff are very sensitive to this subject when teaching the material. Feel free to contact us to discuss this matter further.
