Interactive Pesach experience...

In order to bring Pesach to life, before going on to the playground yesterday, the Morahs explained that there would be a sensory table out with sand and water for the children to build bricks, just like the Yidden had to in Mitzrayim! The children were initially scared to touch but most very quickly got over their fears and thoroughly enjoyed the messy play.


Shaina: I'm making a big brick!
It all began with building bricks for the Beis Hamikdash. Of course, age appropriately, the children very quickly switched to building tents and making cakes with sprinkles etc...


Bryna: I don't like this sand! It's so messy!

At the same time there was another of the same table set up where the older children were playing. Some children from our class joined in the conversation...

Berel: That's the watery sandpit.
Zahara: When I grow up I'm going to be a queen.
Aaron: When I grow up I'm gonna be a policeman with a gun! A real gun.
Zahara: But only shoot not real families just bad people.
Aaron: I'm gonna shoot Pharaoh.
Zahara: And Haman and all the Mitzrim.
Elisheva: Not Haman!
Zahara: Yes because he wants to kill all the Jews.
Yaakov Akiva: And he wants the Jews to bow down to him.
Aaron: Hashem doesn't want anyone to die!
Zahara: Only the Mitzrim!

Due to the many rainy days the children have had to play inside! The children enjoy playing on the gym equipment which helps them develop their gross motor skills.
