Challah Baking

Every Friday the children braid their own challah to take home for Shabbat.

About

Benefits

Sensory play

Sticky dough and sprinkled flour make baking a rich sensory experience for little ones.

Following steps

Measuring and braiding teach children to follow a sequence from start to finish.

Family connection

Bringing their challah home gives families a shared Shabbat moment that started at the gan.

Shabbat traditions

Children learn why we bake challah and the blessings that go with it.

Come and see it in action.
