There are so many fun ways to celebrate Rosh Hashanah - The Jewish New Year! From yummy foods to DIYs to family outings, we share so many ways for your family to have a sweet new year!
It is the perfect time of year to have a small backyard party- and this party is all for my love of the season of spring! We’re decorating flower containers, making pet butterfly rocks (complete with a little habitat) and snacking on dirt pies. I even have a sweet spring-themed storybook to read to the kiddos too. Come join me at my spring party!
It's fun to extend the theme of growing and changing for the Jewish New Year by helping your children make their own butterfly wings!
The Hebrew word for butterfly is Par-Par. We thought it would be special for children to take a "butterfly" home from the butterfly garden, so it could watch over them as they grow and change throughout the New Year.
One of my favorite books for the Jewish New Year is Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar. While this might not have been written as a "Jewish book," the idea of growing and changing (like a caterpillar into a butterfly) is a Jewish theme for Rosh Hashanah.
